Podcasts are a great way of utilising time whilst driving, commuting or doing household chores.
And of the millions of podcasts out there (thought to be 3-4 million), did you know that almost half (44%) have less than three episodes and only 720,000 make it beyond ten episodes? That number drops further to 156,000 (less than 5%) if we look at those shows which release weekly episodes.
This means the Forever Podcast is right up there when it comes to staying the distance.
As we look back over our podcast history that stretches to four years, the most listened-to podcast is our interview with nutritionist Gillian McKeith, in which she focused on gut health and why she is such an advocate of aloe vera (download and listen here).
The most popular listens of 2023 so far include interviews with mindset coach Andrea Marsh (download and listen here) and Forever Business Owners Lisa Prescott (download and listen here) and Diana Page (download and listen here).
Podcasts help us feel good
Podcasts are so much more valuable than being simply ‘time fillers’ when we are doing something mundane. Podcasts are a great learning tool, a form of entertainment and a means of relaxing. They are also beneficial in terms of helping us become good listeners, as well as stimulating our imaginations as we build images when listening to the ‘story’.
While most of us might believe our brains are actively choosing what to pay attention to, it is in fact trying to save resources and optimise energy. This means that instead of spotlighting what to pay attention to, our brain is actually blocking out information we find distracting. When we turn the majority of our attention to listening, it actually frees up mental capacity, because our eyes are no longer running the show.
This increased mental capacity means we have more cognitive resource available to listen, so we can actually pay more attention to what we are hearing. Without a visual aid, our listening is more active and attentive than when watching a video.
In fact, our brains invest over 10% more resource when processing audio on its own. And studies have shown that, when compared to audiovisual content, audio creates more alertness, attention, encoding and memory retrieval.
Listening to podcasts are the equivalent of modern day ‘stories’. Stories can help us feel more connected and inspired. What’s more, listening to others’ experiences can help us feel supported and foster a stronger sense of community.

Survey reveals that millennials are now the most likely to have a side-hustle
May-25-2023
Network Marketing is the fourth most popular way to make an additional income, a recent survey has revealed.* The survey completed by 8,500 respondents across 10 countries showed that millennials (61%) were most likely to have a side-hustle or other form of supplemental income (compared with 40% of baby boomers).**
Respondents also stated that their reasons for starting a side-hustle included dealing with the rising cost of living (40%), being less reliant on a single source of income (38%) and wanting to have a disposable income (36%).
58% of respondents admitted they have no idea what their financial future holds, while 51% said their financial situation negatively impacts their mental health.
Why people are starting a side-hustle
To deal with the rising cost of living and inflation - 40%
To be less reliant on a single source of income - 38%
To have a disposable income -36%
To have a financial safety net - 34%
To help support family members - 31%
To help pay off debt - 26%
To pursue a passion or hobby - 25%
To retire early or achieve financial freedom - 23%
Feeling the pinch from the rising cost of living
The survey also revealed that four in ten respondents have asked their loved ones for money over the past year to deal with the rising cost of living. Results show respondents are relying on others for help with essentials, including groceries (40%) and their rent or mortgage (29%).
Their parents (57%) and their friends (42%) were the people respondents were most likely to turn to for money. But a quarter have turned to a co-worker, while more than one in 10 have asked their child for money (15%) in the past year.
Network Marketing is the fourth most popular side-hustle
When asked about their side-hustles, selling products on e-commerce websites, content creation / writing and editing / proofreading were the most common.
But Network Marketing came fourth. And we perhaps shouldn’t be surprised with the growth in the millennial age category. Millennials are widely accepted as being entrepreneurial and looking for flexibility in their working lives.
Time investment in a side-hustle
On average, the survey revealed that those with a side-hustle commit an average of around eight-and-a-half hours per week to it. But this time can vary: 28% dedicate 3-5 hours, while 24% devote 6-10 hours per week.
And this is borne out by Direct Selling Association (DSA) UK’s latest research. Its 2022 Consultant Survey across the industry confirmed most people work less than 10 hours a week on side-hustles, 63% have other jobs and 36% work their businesses in the evenings.***

8. “I’m not just a mummy or a wife or a teacher. I have my own business and I’m extremely proud of how far I’ve come.” – Zoe Carter, PE Teacher
9. “I’m amazed at the skills I have gained through running my business. Before Forever, I could not use a computer and only had a phone to make the odd call! Now, at 76, I’m pretty good at all the techie stuff and I pay for help when I need to learn something new.” – Ann, Former District Nurse
10. "I love the fact I work for myself and that my Forever business has really developed me as a person. I used to be scared of meeting new people when I was working in sales, whether that be over the phone or face-to-face. But now, it’s what I enjoy the most!” – Daiana, Former Optical Advisor
11. “Through Forever, we have made our lives secure. I have peace of mind and have let go of any fear in my life.” – Marion Fitzgerald, who celebrates 30 years with Forever in May 2023
12. “The unexpected benefit along the way has been how much I have grown over the past nine years. It’s amazing how a positive culture can inspire you as an individual.

How Forever helps families
18. “My Forever income has allowed me to sponsor two children in Uganda for over fifteen years, help my extended family and have the time to embark on new interests – like triathlons and so much more.” – Diana Page

20. “Forever has allowed me to stay at home after my maternity leave.” – Steff Duborg, Former Teacher
21. “I knew absolutely nothing about running a business. It was the potential that excited me; knowing that other people (mums like me) were achieving full-time incomes working flexibly and part-time; knowing that I had all the support I needed to grow my business.” – Lisa Prescott, Former Police Detective
22. “Before Forever, I had no real structure; my life was determined by the airline roster that changed weekly. I now have control of my life; Forever has allowed me to be there for my boys unconditionally. I absolutely love what I do and wouldn’t change it for the world.” – Bettina Biazzo, Former Flight Attendant
23. “I feel free – that’s the best way to describe it. I won’t miss a thing with my children because I’m in charge of my diary. I’m not aware of another opportunity that would enable me the same work-life balance, lifestyle and financial security.” – Claire Massie, Former Teacher
24. “Having my daughter and partner around me all day is a blessing – and the flexibility that running my Forever business allows is a game-changer. I’m able to build an environment that encourages growth and development. But more importantly, one that teaches my daughter that life is about helping others, dreaming big and enjoying what you do.” – Hector Pradas
25. “My Forever income gave us a little bit of a cushion so that I was able to cut down on my hours during the summer months while the kids were on school holiday.” – Laura, Community Nurse
26. “I never thought I could inspire others, but I’ve developed mentoring skills. It’s impacted our family life too. My children see that you can plan out your life and you don’t have to just agree with what the situation is. Your dreams are valid.” – Sija, Former Nurse
27. “Through Forever, I hope to have more time to travel to see my family overseas and spend more time with friends.” – Daria, Police Officer
28. “Today, we enjoy a quality of life we did not even dream of. We have financial security and have created a legacy for our family. We have the time to create special memories with our children and grandchildren and make dreams come true.” – Chris Goldsborough, Former Corporate Director
29. “Being part of Forever has completely shifted my mindset and I feel excited about our future family life knowing that I am not stuck; that I can shape my own future and have the freedom and flexibility I crave.” – Mum of three, Aoife, who works in Accounts Payroll

It is therefore amazing to me that, for less than two hundred pounds, I could start a Forever business within a few days.” – Jan Oxenham, Fitness Professional who works her Forever business part-time
33. “When I graduate, I will have considerable University debt; running my Forever business around my studies and my other part-time role as an aesthetician is helping me reduce that.” – Hasti, Pharmacy Student
34. “Forever has a great network of leaders that teach you the skills required to build a consistent income over time and I’m now working significantly less hours than I was.” – Aimee, Mum
35. “Over the past 21 years, life has dealt me some curve balls and some challenges. Through the turbulence, Forever has offered me the stability to be able to navigate some major life upheavals. We cannot control life, but Forever can be relied on to provide a stable foundation. Forever is always here and, 21 years on, so am I.” – Toni
36. “Mum has given me the ultimate gift in willing me her business. Knowing I would be taken care of after she had gone, I know that gave her huge peace of mind.” – Felix, who inherited his mum’s Forever business
37. “After my husband’s health-scare, I knew I needed to step up to the plate to provide security for our daughter should the worst happen.

44. “When you first start building a business, the focus is on earning enough money to keep a roof over you and your family’s head. Once you’ve achieved that, the desire to help other people really kicks in. More than anything, my passion now is to make a difference in other peoples' lives – and I know I can share what I’ve learned with others and help them create businesses too.” – Jayne Leach, a Forever Business Owner for over 30 years

Explore the benefits of using Forever Immune Gummy
May-04-2023
Forever Immune Gummy is a brand-new product for 2023 that contains a blend of ten vitamins and zinc to help support immune system. All in a naturally sweet, tropical flavoured gummy that’s chewable, tastes great and is vegan friendly.
So, to learn more about the benefits of Forever Immune Gummy, we’ve put together a short Q&A to help you answer important questions and understand why this new Forever product is a great choice for anyone looking for a tasty, vitamin-packed supplement to support their immune system’s natural defences.
What is your immune system?
The immune system is a complex system of cells, proteins, organs and antibodies. And while we only tend to think of our immune system when we’re fighting colds or the flu, it’s actually working hard in the background every single day of our lives. This means knowing you’re supporting its normal function is most definitely a good thing.
What are gummy vitamins?
Gummy vitamins are ideal for those who find it difficult to swallow pills, but still want to enjoy all the benefits of a food supplement. Even better, gummy vitamins taste great and are easy to take on-the-go, making them perfect for those who lead an active lifestyle. Always remember: Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. They should complement it.
What is Forever Immune Gummy?
Forever Immune Gummy is a chewable, plant-based supplement that contains a blend of ten vitamins and zinc. It’s easy to chew with a naturally sweet tropical fruit flavour that’s preservative free.
And because Forever Immune Gummy is made using plant-based vitamin D, it’s suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
What are the key ingredients and what do they do?
Forever Immune Gummy is packed with ten vitamins and zinc designed to support your immune system’s natural defences.
Vitamins B6, C and D all contribute to the normal function of the immune system
Vitamin C also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and helps protect cells from oxidative stress
Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the nervous system and to a normal energy-yielding metabolism
Vitamin K contributes to the maintenance of normal bones
Zinc helps support the maintenance of normal hair, skin and nails
What sets Forever Immune Gummy apart from other chewable supplements on the market?
Many immune gummies on the market today are suitable for vegetarians and boast tropical fruit flavours. But unlike Forever Immune Gummy, not all immune gummies are gelatin-free and vegan-friendly.
What really sets Forever Immune Gummy apart, though, is the fact our formula uses a modified tapioca starch in place of gelatin. This makes the gummy more stable in hot and humid climates. So, you get all the benefits of the vitamins and minerals, but none of the hassle as they’re less likely to stick together in the container or melt in warmer temperatures.

As we approach Forever’s 45th Birthday, it is perhaps a good time to focus on the company’s flagship product: Forever Aloe Vera Gel.
The history of aloe
People have been using aloe vera for its soothing qualities since 2200 BC. For example, it has been said that Egyptian queens Nefertiti and Cleopatra used it as part of their regular beauty regimes.
It is also documented that Aristotle convinced Alexander the Great to capture the Island Socotra specifically to gain possession of its precious aloe groves.
And in Chinese culture, aloe has been used as far back as the times of Marco Polo’s Expeditions and the plant has played a role in the everyday life of China for centuries.
The properties of aloe vera
Aloe vera is a succulent plant. And while there are hundreds of species of aloe, it is the Aloe Barbadensis Miller species that is proclaimed as the best.
Aloe vera has powerful benefits that will help you to look better and feel better inside and out. From aiding with health and wellbeing to soothing and conditioning the skin, it also supports the immune system and is an ideal digestive aid.
Recommended by experts
There are many people who advocate the importance and impact of plants and plant-based nutrition on overall health and wellbeing.
TV presenter, nutritionist and author Gillian McKeith extols the benefits of aloe vera and you can listen to her in one of our popular podcasts. She describes aloe as her ‘go-to’ and often recommends it in her treatment plans with her clients. If you missed listening to the podcast the first time around, listen here – her reference to aloe vera starts at around 25 minutes. But the full podcast is well worth listening to and is our most downloaded to date.
Forever’s quality
Forever is the largest aloe manufacturer in the world. Across over 7,500 acres in Texas and the Dominican Republic, Forever grows 20 million plants and produces, on average, 60 million pounds of aloe vera each year.
Forever’s aloe is also hand harvested and uses only the inner leaf gel. It is processed within six hours and our unique, patented aseptic process ensures that the efficacy of the plant is preserved.
Forever’s flagship product – Forever Aloe Vera Gel – has 99.7% inner leaf aloe gel and now includes vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to a normal energy-yielding metabolism.
At Forever, we know our aloe vera. And Forever Aloe Vera Gel is just about as close to the real thing as you can get.

I joined the business through my love of the products and at that time I was also training to be a personal trainer, a job which I thought would fit around the children and mean I didn't have to give up my passion – fitness!

In pursuit of happiness by Charlene Salmon – Supervisor
I’m a single mother to a beautiful three year old boy called Alexander; he has been my source of true happiness and comfort since losing my younger brother to suicide in 2009. When my brother died, I lost so much of who I was; I had no idea of how to be, and my sense of purpose derailed.

After a heart-breaking time, Melanie decided that she wanted to spend her future with her family rather than pursuing a corporate career…
My journey started in August 2014 when we called around to our friends’ home. Martine (my now sponsor) was excited about this new business she was starting. I didn’t hear much through her excitement but I did hear ‘sacked the boss’, ‘dream car’ and ‘holidays’, so whilst I was excited for her I was completely sceptical. I was in a successful corporate role and there was no way someone could earn the kind of salary that it had taken me many years to achieve doing what she was talking about. I decided to go along to a Business Presentation as I wanted to make sure she wasn’t involved in a scam, but I returned home the proud owner of a Business Owner Box! What won me over was the idea of time freedom and that you could be successful whilst working at home. I was working forty plus hours, my emails would buzz all night, and I had a family to care for, but I just knew I had to make time for Forever.
I loved my twenty-year career in the buying industry but when I gave birth to my son Oscar everything started to change. Then, in 2009 our lives were turned upside down when we lost our twin baby boys shortly after they were born. I didn’t cope and wouldn’t accept what had happened; I blamed myself and was living in a dark tunnel. My husband then lost his job as his company went into liquidation; we had no money and no fight, but it was Oscar that kept us going.
The journey to living our lives again started when I started my Forever business. I hit Manager in less than two months and although I was initially sceptical, my disbelief faded when I took the time to research the business model. Building a business requires hard work but I knew I could do it, and it wasn’t the money that drove me, but the time I could have with my children. We wanted another baby and I no longer wanted to rush back to work so instead I focused on my Forever business.
Fast forward two years and I’m a Senior Manager, Global Rally and Chairman’s Bonus qualifier, and I have also achieved many other incentives on the Marketing Plan. I now feel able to create a future which isn’t filled with sadness, and I’m learning to enjoy the journey and accept challenges. I have complete time freedom and we’ve since had a baby girl which is the icing on the cake.

A HEART TO HELP OTHERS
Claire has always had a passion and heart to help others which is why she qualified in childcare and secured a post as a nanny. However, soon afterwards she was made redundant and faced with having to decide what to do next…
I’m a Christian and after going to a young people's camp with church I was introduced to the idea of mission work. When I was nineteen I decided to move to Brazil and volunteer with an organisation called YWAM. I helped in a refuge home for children with HIV and it was there I met my husband. Together we continued with mission work which included working in a home for young single mums, a home for young pregnant girls, and in the Cafezal Slums in Belo Horizonte. We also took some time out to study counselling so that we could learn how to further help families and children. We continued working in Brazil after the birth of our daughter Sophie and our son Samuel, but in December 2014 we decided we needed to return to the UK; Sophie was four and Samuel was two.
Once back in the UK I had to find work to support my family as it would take a while before my husband secured his visa. I was grateful to find a hotel cleaning job that let me work during school hours, but it was hard work and it didn’t pay well. I eventually found another job as a nanny that I thought would give us the flexibility my family needed. My husband got his visa and although I really enjoyed my job, the long days were exhausting and I had to let my employer down several times to work around my own kids. It was time to find something different. I wanted work that would fit around my children, but also something that would allow me to help others and bring in a good income.
My friend introduced me to Forever and I could see it was the solution. My whole family now benefit from the products and we are all so much healthier and happier for finding Forever. I've loved every minute of it, I've grown in myself and I work the business part-time. I have an international business, a friend from Brazil has joined my team, and I can enjoy spending the summer holidays with my children. I’m dyslexic but I’ve found Forever to be very welcoming, the training is outstanding and I’ve received so much support. Our ultimate dream is for Forever to be our sole income so that we can both go back to serving on mission projects and helping others in need.

Based in south-west London, Matt enjoyed a successful career working for a major brand. He was focused, passionate and hardworking, but the long hours and lack of time began to tarnish the corporate dream…
I started my Forever journey back in February 2015 whilst working for a large well-known soft drinks brand. I headed up their national sales team which consisted of over 130 managers, and while some may say I had the perfect career, I always believed there was more to life than working a sixty-hour week and having no time to yourself.
Fortunately, I saw the Forever opportunity as my way out of the corporate rat race. I set a goal to get to a place where I’d be able to quit my job within five months, and exactly five months later I resigned. I knew that working alongside such an incredible company with amazing products would work, so I began building a business by following everything that my upline told me to do. Kyle Burrows and Emma Cooper were outstanding mentors!
I achieved Manager in three months by working my business around my job, and alongside managing my own personal £multi-million international property portfolio. I was also having my house extended and I was in the middle of buying a new three-bed London apartment to rent out. I may have been busy, but I made time for my Forever business; it was going to set me up for the future and once there I would never have to look back!
I now have four amazing Managers based in Scotland, and a team of over 300 people – we are like one big happy family! The friendships you make in Forever are incredible; these people are going to be in my life for the rest of my days, and the journey we are going to walk together makes me ‘smile’. When I was at Global Rally in South Africa, I looked around and, whilst holding back emotion, I knew I was working for something special when I saw such inspirational and highly motivational people.
I am more committed than ever to carry on building my business with Forever, and Senior Manager is firmly set on the horizon, but I have also had the time to retrain in something I’ve always been passionate about – property. I have now qualified as a self-employed mortgage and insurance advisor and I intend to work this role alongside my Forever business. Forever has given me options; options to have more time, freedom, and the ability to do what I want, when I want, and with whom I want. That is priceless! I would like to thank everyone who is playing a key part in my journey and I am super-excited for the years ahead.
"The friendships you make in Forever are incredible; these people are going to be in my life for the rest of my days."
Forever found me at a time in my life when I truly believe I needed it the most. At the time, I had three young kids, all below the age of five, with the two youngest only thirteen months apart. My kids and my husband Ross are my rocks, my inspiration, and the ones who drive me to be the best I can be…
Before Forever I was a bank branch manager and I’d worked in the same corporate organisation for fifteen years. I had a great salary, a great team and it was my dream job. Life was good but when I fell pregnant with Poppy (our third), things started to change.
One month before Poppy was born my mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer. My whole world fell apart. She underwent a life-threatening operation the day before Poppy was born and I suddenly realised that this ‘dream job’ I thought I had wasn’t going to work anymore. It was missing something crucial – work-life balance. It was clear that juggling three young kids, a corporate career and mum’s illness just wasn’t possible. I had no time, and sadly time was running out for mum faster than we thought.
After I had Poppy, I was desperate to lose some ‘baby weight’, so I decided to try the C9. Afterwards I looked great and felt amazing, and the lady I bought it from suggested I take a look at the business opportunity. I took one look at the Marketing Plan and knew straight away that I was in.
Suddenly I had found a business that I could work around nap times, mum’s treatments, feeds, hospital visits, school, kids’ clubs, etc. I had found my way out, and a way to create the work-life balance I craved.
Forever has given us so much. Fast-forward to 2017, and we have an extended family home, we have managed to take the kids to Disney and I have travelled to places I could only dream of before. With our first Chairman’s Bonus cheque we were able to replace our old car, and the remainder went to Strathcarron Hospice where my mum spent her last ten days (she sadly passed away in January 2016).
The most important thing that this business has given us is memories and the time to create them; memories with Ross and the kids, and memories with mum. We were able to take her on trips, and I was able to be by her bedside twenty-four hours a day when she was in the hospice. This was the moment I realised that the business opportunity has the potential to change lives – it had certainly changed mine!
"I took one look at the Marketing Plan and knew straight away that I was in. Suddenly I had found a business that I could work around nap times, mum’s treatments, feeds, hospital visits, school, kids’ clubs, etc."
Angelina and her husband Marlon both work crazy hours but this led to them looking into the Forever opportunity. Angelina realised that working the business would soon give her the time freedom she craved…
My journey with Forever started when a friend of mine contacted me to highlight the fabulous opportunity. It took a couple of attempts of contact, but once we met, I signed on the spot – I was so excited about starting a new journey and I felt it would really benefit my family.
My husband and I both work long shifts which means we’re constantly juggling childcare for our two children Paige and Dylan. I work for the emergency services, which means a varied shift pattern often at unsociable times, and my husband's job is of a similar ilk. Fitting in quality family time is a nightmare so one of the main reasons for starting the business was so that I could earn enough to free up time, time that could be spent together as a family.
My Business Owner Box arrived and I got to work. I made sure I started by familiarising myself with the products and I quickly saw the benefits which helped to fuel my enthusiasm. I also knew early on that I wanted to build a team; I wanted to help others like me achieve their goals and dreams, and I loved the idea of giving them an opportunity which could lead to a better future and lifestyle.
Forever has helped me to become more confident by taking me out of my comfort zone. I’ve met so many new and different people – my normal daily routine wouldn't allow this – and this has helped me immensely. I have travelled to many cities thanks to building my business, and I’m consistently broadening my knowledge. I'm excited about our future and it’s now looking even brighter; the prospect of dropping my hours at work is looking more likely and this means I’ll be able to spend more quality time with my family whilst I continue to grow my business.
"Forever has helped me to become more confident by taking me out of my comfort zone."
Ex-professional footballer Darren was on top of his game having played for premiership and championship team Blackburn Rovers (and other clubs) from the age of fourteen. However, when he was in his mid-twenties, an injury caused everything to change. His partner, Charlotte Hawes, shares his story…
Darren’s life was football, football, football. Every day was about working on his fitness, training and being healthy, and if he wasn’t on a football pitch or in the gym, he was on the golf course! Darren played with and against top players and he would visit and play in various countries – he was ‘living the dream’. But, in 2008, Darren suffered a snapped cruciate and problems with his knees, and although he is still playing local football, his professional career had to come to an end.
Darren was devastated as football was all he knew from such a young age. He had to have four knee operations and it was becoming a daily struggle for him to work and walk, never mind trying to play football!
Darren discovered Forever whilst working at a client’s house and soon realised, without knowing the details, that there was a very good opportunity available. Darren recommended the business to me as he knew I was at a crossroads – I had very little spare time and no work-life balance, and we instantly saw an opportunity to earn (in time) a substantial income alongside a flexible lifestyle.
We signed up and I currently play the lead role whilst Darren shares his product experiences and the opportunity to everyone he meets. So far the business has given us amazing friendships, it’s allowed us to set goals and get excited, and we can now start to build a career together and plan for a future we didn’t think was possible.
Darren and Charlotte on F15…
Darren found Forever's products to be of great benefit to him and he is now keen to use the products to help him get back to the level of fitness he was pre-injury. Darren and Charlotte are currently part-way through the F15 programme. Here is what they have to say:
“F15 is fantastic and having a programme to follow for diet and exercise is giving me the best chance to get in shape and stay in shape. My motivation to be at a high level of fitness is back and I will reach the goals I’ve set. Since starting the programme, I’ve started to see definition and I’ve lost some weight in the process. If you’re doing F15, don’t give up, dig in and get it done – the end goal is always worth it.” – Darren Dunning
“Being a keen sportsperson myself but having struggled to get back into a regular fitness regime, the structure of F15, along with the brilliant workout videos that Forever produced, has given me the kick and the support I needed to get back on track.” – Charlotte Hawes
I came out of school with a D as my highest GCSE and I was incapable of committing to even one year of college. At sixteen I went straight into an office administration role, but I only lasted a week! I picked myself up and tried again and landed a customer service role. This time six months went by, but then I was in the same situation, booted out for the better of the company! This pattern lasted for the years that followed.
I have dyslexia, ADHD and I’ve suffered with depression for a number of years. I can articulate and hold a good conversation so I don’t often come across like someone diagnosed with dyslexia, but I've always struggled to stay on task. I get distracted easily and time slips through my fingers. Writing is difficult and takes me a long time, and to concentrate on something is really hard work for me. These things, along with terrible time-keeping and a worse attitude, put a strain on me progressing in life.
When I was twenty-two I decided I was better suited to self-employment. I entered a modelling competition and for the first time I knew what I wanted. I moved to London to pursue it properly and through the jobs I received I met some incredible people, gained great experience and it was something I could pick up when I wanted. Unfortunately I just didn’t have the drive to push myself so I ended up returning to the office. After a year and a half I had had enough; I was tired and underpaid and I was also slipping into deeper depression.
I went to Bethan as a shell of my former self. For the first time in three years I was ready to listen to her. I had no idea if I could do it and I lacked self-belief, but I had nothing to lose. I wanted to learn and see if the business could do all the things it promised.
The more I worked the business and developed myself as a person, the more obvious it became that I had to make some serious life choices. In the space of a week I left my relationship, my home, a mortgage, the city, attended a funeral, and I helped my Nan through depression. Forever became a focus away from everything else, and I put all my efforts into helping, advising and guiding my team. My upline’s advice and dedication to me and my team kept me strong and excited, and I absolutely adore where my life is headed. I chose to believe the impossible was possible and now I’m proud to say I’ve found something I can, and will, commit to.
FUELLED BY FITNESS
I joined the business through my love of the products and at that time I was also training to be a personal trainer, a job which I thought would fit around the children and mean I didn't have to give up my passion – fitness! I'd been a stay-at-home mum for six years at this point; I was lucky as I didn’t have to work, but I really missed my financial independence and that sense of providing for the family.
I spent the first year retailing, mainly the sports and weight management products, and I built a great retail business, but I was petrified when it came to building a team. I had little belief that anyone would listen to me and I worried about their opinions, so I sat happily at Supervisor for about ten months. Then, in February 2014, my third child was born and everything changed.
I met up with my upline who gave me a small nudge and I left that meeting with self-belief, a fire in my belly and a huge desire to have something more. I spent a lot of time working with my team, working on my self-development and learning to get better in all areas of the business, and I’ve developed a passion for helping others and seeing in them something they don't. I have recently separated from my husband and it’s been incredibly challenging, but Forever has given me the financial stability to start my life again. I now work Forever around three beautiful children and I've still not had to give up on my fitness passion. In fact, Forever has enabled me to achieve more. The products have changed my performance in the gym – I use Forever Aloe Vera Gel, Forever Arctic Sea and Argi+ daily, and Forever Pro X2 bars and Forever Lite Ultra are also staple snacks in my life.
I use my attitude to training in the gym to benefit my mindset in the business. When you want to achieve a goal in the gym you have to dedicate time to learning how that’s done, you have to be passionate and fired up enough so that the goal is tunnel vision, and you have to take daily consistent action! There will be tough days where you feel it’s not possible, but you just support yourself with a good coach who encourages you, and when you are training in the gym at times when others are out socialising, you hear things like 'lighten up' or 'you're crazy', but you go even on the days you don't want to because the goal is that important to you – my success in Forever has been down to applying this exact mindset to my business!
FLEXIBLE FUN
Yvette has always been a firm believer in fate, and although she never understood the laws of attraction, she always felt that things happened for a reason…
I originally wanted to be a physiotherapist but when I was on a year out I decided to start a career in marketing. I eventually moved into B2B marketing for some of the top marketing agencies serving the technology industry. I enjoyed the casual, creative and fun environment of working for an agency, and I was running some of the world’s largest technology accounts, such as Microsoft. It was more than 9-5, and I was fine with that until I had my family. After having my daughters I decided to work for myself, part time and freelance so that I could choose my hours and work flexibly around the family. But when my son was five months old, out of nowhere I came down with severe pneumonia. It was so bad I had to have my husband write my will. It took me two years to properly get back on my feet and the result left me with a heart condition.
When Jack turned four and started school, I was deciding whether or not to take on more freelance work. That’s when I wondered whether there was ‘profit’ to be made from the Forever products. One of my best friends told me about the C9 six months earlier and after completing the programme I felt incredible. The products had won me over, but I didn’t know anything about the business side or even that there was one. I decided to approach a lady who had a stall at a local village carnival to find out more. We met for coffee and she presented the business to me. I sat there quietly and I was surprised to learn that there was a whole marketing plan behind the products. The opportunity ticked a lot of boxes for me in terms of flexible working, and in all honesty, I thought it was too good to be true.
My timing couldn’t have been worse. We’d just moved out of our house for renovation and I was working every day. We had children at three different schools and we were living at my parents. I was going to put it off until the new year, but my husband encouraged me to give it a go. I spent a month using the products and learning the business, and I started to qualify for incentives. I achieved Supervisor over the following two months and that’s when I became serious; within six months I was promoted to Manager! I absolutely love my team and who I’ve met along the way – Forever has given me a sense of purpose, but more importantly, flexible fun and an opportunity not to be missed.
"The opportunity ticked a lot of boxes for me in terms of flexible working, and in all honesty, I thought it was too good to be true. "
EMBRACE EVERY BIT OF TIME
At twenty-five years old Becky has achieved a lot to be proud of, including building a successful business. Through the tough times, it was her mindset and the support of her team that carried her through…
My background is in neonatal nursing caring for premature babies. I started my Forever business in December 2014 intending to stop having to take on overtime. Some weeks I found myself working sixty - seventy hours at the hospital as I was trying to save for my wedding the following year.
Within five months of joining the business, I had reached Manager and matched my nursing income. This enabled me to stop my overtime, but it also meant I could go part time at the hospital. This was then followed by a six-month career break as I was dealing with some stressful situations near the end of 2015. In the space of a month, I got married, lost my Nan and lost our first baby.
Forever helped me to get through those hard times by giving me something to focus on. I had received a lot of support and training throughout my time in the business, and I had a good mindset. This meant I was able to deal with all I was going through and I could continue to build my Forever business whilst remaining positive. Even though it was a sad end to the year, I still qualified for Global Rally (1500CC) and I have since qualified for Senior Manager. After achieving this promotion I was able to hand in my notice at my nursing job. Forever has given me the vision that anything is possible. Life is too short, and I want to embrace everything and make the most of every bit of time I have with my friends and family. I loved my nursing job, but I love my freedom and flexibility more – that is what Forever has given me. Forever has also given me a lot of self-confidence. Confidence and self-belief is something I've always struggled with; speaking to people in large groups, never mind presenting a Business Presentation, absolutely terrified me. However, with the support of my upline and the belief that they gave me, I now regularly present at my local Business Presentation, I host my own trainings and webinars, and I have more confidence than I have ever had in my life. Confidence is something I never thought I would have, but thanks to Forever, I know that I can do anything if I put my mind to it – and I will!
REBUILDING A FUTURE
You never know what life is going to throw at you and when something affects your health it can be difficult to see a way out. Supervisor Mike Fielder eventually found the light at the end of his tunnel, but the journey getting there was far from a smooth ride.
I suffered a herniated disc when I was eighteen years old and I’ve lived with pain ever since. When I was twenty-one I had an operation but they made a real mess of it and refused to believe me when I told them the pain was worse.
It wasn’t until eight years later, when MRI scans were available, that the doctors realised I had three prolapsed discs and a compressed spinal canal. The situation was pretty serious and I had to re-mortgage my house to pay for a private operation the following month. Fortunately the surgery was successful.
Everything was fine for ten years and I was even able to start my own construction business. My business was a success and everything was going well until one morning, whilst rushing around getting ready for work, I tripped and fell down the stairs.
I undid all the good work the surgeon had done and I was eventually told that a further operation would do more harm than good. My body was starting to fuse the vertebrae on its own and the pain was unbearable. I did try to live a normal life but the pain was making me lose all concentration and common sense.
It was during this time that I noticed an old friend posting on Facebook about a company called Forever. At first I took no notice, but after a few months I decided to find out more and I was invited along to a Business Presentation.
I spent the whole hour trying to find fault with the business, and when I couldn't I jumped on board. I needed a new future, but what I found was nothing short of a miracle.
The products have been amazing, I'm now building a fantastic business with my own team, and I can't wait to qualify for the incentives in the future. Forever has been the physical and
mental vehicle I needed to get my life back on track, and I can't recommend the opportunity highly enough.
"I needed a new future, but what I found was nothing short of a miracle."
BELIEVE AND ACHIEVE
When I was a little girl I didn’t know what I wanted to be when I grew up, and every time I was asked my answer would change. I always knew I was good with people and wanted to make a difference, but I guess I didn’t have clear goals…
Eventually the career I fell into was in learning and development; I was helping people and I felt proud, and I assumed I’d carry on until I was ready to retire. However, things changed in 2011 when I injured my spine and couldn't work for months. In the end they made my role redundant and I spent my days alone, unable to move without medication, and with the knowledge that I had no job to go to. I sunk into depression but instead of seeking counselling, I just got on with it. Life carried on, I had surgery, got a new job, and got together with my best friend Ricky. I was happy again and we
discovered we were expecting a baby; Jack was born and things were perfect!
I was made redundant again whilst on maternity leave, and, out of desperation, I took on a fixed-term contract and forfeited some maternity leave and pay.
This is when I met my sponsor. I decided to start a Forever business as I was nervous about the corporate world and felt insecure with having a child. I saw the potential instantly and knew that I was where I needed to be. I could genuinely help people to change their lives. It fit, it felt right and I was excited.
I got to work, absorbed everything, attended every training and Success Express, and I stalked the leaders to see what they were doing. I hit two promotions straight away but that didn’t mean things were perfect. I had given myself some massive goals and got frustrated when I didn’t hit them. I had to have an honest conversation with myself and that’s when I identified that my mindset wasn’t right. I had let my past experiences affect my confidence
and deep down I didn’t believe I was capable of success. I started to work on my mindset and already I’ve noticed a change in my motivation. I have some amazing goals that I know are realistic and achievable, I believe in myself again and I know Forever believes in me and
has given me all the tools required to succeed.
"I could genuinely help people to change their lives.
It fit, it felt right and I was excited."
In pursuit of happiness by Charlene Salmon – Supervisor
I’m a single mother to a beautiful three year old boy called Alexander; he has been my source of true happiness and comfort since losing my younger brother to suicide in 2009. When my brother died, I lost so much of who I was; I had no idea of how to be, and my sense of purpose derailed.
Although dealing with his death continues to be hard, I know I live a fortunate life: I have worked hard to build a solid career and run my own marketing consultancy – which provides a healthy income. I own my own home, I have family and wonderful friends, but even with this in place, my son was the only one who made me truly happy. However, I knew it was unfair to place the entire reason for my happiness on his tiny shoulders; it’s far too much responsibility for someone so small.
I came to join Forever when Lucy Snell approached me via LinkedIn. Although we had never met, we both worked at the same place during different times. She sent me a link to watch, and even though I didn’t understand anything about the business, I jumped straight in – I am always up for a piece of the action! Since joining, there have been huge changes in me as a person, and I have finally found something that has given me direction – I now have a focus like I’ve never had before.
As I worked towards Supervisor, much of my time was spent getting to grips with the business and Marketing Plan. This enabled me to recruit confidently, but I also made sure I used and understood the products. I definitely have an emotional connection to the products and I’m able to recommend them to others with ease. From a personal development point of view, Forever has encouraged me to do things I may not have done before: I have come out of my comfort zone, set goals, made big plans, learnt new skills and focused heavily on my mindset. All this has caused my inner confidence to grow to a level I didn’t even know existed. I’m sure the money will come, but the way I feel now outweighs any monetary value – I have finally found something else that makes me happy. Forever is the start of something huge inmy life; I cannot wait to see where the journey takes me.
Forever Flexible by Lynne Fryer – Assistant Manager
I joined Forever when I learnt I could earn money from home by working flexibly around my daughter and my university course.
I’ve been a single parent since my daughter was born, and although I have a professional background in marketing, I was told I couldn’t return to work part time due to 'business requirements' – whatever that means! I fought the decision, and ultimately got nowhere, so I got another job. However, I quickly lost this when my daughter developed a lung condition and I had to take time off. For twelve months I found myself stuck in a pattern of starting new jobs and losing them for being 'unreliable'; eventually enough was enough.
I'd never been on benefits before but suddenly this was starting to look like the only (and better) option. Instead I decided to go to university to study. I figured I would only be hurting myself if I had to rush off to collect my daughter from nursery; by being at university I wouldn't have the pressure of letting employers down. However, I knew that when I finished for summer I would have to get a job again to see me through until September, but I was scared. Scared of letting people down and being spoken to like I wasn’t capable of doing my job.
When my friend told me about Forever, I had just been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, which meant I was suffering with male-pattern baldness. I was intrigued by the products and started drinking the Aloe Vera Gel and I also did the C9.
I became so emotionally attached to these products that I knew I had to join. Since joining Forever I have made a lot more friends – my Forever family – and not only am I earning money, I can now fit work around my daughter, who is three, AND continue to study. My daughter will always be the most important thing to me, but my Forever business is a very close second – I've definitely got my sense of spirit back!
My background is in admin, a role I fell into from school because I thought it was the only thing I was good at, and I had lost all my confidence through a difficult marriage which led to an unpleasant divorce. All of a sudden I had become a single mum whose life revolved around looking after my three incredible children.
My life transformed after I went to a friend’s party. I listened to the Forever business opportunity and realised that this could be a way to earn a few extra hundred pounds – I liked the idea of being able to afford a holiday abroad. Despite the incentive, I still held many fears regarding signing up: I have never been good at selling, and the thought of standing up in front of people at a launch made me feel sick. However, I was at a point in life where my children had grown up and flown the nest, and I longed to go abroad, but my salary just didn’t stretch to this.
I finally decided to ignore my concerns and sign up, and with full support from my partner, children, family and friends, I have managed to sell products, hold launches and grow a retail business, even though 4CCs seemed unachievable in the first couple of months. These achievements are a product of sheer determination and a whole lot of practice! I would practice everywhere: in the car, the bath, the mirror...on my children, friends and family. I was sick of hearing my voice – but it worked. After about four months, people started to see my new-found confidence and I was surprised when they asked to join my team. This is where the excitement really begun and before I knew it I had eight team members, had achieved my level one and two 4CCs pin, had progressed to Assistant Manager, and mentored one of my team to Supervisor.Now I wake up excited every day, and although I squeeze the role in aroundmy full-time job, I can’t wait to get toa point where I can earn enough tore-evalute this situation. I reallywish someone had told me about Forever years ago!
