Hey there! Carmen Marshall here…
I’m a 20+ year network marketing expert, entrepreneur and creator of Soul Craft™: an industry-first approach to designing a wildly profitable life + business without sacrificing your integrity, sanity, or quality of life to make it happen.
Because here’s the thing: awkward + pushy tactics are out — and soulful strategies for growth are IN.
If you want to break through your current income plateau and grow your network marketing business in a way that feels good…
You’re in the right place.
There is a better, more authentic way to do network marketing.
So go ahead and dive into the training series above, and I’ll see you in the comments section below!
Hi Carmen, thank you so much for the first video and worksheet. The work sheet is hard for me but I am working on it. Gosh, we had our own biz for years and sold it 1 and a half ago but I had joined network marketing 2 years ago. I joined for fun, the discount, I sale athletic wear, it turned in to so much more,meeting some awesome people and I started making some income although I am getting burned out, working really hard to make the income and not enrolling like minded people. So of course I love your first video and worksheet but have ideas but not sure about my passions, thank you because I was at the jumping off point.
Hi Shon! I am so glad the 1st video helped and you’re going through the worksheet, even thought it feels a bit hard. It will really help you uncover some important things that will help you in your NWM business — and your life too — so well done on doing something that feels hard. So true about NWM being so much more eh? It’s so worth figuring out a way to do it that feels authentic and easeful — AND doesn’t burn you out. So glad you’re here! Carmen :)
Aloha Carmen. So lovely to see you again. (very long ago Conventions and cruises). I live on Salt Spring Island; writing this in Victoria.
I love your gentle ways and caring approach to people. That is the way I want to activate my business, not throw-everything-at-the-fan- social-media, even if it is so successful. I care about people, their health and happiness. And my passion is yacht racing. A crazy time for me to build my business when both caring and passion are greatly curtailed.
My AHA is that I give myself permission to be me and can continue to be me by going slowly until my world opens again, I don’t need to force myself to learn and chase social media.
What a beautiful start to your videos. Greatly looking forward to more. with love and light, Elizabeth
p.s. is it possible to make the print darker? grey is such a strain on the eyes.
So great to hear from you Elizabeth — not only a fellow Canadian but also writing from Victoria (my hometown no less!) This is such a great AHA – yes! Lean into being YOU and you don’t have to chase anything that doesn’t feel aligned. There are so many ways to build this business — focus your energy on the ones that feel right and that bring you joy. Thank you so much for the feedback too! Printing — the PDF’s are designed to print out in black and a very dark grey (they shouldn’t be hard to read) — could you try changing the settings on your printer? Let me know! Carmen xo
I love that you want me to do what is my passion! First!
Yes! Just so important Bertilla! So glad you’re here, Carmen xo
Do not put off what I love doing! Start living my passions NOW. This is so important Carmen and I absolutely love you for bringing this into Soulcraft and my life. This is going to take me to task with inner work, there are things I love but can no longer do…like ski jumping. At 53 these things change and I need to find new thrills. Instead of catching air on my skiis, maybe I can find a potters wheel. This is a process, I will trust it and take action, thinking about myself (instead of what’s best for everyone else) is taking action.
You are so welcome Micha. Yes, you are so right — doing more of what we love can change throughout the years (and circumstances like the year 2020!). You have such a great attitude about finding new things to peak your interest, curiosity and passion :)
Thanks Carmen, This is so for me… I’m real bad with confidence. My AHA moment is I can be myself… My action at this time is to figure out what I love to do. I’m retired, so I have time. I’m actually into Bible Studying. Right now COVID stops my being around people all the time. So I’ve been working through the internet. Any ideas?
Hi Karen! This is such a great aha and wonderful clarity on what you really enjoy and are passionate about. This is an ideal example of how you could center your NWM business around what you love. Step 1 — become a teacher, host or organizer of your Bible Study groups — which you can do online through Zoom. Which do you think you would rather be — the teacher, the host or the organizer? See you on the next video! Warmly, Carmen
Carmen,
I am back and starting over since I just retired.
My aha is still getting through the mental junk in my head and to work on consistency.
Actions step when the junk goes through my head think of something positive and replace it with the junk and do this everyday consistently.
I’m so glad you’re back and congratulations on the retirement! Love the AHA and the action step – consistency over time is so key :)
Hi Carmen! My aha would be “Our purpose is always connected to what we love”. This is the main reason why I have been so “off” in the last 2 years in my business. I wanted to show what I loved about my products, the success I had & show others what they could do for them. I want to create my NWM business around a niche instead of the general approach. Authenticity is huge for me. I believe I found my niche & now want to get things rolling!
Hi Lianne! Exactly! And you’ve found your niche – well done! I’m so glad you’re here and are keen to get things rolling. I’ll see you on the next vid! Carmen :)
Hello Carmen, my AHA moment was ” Get your Head Right” because my thought are all over the place. I do love my product, and the customers are very interested in my product. My action will be getting those negative thought out of my head. I am looking forward to the next video.
My aha aligning our businesses with our passions and cutting through the mental junk in our heads. I have too much mental junk that gets in my way. Your video is outstanding; I feel you were directing it to me because this is what I need to hear. I feel I am authentic bu now I wonder if I haven’t been.
I let people get in my way which creates no consistency for me. I want to make my business work. At one point it did then it went down the tubes.
Hi Renee! Such a great aha to get so clearly what is standing in the way. And know that if your business was working at one point, for SURE it will work again, with just tweaks — which you’ve already discovered some of them — nice work. I can feel your commitment and desire to really build your business. I’m so glad you’re here — and I’ll watch for you on Vid 2! Carmen xo
Wow your video just cleared my mind to all the clutter I had about My Network Marketing Company. I have been stuck on me for a while now 2 months and seeing this video has really showed me how many things I have to offer single moms like myself through this making business that I have. Thank you so so much! Looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos!!
Hi Amy! I’m so glad to hear that it cleared away all the clutter – what a great way to describe that! And now you can use that with your ideal customer / target market (single moms). You are so welcome and looking forward to seeing you on Vid 2! Carmen xo
Do what you love and are passionate about and it will draw people to you of like mind. Pursue your passions more often!
Great AHA and ACTION Step Eimi! So glad you’re here — see you on the next video! Carmen xo
My #1 ah-ha is that I can use my passions to grow my network marketing business. This is awesome news for me!
Yes! Such a relief to find that out eh Tracy? It will make everything so much easier (and fun). So glad you’re here — see you on the next video! Warmly, Carmen
Hello Carmen, my Aha from video 1 was Passion and Purpose. When I think about this it helps me to have clarity on what means so much to me and not being afraid to share with others!! Thank you love this so much!
Hi Dee, I’m so glad you’re loving this training! That’s a wonderful AHA, passion and purpose is the foundation of why we choose the biz and lifestyle that we do. I’m so happy that this helped you gain clarity. See you in the next vid :) Natasha – Soul Craft Team
My love of gardening and being “real”is exactly how I want to build my foundation of trust and passion for health!
Hi Terri! That’s a wonderful way to build your foundation – with passion and in integrity :) Love this AHA, see you in the next video Terri! Natasha :)
Lovely meeting you-enjoying it so far
Hi Tamara! So glad it’s resonating — and so glad you are here! Carmen :)
Hi there! My number 1 AHA moment was definitely the realization that my NWM biz should be a reflection of what matters to me. I have spent far too long trying to be everything to everyone, and I feel I haven’t been as genuine as I should be because I’m worried about possibly offending someone who may actually take interest
Bob! This is an incredible AHA – thank you so much for sharing this as I know others will resonate and be inspired by this too. I’m so glad you’re here — see you in the comments for Vid 2! Carmen :)
Hi! I don’t even have a business yet. I am a sell associate at a store, and I have the idea of selling different things, both online and a little store after.
I live in Miami and my favorite items are swimwear.
I am always afraid to start cause I am already 53 and my retirement is all I have.
Also I have a very negative husband.
Hi Ana! Can you start in a small way? The biggest thing that we regret are usually not things we do (we can chalk that up to getting experience), but the things we don’t do in life — so I would encourage you to follow your dreams, with baby steps. Could you work in swimwear store (maybe you are??), could you start with a NWM company to build a little bit of cash reserve (my NWM income funded all my “passion” businesses), could you apprentice or work for/with a business owner to learn? What other baby steps could you do that would get you in the stream of what you love? Everything little thing you do matters, even if it seems small – but it all adds up over 2-3 years. And 53 is young! You have so much life experience…and the 2nd half of your life put it all into practice. What do you think? Carmen
My AHA moment was that NWM is a distribution method like a retail store. And I am blessed to be a way for others to get a product or service.
Hi Melissa! Great to have you here. That’s a great AHA and perspective to view the NWM industry from. Can’t wait to hear your action steps. See you in the next vid! Natasha – Soul Craft Team :)
As obvious as it might sound, I’m the one who designs my dream life (around my business), what makes me happy in the first place by pursuing my passions, activities I love rather than what is traditionally expected from me in NWM. So much needed revelation or AHA moment.
Hi Aiste! This is SUCH an important realization — and although it sounds obvious, it’s not — so I’m so glad this resonated with you. So glad you’re here. Looking forward to reading your AHA’s and Action steps after Vid 2! Warmly, Carmen
I loved the first video, looking forward to the next one. My #1 AHA is realising that I can put my passion (music and singing) in my business to design my process. So, my #1 action step from video 1 will be : Put my passion up front, I already have a couple of ideas how I’m going to do it ! Thank you Carmen !
Hi Marie-Claude! I’m so happy that you enjoyed this video :) I absolutely love your AHA and action step – integrating your passions to your business is a key part of Soul Crafting your biz. I can’t wait to hear about these ideas. See you in the next vid! Natasha – Soul Craft Team
Hi Carmen, I have loved your first Video! My aha moment was the realisation that my personal passions and authenticity become my brand …and people will love you for it!
Please help me with receiving the video 2 because it hasn’t happened yet and it has been 3 days
Thank you!
Hi Sarah! I’m so glad you loved the first Vid — and what GREAT aha’s! Exactly — and this will give you so much more enjoyment and meaning in what you do — and for others that come in contact with you! Yes – Vid 2 should definitely arrived. Can you please check your spam/junk in case it went there (gmail in particular is very finicky these days) but I’ll also reach out personally to make sure you receive. Thank you so much for letting us know! Warmly, Carmen xo
Right now I don’t have an aha moment. I just know that its not about my company but its about helping people to live a healthier live.
Hi Myra! That is actually a huge shift in perception — putting your focus on people living a healthier life and how this would benefit them is a great way to orient your business! Let us know what changes with this shift… See you in the next vid! Natasha – Soul Craft Team
My NWM business should and can be a reflection of what matters to me and I need to design my life and business with intention.
I will begin doing one thing every day that will support my life and my business: Exercise and reach out to others.
Hi Kay! Powerful insights: your biz absolutely can be a reflection of what really matters to you and lights you up… So great to read those action steps centered around things that support you AND your biz. See you in the next vid! Natasha – Soul Craft Team :)
Video 1, AHA#1: NWM is a DISTRIBUTION model that helps people develop or keep Health and Happiness with Usana.
#1 Action: NWM develops our Friends and Finances – $500/ month is the rent for a Beach Side Property. It pays for essential items. Who wouldn’t want that?
Hi Helene, so great to see you here :) Great AHA and action step! I love your reframe on how to look at the income generated through NWM – See you in the next video! Natasha – Soul Craft Team
Such a simple message broken down in a way that works for me. Aha was realising I a. Stuck because I don’t fully believe in the industry yet. Hearing about the five ways to get a product to a consumer, really broke it down for me. I am in a valid industry!!!
This is SUCH a huge breakthrough Leesa. I’m so glad the 5 Ways to get a product to consumer helped – shifted everything for me too. See you on the next video! Carmen :)
Hi Carmen
Sorry but no aha moment. Artistic and creative resonates with me as a visual artist. I always feel divorced from the marketing aspect of what I offer with passion, love, and joy, also with meaningful content, I mention it because it matters. Now, about teaching, considering the ongoing virus and regulations, getting a bunch of people together in one place sounds like a fairytale. Maybe I should join the online tribe. By the way, being bilingual with English as my 2nd language always get me wondering which way to go. I am in for the next video, thank you so much for what you do.
Hi Enrique! I’m so glad you’re here! Yes, I think one thing COVID has emphasized is the necessity of having at least a portion of our business online — and from my experience over the past 10 years pre-covid, having part of NWM business online allows you to reach and help so many more people, and have more freedom of where you live, who your customers and associates are (especially with your being billigual!) and helps with having the ability to pivot when things like COVID come along. Building our NWM business both online and in person (soon hopefully!) is just so important — you’re in the right place. I love that passion, love, joy and meaningful content is important to you — the art of soulful living and business building for sure. Again, so glad you’re here and looking forward to connecting after Vid 2! Warmly, Carmen
Heyyy, thank you so much!! can’t wait for video 2- when will it be out?
my aha would have been bringing more passion to the business- doing more of what i love instead of just focussing on business all the time. THANK YOU- I’m going to bring more excitement to my business this week by sharing my love for astrology and human design- share more of my creative writing/ photography and DANCE AND SING WAY MORE! thank you carmen
Hi Josie! I’m so glad you liked the video and are eager for the next! Vid 2 will be delivered right into your inbox in 1-2 days (depending on how quickly you watched the 1st video). We designed it that way so that participants would have a chance to implement their action steps between the videos — but I totally get wanting to get onto the next one right away too! I just love hearing how clear you are about your passions and interests and determination to bring them more into your business and life — music to my ears! So glad you’re here Josie! See you on the next vid! Carmen xo
I feel like rejoining my company I’ve been with for the last twenty years. Take time to answers in the PDF work sheet. Create a Facebook Group to attract women over 50.
Hi Diane! What a great feeling to re-experience!! And love your Action Steps – specific and actionable immediately. So glad you’re here! See you on the next Video :). Carmen xo
I am loving this! Thank you. I really do need to work on leaving my past network marketing mindset in the past and move forward with more belief! I also love the reminder/nudge to weave my passions into my business. For some reason sometimes I feel like I should keep my life and my business separate but why?! I’m also gonna do more of what I love NOW and stop using the excuse “I’ll do it when I have more time or money” thanks again :)
Hi Ashleigh, You are so welcome! I am so glad happy that you the video highlighted importance of combining your business and life…and centering your business around what you love. AND…not waiting til you have more time or money to do what you love. HUGE breakthroughs Ashleigh and I’m so glad you’re here! Looking forward to your AHA’s and Action Steps on Vid 2! Carmen :)
I’m just finishing a course the is similar to this, this information really helps it become more clear. I thank you and can’t Waite to see next vedio.
You are SO welcome, Randy! I’m glad that you’re finding it helpful and that it brings clarity – super important. See you in the next video!
Carmen :)
Thank you Carmen for re-igniting my curiosity in how to grow my business.
I have realized that my passion is gardening, I have spent nearly a week in my yard/garden without effort/excuses. Usually on vacation I would be travelling, this is the first time I have spent a full week at home and enjoyed it. I have also grown a gardening page I run to over 1400 people within a few months (I have no experience in gardening at all but have a passion for knowing more); people love to share ideas, experience and plants.
Thank you.
Hi Jayne! What a great realization to have — AND that you’re already getting confirmation that people love this too! 1400 people within just a few months is great feedback. I’m so happy the videos are helping re-ignite your desire to grow your business and how to do it around what you love. See you on the next video – looking forward to hearing your aha’s and actions steps as we go through them! Carmen xo
I love how you gave “The Business of the 21st Century” to your prospects, what a great idea! My action plan is to purchase the book and read it. I’m still very new to Usana and still have a lot to learn and your video has been really helpful with clarifying my thoughts about myself and what others compliment me on. Thank you for this!
Hi! Carmen I love your video a lot. It helped me build my confidence back while and after watching the video.
I realized a lot, specially the part were knowing that I may have the informations on my finger tips but somehow my result wasn’t what I wanted to achieve.
I’m very excited to work on my true passion in life and what I really want to do and incorporate it to my business. Intention – Focus – Soul.
Hi Rueno! I’m so glad you’re here and that the video helped with building back your confidence — and especially that you want to integrate your passions into your business – WHOOHOO! Intention-Focus-Soul – Yes! See you on the next vid, Warmly Carmen :)
Hi Theresa! I’m so glad the video was so helpful…and that you’re right into action with buying the book…AND really sinking into what people compliment you on so you can use your gifts in building your business. Really great take-aways! Looking forward to seeing you on the next video! Carmen xo
Thanks Carmen for the peace that you project.
It moved me to leave a comment. I’m not the kind of person that leaves comments.
Well, today I have decided to start training for one of my hidden dreams… run a marathon. I’m not a regular runner, but I think that with a good training (an application my son found for me) I can try to run it in december which is the month that takes place in my city.
Hopefully it doesn’t cancel.
I have a lot of work to doy in myself, but I think the decision I took today is the beginning of many good things to come.
Hi Paty, I’m so touched that the content moved you to leave comment – that’s so wonderful for me to hear – thank you! And I’m so happy that you’ve decided to start training for one of your dreams — running a marathon – that’s amazing! And you are so right — everything starts when you make a decision and take action towards a dream — it will impact all other aspects of your life positively as well. Keep me posted as I would love to hear — witnessing people going after their dreams is one of my favorite things. See you on the next video – so glad you’re here Paty – and commenting! Lots of love, Carmen
Hi Carmen!
You totally inspire me to work on myself, my beliefs and my business.
You have a new fan over hear… I can’t wait to hear more from you and your tips.
Thank you!
Love from 🇨🇦
Liliana! I’m so glad the content resonated with you — especially around beliefs, self and your biz. So glad you’re here and looking forward to connecting on the next video and hearing what you found the most helpful for you. I’m a fellow Canadian too! ❤️🇨🇦 Lots of love, Carmen
You are Dialed in. Excellent Training that focuses on where i know i want to be. I will get there. I have been realizing i have gone away from what i really Love and that is Connecting with people and Connecting them To People and Resources. My action steps have been since all this coronavirus stuff hit and i have had more time actually going through all the steps of trainings. HAve been consistantly creating some habits going some core trainings i am connected through and Yours. It starts to become apart of ya. Thank You for all that You do and How you do it a great model of designing and processes.Time for me to get my act together
Hi Dan, you are very welcome, I’m glad it resonated with you! What beautiful insights and “rememberings” – about moving towards the things you love. Great action steps on creating habits that shift things for you. Can’t wait to hear more about your journey – see you in the next video. Carmen :)
Thank you Carmen for putting the video together. My #1 AHA moment was putting the focus with my passion of helping families with better health and building income from home. I truly love talking to people, teaching them how simple changes can bring joy. My #1 action step I need to do is setting my schedule to accommodate my other love of working out. I have a tenancy of forgetting me. I retired in December of last year. My whole life has been focused on my family and their needs. My father lived with my family for 6 years, after my mom died. During that time, we had my daughter and son graduate from high school. Later college graduations, oh, and my daughter was married. My oldest son was married 5 months after his sister was married. He had an out-of-state wedding. The following year my youngest son was married, home on leave, Air Force. It was supposed to be the following year, five days to plan a wedding. It went off as though we had been planning it for months. My husband worked at a job, in home improvement as a design specialist. His appointments were early morning till late evening. I also worked from home in a high demanding atmosphere, up at 5:30, to bed by 10:30 if lucky. So, I needed this video to change my mindset of I AM important. I got too relaxed in my schedule after my retirement. My get-up-and-go went to AWE, do it later attitude…… SO, now, I have an ACTION STEP, get my schedule to include ME,
See you in the NEXT Video Carmen! Thank you again!
Hi Joyce! Oh my goodness — you have hit on something SO important – self care is NOT selfish and just so important to put the oxygen mask on first. I am so happy this was one of your Aha’s and Action steps! And you have a beautiful purpose with for your NWM business – huge why :). Yes, keep focusing on YOU and ironically that will help everyone else more — and you’ll be a great way shower for others! So glad you are here Joyce – and yes – see you on the next Vid! Carmen xo
Hi Carmen,
I have downloaded the PDF and viewed the video and the worksheet. I am now teleworking from home from my normal job. The reason I am interested in network marketing is that I have been using a superior nutritional supplement for 12 years and I am an Associate Independent Distributor for the company. I am also close to retirement for the second time (first time was 24 years of active duty military), and this time it’s because I am 61 and should probably be looking at retiring again. But I can’t just retire and do nothing. So why not use my story to make an income?
Hi Lawrence! Love that you’re using the PDF as you’re going through the video – makes it so much easier to integrate the information and take action. And absolutely – that are such a GREAT reasons to do NWM — you love the products and have had results, setting up a residual and additional income stream AND doing something meaningful that helps others – just awesome. So glad you’re here Lawrence and see you on the next video! Carmen :)
Thanks so much Carmen. I’m excited to watch the next video. Biggest takeaway was finding my passion. Leading with passion and not opportunity. Thank you :)
You are SO welcome, Ashley! Great takeaway, finding your passion is key – it will shift your perspective in a beautiful way. See you in the next video – Carmen :)
Hi Carmen,
Firstly, thank you for this video!! I hesitated at first to access it and am so thankful that I clicked on the link – Your message came and touched something within me. :)
My Ah Ha moment was truly realising that it is the fear/unknown holding me back – More specifically of moving forward in my business with an approach that I’ve been encouraged to use that goes against what I believe in and against what I think is the appropriate way to approach things and my prospective participants/associates. I realised that I can break the mold and do things my way – All I need to do is continue to be me, put into practice what I am learning from my own research (which includes what I’ve learned here so far!) and not compromising who I am. THANK YOU for that!
One thing I am going to do this week is to start being more active in my business and the first step will be to offer more value in what I am offering by staring to share better information/posts – I love reading/writing so why not create better posts sharing what I have and am learning about life and the business I am in. Start sharing more of what I would be looking for if I was searching for a new opportunity or someone to follow!
Cindy
Awwh Cindy, what a beautiful message! You are so welcome and I’m super glad you clicked on the link, too :)
That is a very powerful Aha and one of the values of Soul Craft – doing things soulfully, in a way that feels good to YOU.
That is a great action step, to do more of what you love (reading/writing) and infusing it in your business. I would love to hear how it goes! See you in the next vid – Carmen :)
Hi Carmen, Absolutely loved the video, just so good to go over what I am passionate about all over again and also go present to what I love about being in Network marketing. I absolutely love having flexible schedule and that gives me freedom to travel and the other is the residual income that comes with this business.
One of the steps I’m going to take is schedule a webinar for next week to share about health, immunity and how during this time easy steps can be taken to improve.
Hi Deep! Isn’t it so great to go over our foundations, passions and love for NWM again? It is SUCH a great refresher, it strengthens the purpose behind it all. I LOVE your step on scheduling a webinar for next week — powerful action step and incredibly useful during these times. I’d love to hear about it once it’s up!
Carmen :)
I love this! Thankyou! I want to make more time to do live demos with my customers and really empower women to feel good about themselves- naturally!
You are so calming and instantly make me feel less stressed about the whole thing!
Thankyou
Angie xx
You are so welcome Angie! I love your clarity on what you enjoy doing and HOW you’re going to do it – awesome aha and action step. Thank you for your sweet comment too! See you on the video! Lots of love, Carmen
Carmen you are such a beautiful soul!! Thank you for providing such value in these videos. My biggest ah-ha is that one of the things I love most in the world is the thing I am doing the least of in my life! That is music!! BTW I used to love dancing so much and it made me feel so alive…time for more dance parties and I must jump online and join in on your classes xo
Hiya Alicia! Thank you – what a beautiful message to receive – and you are so welcome! I am so glad they are resonating. And YES! You absolutely must do more music…and DANCE! Yes – come anytime to my online dance classes – they are perfect for Australians right now as we’re here – Thurs + Sun at 9am and Tues at 5pm – all AEST times :). http://www.SoulFitDance.com Would love to have you xoxox
There are so many AHA´S!!! But the main one is that I was always at a struggle with my time, since I became a mom to two wonderful girls, I always thought I had to prioritize my network business and then see if I had time for my passions!!! So thank you for showing me the way!! Im so grateful for this program! Than you Carmen!!
Hi Maria! I am so happy that it helped you realize that making more time for your passions will make ALL the difference. And you’ll be such a great way shower to your daughters — an entrepreneur who is doing what she loves, building a business and life with balance. You are so welcome and I’m so glad you are here. See you on the next video – it gets even better from here on out! Carmen :)
I didn’t have an aha moment I had an OMG moment!! You’ve opened my eyes today to what is clearly in front of me, thank you so much. I’m a dancer too and I’ve just resonated with you so much, my action step is to start getting my classes together and begin to teach dance when all of this madness is over. Wow I’d really love to chat to you about your story, thanks again so much
Hi Kiz! Love that you had an OMG moment! And that you’re a fellow dancer too! And YES — start teaching – that is such a great idea! If this continues for a while, you can even teach classes online (I moved mine online when this all started – and it’s actually been one of the best things I could have done). Looking so forward to hearing about your journey as we go along! See you in the next video! Carmen xo
Thank you! xox
You are so welcome Meyranie! I love your name! Carmen :)
I think the biggest thing I took from this video is just that I can go about my business in a way that is different from others just by be being me and letting what inspires and drives me help drive others. My goal for this week is to really look over that worksheet and figure out a better way to reach out to people and maybe take my girls on a hike somewhere we haven’t been.
Hi Angie! That’s a wonderful aha – and such a better (more inspiring and enjoyable) way to build your business. I love your action step of using the worksheet to help you with your inviting this week — AND taking your girls on a hike. Really great clarity and specificity. See you on the next video – so glad you’re here! Carmen :)
I accidentally used my other email when I submitted the previous comment, how do I get to the next video?
Hi Angie! It’s ok – the next video will be delivered into your inbox to the email you opt-ed in to the Video Series with – the next 3 are delivered right to you over the next few days to allow you time to implement your action steps. Hope that helps? Warmly, Carmen
This has come, I feel, at such a great time for me. I’m still new to my business and really feel like during this time I’ve started to struggle. Watching your first video was really eye opening and motivating for me. Also, helped that I had a coaching call and talked with my up-line in business this week as well to help get me back on track and motivated. I loved honestly everything you went over and took LOTS of notes but, I would have to say the thing that stuck out for me the most was when you were talking about “Crafting your Business around your Passions” and one of your quotes really stuck, “Our purpose is ALWAYS connected to what we love!” This has made me realize I need to start posting MY STORY to get a better connection with the people I’m trying to get. Thank you for such a motivational and uplifting first video, it honestly hooked me to want to finish the rest and I’ve been through a lot of these things that are just boring and get me no where.
Hi Hailey! I’m so glad you’ve come across my videos at the START of your NWM career. I love that your really connected with our purpose being connected to what we love — and that it’s encouraging you to post your story for better connection with others. You are so welcome — I’m so glad you’re here and are excited to go through the rest – and that it FEELS different. That’s wonderful b/c it will help you DO NWM differently. See you on Vid 2! Warmly, Carmen
I feel like your ad and generous free link has come at exactly the right time for me. I love my network marketing business, I love the product and the community but I have hit a hump where I feel that I should have achieved better results and and I feel like I’m sabotaging myself. I also know this is a long term commitment so my belief is firm and I’m determined to make it work – my aha moment. I’m thinking too much and not doing all the things I love. More wooden spoon carving, more hiking, and just this week I decided I want to let loose and dance more. Voilà! Thank you! Looking forward to video #2.
Hi Joanna! I’m so glad my ad and training reached you! I can really feel your commitment to your NWM company, product and the journey of building your business and self — and to find new ways to do NWM to break through ruts and self-sabotage (great self-awareness!!) — while doing more of the things you love doing. Hiking, wooden spoon carving (ooo…that sounds cool) and letting loose with more DANCE (one of my favorite things too) – all really awesome action steps. I’m so glad you’re here! And yes — see you on Video 2!
Oh my goodness!! Thank the heavens.
I feel like I have been waiting to meet you all my Networking days.
I feel I can be me and that’s ok! I’m calm & creatively soulful in my experience as an authentic human being and signing that with my love of travel, culture &
my obsession with the human condition is like angels rocking out to Lenny Kravitz!!
Such a pleasure to meet you Carmen
Hi Bernice! What a wonderful comment to read — it makes me so happy that the videos are resonating so much AND that you know you can be YOU! I love your clarity on your passions…and that it’s like “angels rocking out to Lenny Kravitz!!” Such a great visual :). I’m so glad you’re here Bernice and I look forward hearing more as we go through the videos — keep your aha’s and action steps coming – they’re awesome! Lots of love, Carmen
Hello Carmen!
I was so excited to find your program on Facebook. My AHA moment was realizing I can promote my business by incorporating it into things I’m passionate about and love….which is home and family. I also realized that sharing my passion in more like minded areas will probably be more successful than sharing with reckless abandon to everyone. I see this as working smarter instead of harder!
Thank you ! I look forward to the rest of the videos
Hi Kim! I’m so glad you found me through FB too! LOVE that you have so much clarity with your passions – home and family – beautiful. Also love your realization of of focusing on like-minded people rather than sharing with “reckless abandon” – that made me laugh – well said! So glad you’re here and I’ll see you on the next video! Warmly, Carmen
My aha moment is something I have heard before, and I know if Karen can do it, so can I, I just havent done it yet! My problem is to turn customers into partners, which I hope to learn by your trainings. Thanks a lot for putting this out :-)
Hi Hanne – thanks for adding your AHA! Yes – partners are so important so we can take advantage of the “leverage” part of NWM – and much more fun to be working with a team. GREAT intention setting. And you are so welcome! Warmly, Carmen
great informat;ion
I’m so glad it resonated Dominique! Warmly, Carmen
If Karen Can do it I Can top. But my struggle is become “the expert” people will listen to, and the bad reputation of the Nwm business.
And ladt Im not a sales person.
Hi Hanne! Love this, “if Karen can do it, so can I!” :). YES! And the great thing is, you don’t have to be an “expert”, you want to be a real person who listens and cares and then provides possible solutions. I definitely wasn’t an expert for many years – I was a 27 year old english lit major with no business (or life :) experience when I started. You also don’t want to be a “sales person” (nobody wants to be sold to). So it’s GOOD that you aren’t a sales person and you definitely don’t need to be an expert when you start out — but of course you want to be willing to learn as you go. Reputation of NWM – there are so many people that think NWM is a great thing – Warren Buffet (has several NWM companies in his portfolio), Tony Robbins, Stephen Covey, Robert Kioyosaki…a I would suggest getting “The Perfect Business” by Robert Kiyosaki – as mentioned in the video – that completely changed my viewpoint about NWM. Does that help? Carmen :)
Thanks it was very helpful. LOL sorry I put my aha moment twice because I didn’t know if it worked in the first place…
Hanne! That’s ok – lol :) GREAT Aha :)
Anything is possible, I like to dance also.
Hi Josephina! Lovely to hear from a fellow lover of dance. Yes – especially back with a clear plan, determination and passion. And dance is a great passion to center your business around! Warmly, Carmen
Looking forward to the training thank you so much👍
You are so welcome Ina! Looking forward to hearing your aha’s action steps! Warmly, Carmen
Cool first video Carmen. Can’t get into second one .. would like to know more about what you offer back end
Hi Johnny! I’m so glad you liked Vid #1! Each video is time released to encourage participants to take action between the vids — but love that you’re keen to get Vid 2!
The videos will roll out sequentially directly into your inbox — you’ll receive the links over the coming days. In the meantime though, iff you have any questions about the program and what I offer, please do feel free to email us directly at in**@ca************.com. Warmly, Carmen
Carmen this was a great video. I have done many of your programs and seen some of this information before but what I saw this time was something I struggled with and couldn’t put into words. I have known for a while that I am the issue. I think that its bc I have tried to be something that I am not and tried to fit into everyone else’s personality profile. It did not feel authentic to me so I would start and stop a lot amongst all of the” life issues” I dealt with. When you said to think about 2 unique characteristics that you bring to the business I wrote perseverance/ diligence and compassion/empathy. The 2 things people have complimented me on are my solid belief in pursing what I believe God has told me (pursing my faith) and passion-the passion to help others. As much as I can see these unique characteristics now, I am still confused on how these things can draw people to me? How I use these qualities to grow my business like Karen did?
Hi Judi! That is such a huge realization to have — the importance of knowing and then really stepping into our authentic selves — even it goes against the grain of what is expected or what others want/wish for us. And your 2 unique characteristics are beautiful. To make it easy to start, I would focus your “perseverance/diligence” on your business AND health and your “compassion/empathy” for your customers/team and self. Those areas will benefit so much from your gifts/talents – and will be balanced between business + health, others and self. When you’re in action in those areas, that will also naturally draw people to you, without even thinking about it. For example, my “talent” of systems and organization, I put into all my businesses and my talent for making people feel good about themselves and that they can do this too, I put into my customers, clients and team. When I focus my talents on getting into action and helping my business and clients grow, it naturally draws people to me. Does that help? Looking forward to your aha’s and action steps from the next Videos too Judi! Lots of love, Carmen
Hello Carmen, Thank you for this opportunity to learn to see NWM business in a beautiful way, It is very nice to listen and watch it,
I have only one of five pillars not good and that is number 5.
My action step will be working out that worksheet.
Jolanda, you are SO welcome! It is actually a GREAT thing that you’re able to identify that you have one of five pillars so that you know what to work on and where to focus your efforts, great job! Love your action step, please let me know how it goes with the worksheet and if you have any questions to keep you moving forward :)
Lots of love, Carmen
Hi Carmen, thanks a lot for the interesting and stimulant video.
I reckon that my #1 a-ha has been focusing on my qualities: it has really helped me realizing which they are and getting more confidence to start something I am passionate about :)
You are so welcome Daphne! Those are wonderful realizations — focusing on your gifts and qualities, recognizing what they are….and having new found confidence to start something you’re passionate about! So, so important and just loved reading this. Carmen :))
You have a wonderful calmness about you. Finding my niche and being true to me and not buying into other peoples reasons .. can’t wait to hear more from you … you just make sense!!
Hi Debbie! Those are GREAT aha’s – finding your niche, being true to yourself and not buying into other people’s reasons – really powerful and important ones. I’m so glad my style/style of the videos resonates with you — that was lovely to hear! Looking forward to seeing you on the next video – keep your great insights coming! Carmen :)
Hi Carmen, I spend time every day learning, because I love it, and I certainly learnt from you today. You are a fabulous presenter and your message was short and sweet-perfect! I love my products, my company and helping people become healthier and happier, and I have certainly grown in so many ways since starting NWM. It os so true that we need to focus on our strengths and use them to our advantage rather than copy others. I am already working hard on being the product of my product and connecting my product with my passions which has happened quite naturally so far. You have given me a huge boost though reminding me that that is the way to continue with renewed energy and focus. I also love how you explained NWM as just one of the ways to sell and importantly it is a way to develop relationships and really serve our customers, which I love.
Thanks so much! 🌱
Hi Lotte! I’m so glad to hear that you already have been working on connecting your product with your passions and that this was just an extra confirmation that you are on the right track! I can tell from your passion and enthusiasm you’re really committed to learning — so I’m so glad you are here! Looking forward to seeing you on the next video – love your shares and detailed realizations – so helpful for everyone else too to read. Thank you for your sweet feedback too :)) Lots of love and see you in the next vid! Carmen
What a beautiful and amazing woman you are and what a joy to listen to. I’ve been in this industry for eight years and it’s really taking me on a journey to empower women but you have just made me ask myself a lot more in-depth question to find my niche and to also bring back my photography passion into that
so thank you and I cannot wait to hear the other three videos and I will be sharing it with everybody that I know in the industry 💛🌻
To let go of judgment and to set more time for jewelry design, this is a craft that I really enjoy and if i am not careful i can list in for hours
Hi Sam! Really important Aha and action step – nice work identifying both of those. And such a beautiful passion to center more of your biz (and life) around. See you on the next video! Carmen :)
My #1 AHA from Video 1:
NWM is a DISTRIBUTION{ model that helps people develop or keep Health and Happiness.
My #1 Action Step from Video 1:
NWM develops our friends and finances: from SCYWT100K, $500 is very little rent on a Beach Side Property. Very good value paying for essential items from NWM company each month. I am going to promote to potential Associates.
So happy to see you here Helene! GREAT Aha’s and Action Steps! Really good clarity. See you on the next video! Carmen xo
Awwhh — what a sweet message to receive Natascha! Thank you so much :) And I’m so happy that the video series is helping you ask deeper questions AND bringing your passion for photography to the forefront. I’d love for you to share with whoever you think the vids will help — and we’ll get more people centering their NWM business around what they love. See you on the next vid – and thank you for your beautiful feedback. Carmen xo
Hi Carmen, I love the worksheet, that is very helpful. I think asking myself these questions will help me to move forward. I have struggled in so many areas. I absolutely love what I do and the company I am with but feel un-heard when I speak about it. I don’t get the movement in my business I am looking for. I am always open to grow and learn new ways. These questions will help me to understand myself a little more to move in that forward direction.
Thank you, Carmen! Your video is mind opening. I always love to write and be a life coach. But I stopped and do my NWM business full time. Now I realize why I can’t get
more ideal prospects. Your video is so enlightening! I am now eager and happy to go back to my manuscript that I’ve put away since I join the business. It’s like being home again. Thank you and I’m excited for video 2. God bless!
Hi Sholly! This makes me so happy to hear! Yes, continue your passions and love of writing and life coaching — that is where your perfect prospects will be. Keep me posted — and see you on the next video. “It’s like being home again” — love that! Lots of love, Carmen
Thank you for this format of learning. I absolutely love your delivery. I found myself within your description as to why NWM was not always working for me even with my belief in its delivery . The light bulb did hit when you spoke about aligning what I enjoy with my business and approaching my path from that angle. I love many things: travel , fitness , down time with friends and the essence of family. Now to perhaps do more soul searching as to how to approach NWM from my pillars of self and put it all together.
Hi Paula! I’m so glad this resonated as it will give you such a different way to build that will FEEL so much more aligned with you. And you’ve already have clarity on what you love – nice! Would love to hear more about how you put everything together after settling into this concept – see you on the next Video — and I am so glad you are here! Carmen :)
Hi Sholly! I’m so glad the worksheet is helpful — I need to add a big arrow that says, “Download this FIRST!” so people have it ready for when they go through the vids — as it really helps structure adn frame everything better for retention and application. LOVE that you’re open to learning new ways — the vids will all help with a different way to do network marketing so you’ll feel heard. So glad you are here Sholly and looking forward to your Aha’s and Action Steps as we go through the vids and adding any extra value I can. Carmen :)
Dear Carmen, I can not believe your generosity! I have been down for a while, I lost my passion and interest in our business due breast cancer! I always thought I was doing well and I was very healthy and one day my world collapsed.
Since then I do not know what to say or how to do the business anymore, specially because nowadays everything is over the internet.
You know well that I have always admire you and I have been enjoying your dancing classes.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I just realised that i am me so i need to stay that way x
Yes! Beautiful realization Kate :). Warmly, Carmen
Hi Elia! You are so welcome! I’m so sorry to hear about your breast cancer – I can only imagine how difficult that must have been to hear and then navigate. You’re a fighter though — I see that so in you in dance class! And I’m so happy as these videos series will really help this next chapter — and how to be doing network marketing in way that is relevant to today’s world but still is aligned with YOU. Looking so forward to being on this journey with you. Lots of love, Carmen
My Aha moment! Was definitely the 5 ways of getting product to the consumer. It helps take my “mental block” away about network marketing.
I also feel I need to focus more on my passion and what ppl see the most in me.
Megan, I’m so glad that was helpful – me too – it changed everything for me in how I viewed NWM and then of course explaining NWM to others. GREAT insight to focus more on your passions and your gifts/what people appreciate and love about you. Warmly, Carmen
Hi Carmen, loved this first video….I call myself the accidental manager lol….as it is because of my belief and passion for the products that I used that have led me into NWMing …. I used the products, loved the products and am I product of the products….because of the changes in me, friends & strangers asked me how to get involved….. boom….I have a little NWM business/hobby purely by chance. My passion is helping others feel as fit n healthy as I now do (age 58) …. I look forward to learning how to build my little hobby using these values you share. Thank you
My Aha Moment was realising that by following my passion I’m actually doing ok! I’m looking forward to watching and learning more from your video series.
Hi Kay! Thank you so much for sharing your love for NWMing and your AHA. It is SO key that helping others feel like you do is actually your passion :-) I absolutely love your Aha moment, that’s what it’s all about. We look forward to your Aha’s for video #2. The Soul Craft Team.
My aha was the 5 ways to get products to consumers. I loved the question prompts for industry & you! Now I’m going to pursue my passions.
Thank you for this awesome video. My 2 passions are creating business and real estate investing. And I believe that creating wealth in NWM is not shoving something to people’s throat but more so adding value that helps people with their pain points . It’s true that majority are doing the same in NWM, and I love your concept of doing it DIFFERENTLY. How can I bring this passion of investing to NWM? Looking forward for the next video. Thanks and keep adding value to people.
Hi Alpla! Love that you have so much clarity on your two passions – that’s the first step. So glad you’re here and you are so welcome! Warmly, Carmen
Nicole, thank you for sharing your Aha — yes! For me too – it changed everything for how I viewed the NWM industry. And I’m SO happy that you loved the question prompts! Let me know how you do in pursuing your passions, I’d love to hear about it :-)
Warmly, Carmen
Thanks Carmen for this video. I lose a lot of time with people who does’t want very well the product.
I want more passion of my team and me, than I will folow your video to take some advice.
Sory if my english, it’s not perfect, I’m french from Quebec.
For today,
I’m thinking of my passion, I love to see the result of health, I’m massage therapist and I’m a associate of Usana.
I work my self to find the better way for more succes. I have difficulty to be constant and focus.
The passion of learning of health but I need more dept to distinguish me.
Hello Carmen, I really enjoy running, walking and cycling and I am a Young Living (nwm-industry) distributor. I am also a life (career) coach and spend a lot of time on self-care. I enjoy life!
Hi Greta! What great clarity on what you love doing and so many things you can integrate into your NWM business! I’m so glad you’re here! Carmen xo
Thank you, Carmen for this series! This feels so much better than traditional NWM selling training. My biggest “a-ha” moment was really to align my business with my passions. The products I sell for a health and wellness company are truly quality products and if it wasn’t for those supplements, I wouldn’t be able to do the things that I love. I already have ideas about where I can start sharing about my business in groups I am a member of to maximize my results. I cannot wait for video #2!
I loved reading your comment Kristin — such a great AHA and that you feel clear about how you can start sharing in your business groups — that’s wonderful! I can feel your passion for your products and how they’ve changed your life. Looking forward to seeing you in Vid #2 — I’ll watch for you there! Carmen :)
How do I get to hear the other videos?

Hi Cynthia! Your english is great! (and much better than my French :) I absolutely love that you are figuring out your passions – this will help your NWM business build so much more authentically when you center your business around what you love.
