Our guest is Lisa Durant
who will tell you about her wonderful
work at home business.

From One Mom To Another...

First, I just want to take a minute to introduce myself! My name is
Lisa Durant, I am the mom to my 9 month old miracle baby, Aiden (we'll
get into that in a minute) and wife to my wonderful husband, Tom. We
live in the Massachusetts, just outside of Boston.

Prior to having Aiden this past April, I entertained the thought of
finding something successful and legitimate to do from home... I was
simply considering the idea of "maybe" having the opportunity to stay
home with Aiden. Our finances were quite tough, therefore I could
only entertain the thought and not really ever plan to do so. I was
an elementary school teacher at the time, quite happy with my job and
simply beginning to plan our future... I wasn't even pregnant yet!!!
So... I searched the internet day and day out... trying EVERY work for
home biz. that offered MONEY! Bad move... I tried the home typist
job, the data processer, the MLM business... all scams... at least the
ones I can across!

A bit dicsouraged, yet determined... I kept looking and soon came
across a wonderful team of like-minded individuals that were NOT
offering me lots of money or the answer to all my prayers... rather
they offered me an option. An option to build a home business, with a
legitmate company, on a part time basis that could allow me someday to
have the answers to my prayers. The support, training, guidance was
there... yet it was up to me to determine my destiny. Have you heard
the saying... "If it's up to me it's got to be"!

So... I joined the team... still not pregnant... and worked one on one
with my mentor and the incredible support team, building a home
business. Because we all live across the US... the training and
support was all done through conference calls.. Beats having to leave
the house for a meeting. Quicker than I ever expected, I had a nice
supplemental income each and every month. I did this business, when
my life allowed me too, after teaching in the evening or on Sunday
night when I had nothing else to do! I certainly was motivated and
gave it some good effort, but it was never something that "too much"
of my time.

Now I had this supplemental income to rely on that month in and month
out that grew to be a bigger income... I knew this was something I
could rely on and my husband felt secure with. Time to have a baby!
Well, we were very lucky to get pregnant in a short time frame. The
unfortunate part was that my pregnancy prooved to be VERY complicated.
I spent many months on bedrest when I was finally admitted to the
hospital at 24 weeks gestation with no fluid. Within days of being in
the hospital in pre-term labor, my water broke. This is a long
story... we'll just cut to the chase and get back on track. At 29
weeks 5 days (I lasted that long without delivering) my 3 pound little
Aiden was born... not breathing. He ws rushed to intensive care where
he was put on high frequency ventialtion. God must have been looking
over us that day, because to the surprise of all the neonatologist,
Aiden pulled through. 86 days later - Aiden came home with his mommy
and daddy and is doing truly wonderful today! He is our miracle and
my WHY for staying home and working from home!

When I began entertaining the idea of working from home, I knew so
little as to what my furture would hold for me. Because I took one
more chance, beleived in something, I have helped my family in so many
ways. During the 5 months my son and I were in the hospital, we had
an income to rely on - the income I make is residual, therefore we are
paid month in and month out for the work we do one time. I didn't
have to worry about the financial constraints that would have been put
upon us had I not had this income.

Now that Aiden is home, I can work around his schedule and the
important things in my life! With The Stayin Home and Lovin It Team we
are REAL people, just like you... we are moms, dads, grandmas,
grandpas, moms to be, etc! We were all looking for something we could
be proud of... something we could rely on! We don't sell, stock or
deliver products and we are not sales people or telemarketers. We are
simply representatives for an absolutely fabulous International
Wellness Company. We work together to help you build your business
with them.

Whether you are looking to create a supplemental income, repalce an
income or are simply looking for some "options" in your life like I
was... I highly encourage you to give this team a chance! Had I not
done so 23 months ago, my little miracle would probably have to be in
a daycare having someone else raise him! Rather, he is home with his
mom... staying healthy and keeping me entertained day in and day out!

I wish you luck in whatever it is you encounter and choose to do! The
Stayin Home and Lovin It Team always welcomes new members that are
serious about making some postive changes in their life!
