I've Got Your Back

Sixteen Years with Arbonne: How It All Began - with Meg McLean


Listen Later

Hey pal, and welcome back to I’ve Got Your Back the podcast.

This week’s episode is a special one. I'm taking you right back to where it all began - my journey with Arbonne. It’s been sixteen years since I first said yes, and I honestly can’t believe it!!

To help me mark the moment, I asked my dear friend Meg McLean put me in the hot seat. It felt only right - she was the one who first reached out to me about the business all those years ago.

We also recorded this one in a real-life studio for the first time, which made it all the more special. Huge thanks to Mark Edwards at @flatwhitemusic for making us feel so welcome and at ease!

We cover a lot in this episode. The early days. The doubts. The desire. The handwritten vision boards. We talk about what made me say yes, why I kept going, and what this business has taught me - not just about leadership and consistency, but about people, purpose, and trust.

Inside, we explore:

  • How a chance message turned into a sixteen-year career
  • Why saying yes came down to a gut feeling I couldn’t ignore
  • Building a business before social media was really a thing
  • What happened when people doubted me - and why that pushed me further
  • The decision to treat Arbonne like a business (not just a hobby)
  • Building in seasons - and learning to lead through the tough ones
  • The retreat that brought everything full circle
  • What it means to create something that genuinely puts people first

This episode is an honest look behind the scenes - not just of a business, but of a life shaped by the decision to say yes before I knew what that yes really meant!
