Jill Havens – Empower Network

Jill Havens

Jill Havens keeps a personal blog of book notes, network marketing moments, weight loss progress, and retail memories. She outlines Dale Carnegie principles from How to Win Friends and Influence People, such as avoiding arguments, respecting opinions, and admitting mistakes quickly, while urging readers to read the full book for fuller context. Another post recounts planning a Vemma presentation after her child cancelled, feeling betrayed yet proceeding when a higher-up skyped in, and watching most invitees skip the event despite the setup work. Weight loss updates celebrate ten pounds down in four weeks, longer treadmill runs, and a Vemma plan that alternates low and high carb days plus a freer day so the routine feels less rigid. Holiday writing recalls managing WalMart lawn and garden at Christmas, coworker John decorating with a scissor lift, and music-filled department displays that still spark warm memories. Categories include article marketing, recipes, blogging tips, and business opportunities. Tone is candid and diary-like, grounded in daily setbacks, small wins, and workplace nostalgia rather than polished corporate messaging.
