I grew up an athlete, playing sports my whole life and eventually going on to play volleyball in college. I was constantly in the gym throughout high school, training to be the best. I thought my body was stuck the way it looked no matter how much i worked out... which, by the way, never looked quite right to me. The summer before my senior volleyball season in college, God brought me an unexpected blessing - Landon Joseph Huesman. Being a single mom wasn’t easy, i was working 3 jobs to provide for him while my parents basically raised him... not to mention the baby weight was NOT coming off. I was so self conscious and upset. Fast forward after losing some weight, gaining some energy and finding myself & my self confidence... something (i swear it was an angel) made me text my managers and put in my 2 weeks at work so i could start a business that i knew literally nothing about (except how good i felt from using the products).

A few months down the road, God brought Darryll into my life. Eventually we moved into an apartment together and he joined the business as well. From there, we started planning on opening a storefront. In August 2019, the plan came to life and we now are owners of Prana Nutrition in Olathe, KS. My life has completely turned around and I’m so thankful for how far i have come as a person, business owner and mom.

I started my meal plan in August of 2018 with my mom. When i started off, i was using the products here and there... not too consistently but still using them. 2 months had passed and my mom and i decided if we’re going to be buying them we might as well use them the right way. So we did. I started feeling so much better. My coach had heard me talking about problems at either of my jobs, and told me that he’d show me how to have a business and work for myself, just getting paid for telling people about the products and helping people get healthy just like i did, which i was already doing anyway. After ignoring it for a couple times, i finally gave in. I didn’t care how much it cost (it wasn’t that much anyway), i was IN. I knew i felt good and i wanted everyone else to feel the same way. My mom was my first client (shout-out to mom lol) and then a couple of my friends as well. When i saw my first check i thought, omg... this is REAL! I’m getting paid to help people get healthy?! What a dream. I just grew and grew in the business, while getting healthier and healthier myself.
By that time, i had felt comfortable enough to get back into the gym. So i got a gym membership with a daycare, and started going every day. I felt SO GOOD. (Life hack: better results you have, the more people are going to trust you to help them. Be a product of the product!) i started gaining my muscle back, and using the athlete line. I can’t believe my body was starting to look how i wanted it to look as a high school/college athlete!! I’ve always aimed to be fit over skinny... and that’s exactly what was happening for me.

In February 2019, i went to my first ever business training. It was a nutrition club training in Oklahoma City, OK. I didn’t really know many people going, but i went anyway, and i was excited! I had been working in a nutrition club for a month or two by then... but i always thought you had to have certain prerequisites to own one. However, when i heard the speaker talking about how to have a nutrition club, i thought, I. WANT. ONE. At that time, i knew nothing about manifestation, but that is what i was doing. I started thinking that I’d have a club one day. When Darryll and i moved in together and he came to Dallas on a business trip with me, he told me he wanted to join the business. He was eager to learn more, so i taught him everything i knew! Shortly after, we talked about owning a nutrition club. We spent HOURS ON HOURS driving around Kansas City and KC metro looking for spaces for lease and calling landlord after landlord. Some nights we were out from 7 pm to 11 pm looking and poor Landon would just fall asleep in the car. We were so determined to get our perfect space. But just when we thought we had found a space we liked, we found out there was already Prana Nutrition about a block away. We were sad because we had spent all summer looking for a space and just wanted to be done. But a couple nights later, our coach called us and informed us that Prana was actually available for lease. It was a long shot, but we thought we’d try anyway. At that point, what did we have to lose?
After speaking with the owner at the time, he said someone else has already applied but he’d send our application in just in case. Days that felt like weeks went by as each update started with “can’t promise anything...” or “isn’t looking good...” but ended with “keep your head up” and “keep praying”. And that’s exactly what we did. We had so many people praying that this would be OUR space. By that time, we were pros at manifestation, and good thing because IT WORKED! 10 days after we sent in our application, we got the call. “It didn’t work out with the other applicants. Prana Nutrition is yours!” I CRIED. Then i thanked God. Then i cried again. We finally got our space!!
We only had 3 days to get settled. We had a lot we wanted to change, and we were determined to get it done before Monday. Waking up early after staying there till 2 am seemed like nothing when we had our minds set.
Months later, business is amazing, we’ve impacted SO many lives, and had our lives impacted even more than you could imagine. We’ve met some amazing new friends, we get to spend all of our time with our son and make the city of Olathe a happier and healthier place. I wouldn’t trade this life for the world. Now, we get to help people through the same process, showing them how they can take control of their life, their time/financials, and be their own boss while improving others’ lives. It’s such a beautiful thing and I’m so blessed that my family and i get to be apart of this.

I’ve done all kinds of diets, including restricting my calories by so much that i wasn’t allowed to work out. It wasn’t sustainable at all, and i had so much trouble sticking to my diet. Any time I’d “cheat”, I’d gain weight. It was so frustrating!!! So when i found herbalife and i was told i needed to eat MORE to lose weight, I was confused but i did it anyway. To my surprise it actually worked. How, though? Yeah I was eating more, but more of the good things.
I was eating lots of protein to meet my daily protein goal, which was helping me build lean muscle so my body could burn more calories each day, even while i was resting. By increasing my protein, i felt fuller too, which kept me from overeating. I also was eating more frequently (shake, snack, meal, snack, shake) so my body got used to being fed every couple hours. This helped boost my metabolism. Overall, i had more energy, was losing fat and started naturally toning up even before i had gone to the gym.
I’ve been working out for over a year now and haven’t gotten “bulky”, which is most women’s fear when it comes to high protein. For men, you can use the products to either lean out or bulk, whatever your goals may be.
