group of united distributors who became

willing to help each other. In March

Regardless of the challenges Bonnie
has seen and the difficulties she has
faced, she has always found the will to
overcome them. “Bumps in the road
happen in our mental process, but
we have to learn how to understand
and overcome them,” she said. “Each
distributor has his or her own tolerance
level to handle these things. So many
people quit before they reach their
potential, but we can all get past our
obstacles by having a strong purpose in
our lives and determination to succeed.”
Bonnie is committed to continuing
with her organization as they take
4Life® across the globe. Her son has
created an amazing website for their
team that gives all their distributors
around the world access to what they
need for success. Worldwide connection
is important to Bonnie, and she
has found online connections to be
invaluable. “Distributors need a place for
prospecting, training, and mentoring.
They need to stay in touch with a team
and in tune with activities across the
world,” Bonnie explained. “With this
kind of connection, we all can stay
motivated and find the strength
to succeed.”
Even after reaching such an inspiring
level of success, Bonnie remains
ambitious and motivated in her work
today. “I know that with each step,
we are enriching the lives of hundreds

had been donated by members of the community. These food boxes were then shipped to individual food pantries throughout Utah.
