Samantha and I have been part of the Mary Kay family for nearly three and a half years now. She attends her weekly success meetings and brings back tidbits of Mary Kay philosophy, blurbs and sayings the Mary Kay consultants use and pass on to motivate themselves to greatness. Many of these ideas have found their way onto the pages of my blog because they ring true to me, echoing my own beliefs about how to treat people and how to treat yourself.
Just recently I wrote a blog on faking it until it is real - that is straight from Mary Kay. Mary Kay also teaches that it is none of your business what people think of you. The debt free, privately owned, $5 billion corporation is founded on the precepts God first, Family second, Career third, putting the emphasis on what is important on life before anything. What other multinational company could say such a thing and get away with it?



Samantha has had many milestones along the path. This week, she has earned her biggest one yet - the legendary free car. No, not the pink one yet, that is still a little further down the path. Soon, you will see us driving everywhere in a free Mary Kay Chevy Malibu (known as the “boo” in their unit meetings). We could have taken the cash option of $375 a month, but prefer the outwardly visible sign of the fruits of Samantha’s hard work. I can’t wait. This is going to be sooooooooo much fun.
Samantha could not have done this alone. Mary Kay believes in a team effort, and without Samantha’s Rockstars (the name of her future unit), this would not have been possible. I have to thank them for the opportunity to work with such classy, hardworking, and self-confident women. We never would have gotten to this point with out them. They truly are Rockstars! I can’t wait to celebrate each and every one of them as they work to earn their own free cars.
Down the road is hard work, but there is also reward. I am excited to help Samantha achieve her next milestone - directorship - which leads us closer to financial freedom. I am also excited about the next two levels of car - Toyota Camry/Chevy Equinox and the Pink Cadillac CTS or SRX. I am excited about everything Mary Kay has to bring us. I am excited to see Samantha achieve and grow as a person, a woman, and a wife. I am excited that an opportunity like this even exists. Thank you Mary Kay and thank you Samantha for being the smartest woman I know.
Frank and Samantha, a great read. Thank you for your heart and passion. You are both such a great couple and wonderful to work with. It's a great day for Mary Kay Inc. to have Samantha has a car driver and Leader in our company. We are blessed doubly because of you both.
