Lets REWIND to the best MONTH OF OUR LIVES... so far lol!
​
​The day we had been dreaming about for 4 years was finally here and WOW it was a whirlwind of emotions. June 30th, 2018 will be a day that we will never forget!!

For those of you that don’t understand how the Herbalife business works to move up in levels, you must meet the required numbers of the qualification for 3 months in a row. Now its so funny because hitting President’s Team was nothing like we thought it was going to be!!!
 
Every single level we had achieved prior to Presidents Team had been the most anxiety state we have ever felt in our lives. Those times are when you have to support your team the most and its so scary because its also the time when the universe decides to throw shit at you you weren’t even expecting LOL!! In “cuts” is when Javi and I have adopted our “signs” and rituals like 11:11, sunflowers, dragonflies, and I even got a freaking tattoo that says “breathe” during one of those stressful months where our anxiety was through the roof LOL. Your faith is truly tested in this business and it’s the scariest shit because your team plays such a huge part in your growth.
 
It's also the most rewarding feeling on the planet. There’s a special feeling meeting someone and watching them grow and evolve. Its one of the most amazing perks of this business but during our freak out sessions our team never knew that we were freaking out and on Instagram I don’t highlight that because I'm a firm believer that where your energy goes you will get more of it in return. I focus on the positive, on whats going right, on the light and I ALWAYS get more of that in return.
 
Now back to the funny part…. The BIG DAY I woke up and I literally felt like it was my graduation party LMAO. I curled my hair, I felt so much peace in my soul and we invited some team members from Miami to hang out. From the moment we were in Presidents Team cuts those past feelings of anxiety and being scared shitless were gone. It was SOOO different! I like to believe it was the Universe’s little gift for us for not giving up and continuing to move forward. 

​All we dreamed about for 4 years was making it to that day and feeling EXACTLY how we were actually feeling that day! ISN’T THAT CRAZY!!! It was MAGIC guys. For 4 years all Javi and I talked about was strategy on how we were going to make it to this level. For 4 years all we dreamed about was reaching this level. Behind this level so many goals and dreams were going to be possible and the vision of reaching this position gave us fuel everyday to keep going.
 
More exciting things came after we hit it. We jumped on a FaceTime with our coaches and we laughed, cried, screamed and we were filled with so much happinesssss. They were by our side every single step of the way. Fabi & Alan supported us and guided us to change our lives and being one of their second diamonds is the best feeling ever! The next day the celebration continued!!!!!

Pool Party at Alan and Fabi’s house with Paella, balloons and holy shit it was just AMAZING. I’m not a big celebrator of birthdays but THISSSSSS felt like a birthday celebration I had never experienced before. IT WAS AMAZING!!!! Fabi and Alan truly outdid themselves because on top of EVERYTHING… Fabi & Alan surprised us with a trip to SAN FRANCISCO with them!!!
 
OMGGGGG! WHAT?! That shit was UNEXPECTED AF! LOL!! We left a couple days later.. First class I must add LOL and we had the best time everrrrr! We explored San Fran, wine tasted in Napa Valley and Sonoma which was like a DREAM and there Fabi and Alan surprised us with our Prez Team Pins hand delivered! LIKE WHAT? We usually have to wait months in the mail for them but of course they are just the shit like that LOL!! IT WAS MAGICAL! We went to Alcatraz, The Full House House and sooo much more!

I feel butterflies typing this and reliving it again. I ask myself sometimes like “Erika can you imagine how life would be if you never started the business”. I can’t even imagine because the experiences we have lived are something that I know I would have NEVER lived in my banking life. The internal growth, the people we’ve met, the lessons we’ve learned from, the financial growth everything has been soooooo worth the anxiety and fear we pushed through to make it here today. 
 
As I type this we are already 6 months later and soooo much more has happened!!! I’m excited to keep updating you all on my life changing experiences!!!
