Before FreeLife, the Glazes life was difficult. "Debbie had always worked in the corporate world until her health brought her down the past three years," Doug was working from sunrise to sunset as a full time courier for Federal Express. "I would leave the house at 5:00am and not return home until 7:00pm, no matter what the weather," he said. "Packages needed to be delivered 'on time,' which was very stressful, especially when the weather was bad." There were also many occasions when Doug worked longer than 12 hours a day, and when most fathers were home with their families for the holidays, Doug was working, even on Christmas. "When my daughters were growing up, I missed out on many of their activites due to work" he recalled. "I didn't have the opportunity to work the hours I wanted, or to have the freedome I desired. I had no control over my schedule." And when Doug clocked out at the end of the day, he knew there would be no residual income offered for his efforts. "We were living paycheck to paycheck. We had stopped dreaming."
While Doug was working as a courier, he was not able to help at home while Debbie was in bed, so when they learned about Himalayan Goji Juice, their initial goal was to help Debbie impove her health. These new Royal Ambassadors did not even know there was an opportunity for a business as well, but they had always been attracted to Direct Sales due to the potential for residual income. It had been many years since they owned this type of business. Doug also knew there was no real security in his job and he had been searching for the chance to better himself in life.
"Weldon and Elaine Shirley introduced us to Himalayan Goji Juice and we couldn't believe the results Debbie had," Doug recalled. "We were eager to share with the world what a new person she was, and we jumped on the opportunity when it was offered to us through FreeLife International." Now, not only is Debbie up and out of bed, she is sharing Himalayan Goji Juice with everyone they meet! So after 19 long years of service, Doug turned in the keys to his truck and retired from Federal Express.
Doug and Debbie also credit Himalayan Goji Juice for healing their relationship with each other and their family. "It was below rock bottom," Doug said. "We had lost relationships with family and friends due to Debbie's health problems. But now everyone wants to hear about why she is doing so well! In turn, Himalayan Goji Juice has healed their financial ills, as well. Not only are they able to proide for their own family, they are able to provide for others, too. "We no longer worry about having enough money to buy groceries or about the electricity being turned off." Debbie said with a sigh of relief. "And we have plans to build the log home of our dreams." The Glazes also have more free time than ever before to spend with each other. "We have all the time in the world,: Debbie stated. "We can dow hat we want, when we want." But these parents aren't the only ones enjoying the fruits of their labor. Their two daughters, ages 19 and 20 are successful FreeLife Ambassadors in their own right.
Yes, Himalayan Goji Juice has certainly made an impact on this small family from Tennessee. "Our stress level is zilch!" declared Doug "We take the time to sit quietly and meditate on the peaceful life we now life. We hope to help others transform stress into strength by drinking Himalayan Goji Juice, too." As a courier, Doug was thanked for delivering packages on time, but he knew he really wasn't changing lives. "Now when we share Himalayan Goji Juice, people thank us for helping them feel better! What a rewarding feeling!"
Now that they have reached their goal of becoming Royal Ambassadors, Doug and Debbie have faith that they will continue to spread the good word of Himalayan Goji Juice. "The friends we've made and our team are what keeps us going with FreeLife," Debbie remarked. That and FreeLife's leadership. "Ray Faltinsky and Kevin Fournier have taught us to take the opportunity to build our team's self-esteem with positive words." Doug remarked.
Using those positive words, the Glazez plan to "continue up the ladder as Royals" and to help eah of their team members also qualify as Royal Ambassadors. "We want to make sure the world knows about Himalayan Goji Juice," Debbie stated. "We know that our goals and dreams are achievable because all we have to do is talk, share the secret, and drink Himalayan Goji Juice!" And that's exactly what they work on doing every day.
There is never a dull moment sharing Himalayan Goji Juice with people, Doug said. "Onc way we have fun with our team is by encouraging and helping them all to qualify for the incentive trips offered by FreeLife." While Doug and Dennie never had the opportunity 23 years ago to enjoy a honeymoon, they've had three with FreeLife!" They qualified for the last three Ambassador Retreats and enjoyed luxury accomidation in the Bahamas, Hawaii, and Cancun. "What amazing trips!" Doug exclaimed. "We are so happy we have been able to share them with our FreeLife Family!"
They don't use the word "family" lightly either. "We count our blessing each and every day for what theShireys have done for us," Debbie said. "We thank them for believing in us. And we thank the Lord and FreeLife International for the healthy and wealthy life we now live!"
