So, who am I? Decided you needed to know who you are reading about. My name is Charyl Hann Armstrong. I was born and grew up in San Diego, CA. Graduated from San Diego High School in 1967. See, I am close to retirement age. It will be here before I know it. Tho I am really planning on retiring from my J-O-B as soon as possible. Now that I have started Empower Network I feel that is a real possibility.
After high school I attended San Diego State University, earning my BA in Accounting. Passed the CPA exam and worked accounting jobs until I became a full time stay at home mom.
This is where the Mom 8 comes in. Over the years I became Mom to 8 kids, 4 by birth and 4 by adoption. After Dennis and I got married I added 4 step kids. So really I have 12 kids ages 20 to 44. I love being a mom. BUT I really LOVE being a grandma. At the moment we have 15 grandkids, ages 1 ½ to 17, and we aren’t even close to being finished. The picture above is a small fraction of the family at Thanksgiving this year.
Back to work. I worked accounting jobs off and on over the years until I got involved in the mental health field. Some of my adopted kids struggle with mental illness. I got involved with NAMI (National Alliance for Mental Illness), am on the board and teach a few of their classes. At the moment my J-O-B is in the Independent Living Field. I am an IL Advocate for youth. I attend a lot of IEP meetings advocating for the kids with disabilities to have all the modifications and accommodations they deserve. It’s an OK job if a person has to work – but – I want my time back. I want to have the freedom to do the things I want to on a daily basis.
Over the years I have been in Network Marketing. Sold needlework, skin care and vitamins. Nothing really jelled so quit. Felt like I sucked at it. I knew the model worked but just couldn’t get it to work for me. This time everything feels different. I finally have hope that this will work. Good company, awesome comp plan – who can beat 100% commissions, and fantastic support. I am going to make this work!!!
So what else would you want to know about me. I love to travel, take pixs and write. What better program than one that requires me to write a blog every day.
Like I said before I love being a mom and grandma and one of the biggest reasons I want to retire from my J-O-B is so that I can be an active part in my grandkids lives. Every day I am missing things in their lives. Before I know it they will be grown and having families of their own. They are only going to be young once. Family is a huge priority for me.
I don’t know where you are in your life right now but if you are like me and want a shot at freedom be sure to check out Empower Network. It is what it says and people are making tons of money with it. If you do the 8 core steps you can’t help but succeed. Check it out – I am sure you will be impressed.
Have an awesome day.
Charyl
