Happy Scentsiversary!!!

Yesterday was my one year anniversary with Scentsy! And I wouldn't have wanted to spend it any other way: working the morning shift of the San Diego Fair with my director, Michelle Van Kirk! It's amazing to look back and see how far I've taken my business in a year. Even with my mid-year hiatus, I am thankful to have a wonderful group of customers, hosts, and Scentsy sisters to work with! I started Scentsy with a goal of putting myself through college without having to drown in student loan debt and so far I've been successful! :)

I'm four shifts into the San Diego County Fair season and let me just tell you how much fun I'm having! (Although I'm pretty sure I've gained five pounds in fried calamari, cookies, and cinnamon rolls.)I have met some fabulous customers and even more fabulous potential team-mates! (Not to mention the STELLAR people watching opportunities that present themselves.)

I'm very excited about growing my business. I spent this last Saturday getting my home office set up. It's a long way from finished, but having a designated space to work with everything organized around me makes me ACTUALLY feel like I have my own business (uh...it only took me about a year to figure that out. :)

The annual Scentsy convention is quickly approaching. July in Las Vegas is going to be a little warm, but my favorite person is coming out to Vegas with me and we get to have a much needed mini-vacation! This is my first convention and I have a feeling it is going to be an unforgettable one! Scentsy doesn't do anything halfway and knowing how much they appreciate their consultants, I know it'll be a blast!

My Scentsy cup is full and I'm looking forward to growing my team and sharing the Scentsy magic with others! :)

On Burnout...

Greetings friends!

I'm back from a 6 month long Scentsy hiatus. I'll admit, I had Scentsy burnout: not Scentsy's fault, purely my own. You see, I have a tendency to jump into things that I love head-first WITHOUT LOOKING. Imagine jumping off of a diving board into a pool without water. Ouch, right? Well that's me. And I have a tendency to do it over and over and over again. LOL.

I was so excited about the Scentsy opportunity that I booked parties, fairs and fundraisers galore last summer. I worked my business until I had nothing left in me. Nothing. I had burnt out. So I needed to take some time and re-focus myself and attack my Scentsy business scentsibly. (See what I did there?)

Well, I'm back, and raring to go! I'll be working 5 different shifts at the San Diego Fair this year: the evenings of June 12 and 13, then all of the Sundays following--June 17, 24, and July 1st. I'm so excited to get my business back up and running!

Stop by the fair and see me! Or better yet, contact me to host a party! Or even better than that--join my team! I'd love to share this wonderful opportunity with you!

Cheers!
Coreena :)
