When Reliv found me I was falling apart. I cried every day. My marriage was failing not because we didn’t love each other; it was because I was miserable to live with. I had had two children diagnosed with disabilities the very same year and it was taking an emotional toll on me. I got started on the Reliv products and found, very quickly, that I had sustained energy throughout my day and a lift in my mood. I just felt better! And I could handle the stresses that had been placed on my family. I went on to get full relief from those emotional symptoms, as well as chronic constipation. I’ve used Reliv as a prenatal, I’ve recently lost 31 pounds on the products and my marriage has never been better.
But what changed my life is when I put my son who has a lifelong developmental disability on Reliv products. In 5 days, this little boy who had never told me his name before, told me his name, his age, his mom and dad’s names, his address, his phone number, including area code and zip code – and I cried. His processing delay went away and that was why he was able to recall the information we had taught him in over 100 hours of therapy per month for two years. The very next week his language doubled, his eye contact got better, his social skills improved, his sensory problems decreased in frequency and intensity (and they had always been on complete overload) and in five weeks, my son was just like any normal boy his age.
Now, with that said, not every day is a perfect day at our home – our son is always going to have this disability. But, we have Reliv and as long as he takes his shakes consistently, he can appear 90 percent improved 90 percent of the time.
Our reality is that he is better focused, has a sense of humor, can handle the world around him, his bowel issues have completely resolved and he speaks to me just like any of my other children. Reliv is helping our son to have a quality of life he was never expected to have and I cannot even begin to tell you the gratitude I have in my heart for the changes that have come into our home.
I started sharing the hope of Reliv with others around my kids and was earning anywhere from $200-400 a month – that was paying for my family’s products initially. So, not only did Reliv give me a solution, they gave me a way to pay for it. I have put a consistent effort into this business and it has gradually grown over the years. To date, our best income month has gone over $8,400.
When I got on the products it wasn’t that I had any health issues at all – I just wanted to maintain my health. Well, after being on the products for only a short period of time, I actually experienced several things. I started sleeping all night, my energy zoomed, I was able to walk the golf course and carry my clubs again and that hadn’t happened in over 15 years. I went to get the hearing aids I was recommended to get and when they tested me again they said my hearing actually improved to the point that I did not have to get hearing aids. That was seven years ago and to this day, I still don’t wear hearing aids.
Carol had developed Candida yeast, leaky gut syndrome. She became allergic to about everything she was eating. She was losing weight, started looking anorexic, got depressed and became a recluse. She was looking for something nutritionally to help herself and tried many things, and through that process came across Reliv. She got started on the products and by the fifth month, we pretty much had the old Carol back.
We really realized we had the opportunity with Reliv to help people in ways we never could before, in ways that really mattered – with their lifestyle and with their health. I think the real impact was when the first person came up with tears of joy in their eyes thanking us for changing their life. We knew that we had found a home. By the end of the first year, we had made $50,000. We made $100,000 our second year. By our fifth year in the business we made $251,000. I was amazed at that! We have been on numerous all-expenses-paid trips with Reliv to places like Munich, Germany, Bermuda, Cancun, three Caribbean cruises. We love doing Reliv and I don’t see any reason why we’d ever stop.
Shawn joined Reliv in 1990, after attending his first Tuesday night opportunity meeting. “At the time, I was nine years out of college and working as an accountant. I was $20,000 in debt and earning half of what I believed I was worth,” Shawn recalls. “It was at that meeting that I found the opportunity I was looking for but didn’t know existed — a business I could do from home part-time, with no overhead costs or financial risk. I thought, ‘I’ve got to do this.’
“In my first 90 days, I earned $7,000 part time and I decided to make Reliv my full-time career,” Shawn continues. My income reached $20,000 a month and, for the past 13 consecutive years, I’ve continued to earn well into six figures.
“Because of Reliv, I now live what I call the most blessed and unexplainable lifestyle. Because the two factors that control most people’s life decisions — time and money — don’t have that stranglehold on me, and never will again,” Shawn says. “Pretty amazing, considering this company is really just getting started.”
At 22 years old, I had already lost control of my time. I was an office manager and left home very early in the morning to get my daughter to daycare before work, and I didn’t get home until after 6 o’clock every night. I became a mom to be a mom. Children are a blessing, and I really resented missing them growing up. I desperately wanted to be there for my daughter.
Within two years with Reliv, I had replaced my income. By my sixth year in the business, I was earning a six-figure income. Today I have financial freedom, I have time freedom and most importantly I have family freedom. I now have two children and I haven’t had to miss any “firsts” in their lives.
Reliv has given me the opportunity to be the mom that I want to be, and has given me the opportunity to show my children how to make a profound difference in the lives of others.
“For 22 years I earned straight commission and did okay financially, but each month I had to start over,” recalls Pat. “With Reliv, what you do today will continue to work for you for the rest of your life – and beyond!”
Pat and Jane are laying the groundwork for their future and that of their children, who’ll inherit their business when they retire. What’s more, they’re earning an annual income of close to $500,000.
The couple points out that Reliv has given them much more than unlimited financial opportunity. “Through Reliv, we’ve traveled the world and made lifelong friends,” Jane says. “Best of all, Reliv has given us time – for vacations, friends and, most importantly, our family.”
We heard about Reliv 10 years ago when I was expecting our third baby. I was tired and worn out. I started on the products. I had a great pregnancy and had incredible energy.
I started our children on the products and our daughter’s blood sugars leveled out with hypoglycemia. One of our sons was excited that his depression had lifted. Our son with Asberger’s Syndrome quit raging. Our daughter with ADD and Dyslexia was able to focus and now she loves to read.
My husband was stubborn and it took him awhile to get started. For 18 years he had suffered with 35 severe migraines a year. His first year on Reliv that number went to 3. All of us quit having the colds, flu’s and respiratory problems.
The business was not something we were looking for. My husband made a good income as an Attorney. I started talking to some people and I made $200 my first month that has grown to over $12,000 in a month. I was able to create a 6 figure income from home around my family.
I worked many, many years in my career as a builder just because I was a dutiful person. But when we heard what Reliv was doing for others, it created a passion and there sure is a difference between working with passion and working because of duty. I remember as we were trying to scratch out a living, how difficult it was just worrying about getting into a ballgame with the kids, paying the bills or even looking at tennis shoes. It was a constant struggle.
People would say, “How are you doing?” and I would always say, “We’re doing great. How are you doing?” But deep down inside I said, “We are not doing great. Things need to change somehow.”
When I was able to start working from the heart and with passion, and seeing friends and family members improving in their mind and body and spirit, there was nothing more awesome than that. By our 11th month in the Reliv business, we were making $11,000 month.
At that point I had a residual income for my family that had never been there. And, if I was called back home, I could be assured that they would be okay. This has grown to a $20,000-a-month income, and I can’t describe the freedom that we have to do what matters most. They say the best thing you can do for the poor is not be one of them. And, that’s because at that point, you have the freedom to help where help is needed.
I started to get sick with Lupus, at 19. I was deadly tired and hurt so bad I couldn’t think straight. Nine years ago I started on Reliv, I got results with my first shake. I was able to get off 3 asthma inhalers, allergies were gone and I stopped having hypoglycemia. At 4 months I was pain free for the first time in 18 years. At one year on Reliv I was symptom free, pain free.
I owned my own cleaning business for 14 years, and I worked hard. I was missing out of watching my children grow up. I started in Reliv at the top profit level, called Master Affiliate. Doubled my income in three months, we now earn as much as $11,000 per month part time.
We have had so much fun in Reliv, I was able to buy the car I wanted. We have been on incredible trips with RELIV… A cruise to the Bahamas, a castle in Banff Canada.
She has to pinch herself when she thinks about all of the amazing changes that have taken place in her life with Reliv.
Life and work hasn’t always been so fun for Bunny, a former teacher and principal who accrued more than $50,000 in debt pursuing alternative treatments for breast and liver cancer before she found Reliv. Bunny went from stage 4 breast Cancer with a life expectancy of 4 months to Cancer Free in 3 months. Flooding her body with Reliv allowed her body to fight back. Today, she’s cancer-free and glad she took the leap of faith last year to walk away from her job to start her Reliv business.
I had 32 cents in my checkbook, but within three weeks, I earned $6,500 with Reliv, she recalls. I didn’t have to say much. People just saw the change in me and wanted to know about this company. I consider Reliv a gift, and I want to share it.
