Local business owner completes training

Isagenix Independent Associate Terry Probst of Caledon, recently completed three days of product and business training at Isagenix's annual convention in Las Vegas Aug. 20-22. Some 3,000 Isagenix associates from around the world attended.

One of the highlights of the convention, dubbed a Celebration, was the honoring of 20 individuals who had lost 100 or more pounds by following the Isagenix program. The event also featured presentations by bestselling authors Jack Canfield (Chicken Soup for the Soul) and John Gray (Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus), as well as training sessions on cleansing and nutrition, the company's IsaDermix skin care system, and new Web marketing tools.

"The conference really reinforced for me how I can help people to make a huge impact on their lives with these products. Cleansing toxins out of the body and giving the body what it needs to become the miracle it was meant to be can make a big difference in how one feels," said Probst, who was recognized at the event for earning the title of Crystal Executive, which means she has helped many people meet their health and weight goals.
