"My goal has always remained the same
– to help people start dreaming again."

*******

When she started her Mary Kay business 25 years ago, Donna's goal was to earn an extra $50 a week. After all, she was busy raising a family, teaching kindergarten and working as a rodeo judge. She didn't even wear makeup! Donna did question how she was going to sell the product, but the thought of earning extra money was a powerful motivator. With her husband, Leslie's, support she began travelling the path to success.

And the woman who started small finished big. As she joined the elite Independent National Sales Director sisterhood, Donna is grateful she listened to her heart and pursued her dream. For Donna, it's all about her personal life lesson – facing her fears, surrounding herself with positive people and visualizing success. And it works. After all, how many people can say they still love their careers after 25 years?

Now, Donna wants to share those lessons with her National Area. She says, "My goal has always remained the same – to help people start dreaming again."
 
 
Donna and I were Directors together in Anne Newbury's area in the 1980's. We became friends while attending Anne's Retreats, workshops, and Seminar events. Being from the Maritimes, we had a natural bond. 

I am so happy that Donna has joined us for our celebration, since our friendship spans the entire twenty years that our Area has existed. Donna knows this business and is a wonderful teacher. If you are offered to attend a class taught by Donna, you will learn much.
