Avon Virtual Try On

Can We Trust Even When Life Feels Scary?

I used to think that if I planned well enough, I could keep my life safe and steady. I thought being in control was the same as being happy. Life doesn’t always follow our plans. Lately, my world has felt like a storm. Between the deaths of five people, my son’s transition after prison, and my sister’s diagnosis with breast cancer, the ground has felt very shaky. I’ve learned that when the world is chaotic, I can’t control what happens outside. Instead, I am continuing on my journey as the “architect” of my own heart.

When things feel overwhelming, we often find ourselves in a knot of Thoughts, Emotions, and Actions (T.E.A.). Our thoughts try to anticipate the “what-ifs,” emotions feel heavy, and actions become frantic as we try to fix things we cannot control. Being an architect isn’t about stopping the storm. It’s about building a strong, safe house inside ourselves so we can stay standing while the wind blows. 

I can’t change a medical diagnosis or a legal situation; however, I can choose how I show up for myself and the people I love.

Trusting isn’t about knowing exactly how things will turn out. It’s about knowing that I have the strength to handle whatever happens next. It’s about being kind to myself, setting boundaries that protect my heart, and finding peace in the middle of the mess.

It is why I wrote my 4-week course.  If you are going through a hard season and feel like you’re losing your footing, I want to help. My T.E.A. Course is a place to learn to untangle our thoughts, emotions, and actions to find your calm again. I’d love for you to join the healing journey.

Two weeks ago my blog was about how my business has changed and grown. Last week featured Avon’s “Virtual Try-on” tool to help you pick out products that bring out your best. The combination of these blogs made me think about my career with Avon, and why we are such a good match.

 Here’s what I mean.

If you’ve read my story, you’ll remember that I started my Avon business 15 years ago because I needed the money. I chose Avon based on good products and 120 years in the business at that time. But my main motive was to bring in additional funds to support my family.

I love the VirtualTry-on tool for the convenience. You can use it from your home any time of the day or evening (as opposed to department store hours). It also saves time and money because it eliminates purchasing products that aren’t quite right. And there’s another feature.

It’s safe to use, especially during this pandemic. Before Covid, I didn’t consult with department store cosmetic reps. I don’t know if face-to-face consultations are currently being offered…and how do you work around a mask? (If anyone has information about this, please let me know here.)

The Virtual Try-on tool is a good example of where Avon finds a way to see how lipsticks, blushes, foundations (and more) affect your look (with a full face option coming soon)…no matter what’s going on in the world. That alone is enough to try it out. But like my business, I think Avon changes and grows so we can show our outside best any time. That leads to grateful clients!

As always, click here if you want to contact me. Or simply click on the VirtualTry-on tool to check it out on your own. And when you do, let me know what you think. I value your opinion and look forward to hearing about your experience with it.
