Welcome to the Personal Blog of Jenn K May!
As a Single Mom in Poverty, Jenn K May has risen above the odds of being just another statistic. Living on a path of despair and hardship she was able to bring her dream into reality by simply helping others, having a true purpose to impact many other’s lives on a deeper level. In September of 2010 she started down an incredible path of life changes that would bring her to only what many would call a “Dream Life”. Coming into her own as a Successful Network Marketer earning a Multiple Six Figure Income was not an easy road. She made it a purpose to overcome and face any obstacle or challenge that came in her way and persevered into what she always KNEW was destined to be…
Years of Hardship, Frustration and No Answers…
Growing up and living in poverty up until I was 29 years old, was not what I would say as the best of times. I have always been a hard worker and someone who gave until there was nothing left to give. Beginning my journey as a child along a road of struggle and sadness… watching my Parents scrounge up what they could to keep a roof over our heads and food on our table broke my heart. It also drove me to be something MORE when I grew up. Coming into my own at the young age of 16 years old I faced what many can probably resonate with.
I spent years in hardship, struggles and frustration just trying to make a better life for myself. Becoming a young Mother was not so much a difficult time in my eyes as it was a true blessing to make that change I so very much needed. At the tender age of 21 years old I had my first daughter and what I would say the savior to a road that would have led to very dark times. Facing Bankruptcy and no place to live I had almost given up hope on what could come of not only my life but now my daughter’s life. You see, it was not just me I had to worry about now; it was a little one who needed me.
An Open Door that Led to a Closed Door…
The beginning of a search for something more is what I could only say now as an incredible learning experience. From the year of having my first daughter I started upon a path of Entrepreneurship, with really no idea of what that meant. While working in the Restaurant Industry just trying to make a way, struggling to get by… I now found myself looking for something more. Something that would bring me home to my beautiful, baby girl.
As 3 to 4 years passed by, I watched thousands of dollars go into many opportunities that did not pan out. I remember maxing out credit cards, sacrificing bills and selling my belongings just to start the next best thing I came across. What I always hoped to be the answer at the time. I became desperate but also focused on what could make that change. I HAD TO, I had no choice… it was the only way in my eyes.
Flash Forward…
Now with a second daughter, I became even more hungry, more driven for a different life. One without despair or hardship. One where I could sit at the beach peacefully while my children played in the sand… with no worry about when or how I would pay my bills. Financial Freedom was my goal and helping others was my purpose.
I found my first semi-success in Network Marketing. I was able to learn and grow so tremendously in this 3-year time. I became very skilled in recruiting and literally built a business from scratch with no prior success. Bringing in 400 people in that 3 years time, I felt I had hit an incredible mile-stone on my path. Only issue was the income did not suffice the work, effort and results I had created over this time. I now faced many people I was trying to help with almost no hope. The Community I built also was not making an income, we were struggling and frustrated and needless to say I was still in poverty. The tip of my success was at most $1,000 to $2,000 a month. Average was $600… so how could I be confident or passionate that someone else could make a change in their life?
I became a SPONGE to the industry, I focused on learning and gaining skill sets. Stepping into more of a Professional level of Online Marketing I now knew there was more out there. I now could see the Six Figure Income in my reach, only question was how? As I grew into a different level of the Industry, branding myself and producing my own products. I could see the benefit of Community but also was now seeing that what I was doing was still trading time for money.
Back to the Drawing Board…
About a year trying to figure out what path I needed to go down, I kept coming back to Network Marketing. I knew in my heart that was the answer as I saw the benefit for many years that I spent in it. So now came a new chapter, a new time. I met two of the most amazing people who would guide me to a better life. I really had know idea the journey we were about to embark on together, I just knew in my heart that they would lead me to the place I had always dreamed of, not only for myself but for so many others.
I now saw one door close and another one open.. I had finally found my answer.
Single Mom, Poverty and Courage…
As this transformation was happening in my business, I now was faced with a very difficult challenge in my life. The Father of my 2 daughters and I decided to separate. His solution to our situation was to move to another state which in result left me in even more poverty. Not only being in poverty with him I now somehow had to find an apartment on my own, somehow pay my bills, get daycare, pick up extra shifts at work and build a business from home. I had the strength, I knew what it would take and I committed to the process.
I became truly blessed with what some would say as your “One Shot”…. I took it. This opportunity I truly believed only came once in a lifetime and I took advantage. At this point I knew the investment that would have to be contributed and it was going to be a challenge. You see, I could not pay my rent at the time. So it was either borrowing the money to pay my rent or taking a chance and borrowing the money to start my New Network Marketing Venture…
Of course I took the chance! Who wouldn’t? As you get to know me, I am one who truly believes where you put your heart, your time, your energy, your faith and your money is exactly where you will see results. So I invested into that business I now call my home and the next few months I saw my life change before my eyes…
Single Mom in Poverty to Multiple 6 Figures in less than 12 months…
Fast Forward to 4 months in business… I have now fired my Boss and hit $5,000 a month income. I don’t know about you but I had NEVER made that amount of income in my life, in fact that prior year I only made $20,000 all year long. Taking you 8 months in business I now hit an incredible momentum and embarked on that 6 Figure mark, which led to reaching a Multiple 6 Figure income in less than 12 months.
I look back now to that first year that I took that chance, made that choice and had faith in what I knew was to come… and I am awe of what came to not only my life but so many others in the process. Let me share with you one of the most AMAZING parts of this entire transformation, in the process of changing my life I was able to impact and change hundreds of others. It was due to bringing a Community of people together with one common purpose, goal and vision. It grew to be something much more than we ever dreamed of (and is just the beginning!).
The people I am surrounded by, the success and life changes on a daily basis that I have been an integral part of only defines to me what true abundance, success and prosperity is made of. A joint effort and vision to impact lives on an epic level.
It is YOUR TURN…
I encourage you to not sit on the sidelines. Do not wait for something special to fall into your lap. Go out there and take MASSIVE Action with full faith towards that vision. See it before you see it and COMMIT to the process. Faith without action is simply a glorified wish. BE the change, do not hope for the change. Lead by example and use your courage, heart and strength to inspire others. Because as we all know it is so very needed in our world today. It is the few that choose to do it NOW that will create that tomorrow of a new life, a new leaf, a new time. I BELIEVE that is you.
