Listen Later

Welcome to the first episode of the Pam Sowder Podcast, with your host, Pam Sowder! Pam has over 2 decades of field and corporate experience and was voted one of the most influential women in direct selling. She helps match the daily needs of distributors to everyday life challenges.

In the year 1994, Pam knew she needed to get a job that suited her lifestyle as a stay-at-home mother. But what spare-time or part-time job could allow for the flexibility she craved? Join Pam on this episode as she takes us through her dream turned-reality — from conception, to execution, through persevering, and achieving. She maintains that if she can do this, you can too — and she'll help you along that journey.

"It's time to get over yourself, fire up your productivity, work less and live more."

— Pam Sowder
