Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Dubuque, Iowa
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: Reliv Now® with Soy, Innergize®, Arthaffect®, ProVantage® and LunaRich X™ when needed.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom and raise our children with our faith and values. After our second was born, I joined as a Master Affiliate because I not only wanted the best price for our family, but also because I wanted to give hope to those who are looking for better health and business opportunities. What I love about my business is that I can do this with my family! Reliv is the best nutrition around and gives people the hope they have been searching for.
Q: What results have you seen?
A: I have experienced an increase in energy and improved joint health. I also used Reliv for prenatal support, stress relief, and muscle recovery.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: I am able to be home with my kids and run around day in and day out! I have the energy to keep up with my two kids, who are 1 and 3, as well as my 1-year-old nephew. They keep me on my toes and I have no limitations on what we can do! We regularly hike, bike, swim, run, etc.
Q: What do you do that helps you grow your Reliv business?
A: I regularly use a planner and dedicate time to Reliv. I do this business part time, and when I stay consistent with my planner and provide great customer service, I really see how the income flows. It’s all about being intentional.
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: People are always sharing how they feel and how they need help. When talking with friends and acquaintances, I let them know that I have something that may help them with their concerns. Sending videos and sharing our daily call opportunities is beneficial. Really showing them compassion and giving them hope shows them that I truly care.
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Work closely with your up line and make the most of support systems! They are amazing and will be so useful throughout your journey. Keep track of everything you do, stay organized, and consistent. Remember: a “no” today is not always a “no” tomorrow. Stay positive!
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: My goal is to be able to help my family more financially. Help to pay our mortgage each month is a start. When I achieve that goal, then I want to be able to pay all bills for the month. After I achieve that goal, I want to be able to put my children into private schooling.
Reliv Director Carmen Norkiewicz
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Clinton Township, Michigan
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: I love my shakes and look forward to them! I include many Reliv products in my daily shakes including Reliv Now®, Reliv Now® for Kids, LunaRich X™, Arthaffect®, ProVantage®, Active, Burn, FibRestore®, Innergize®, ReversAge®, 24K®, CardioSentials® and GlucAffect®. I also enjoy using RLV Hemp + Melatonin, RLV Hemp Full Spectrum 750, and RLV Hemp Balm.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: Two years ago, I said “no” to my friend when she originally approached me to try Reliv products. In May 2020, out of desperation from physical discomfort in my back, I decided to try RLV Hemp + Melatonin, which allowed me to get the improved sleep I needed to heal. Wow! I was excited about the results, which convinced me about the benefits of Reliv, and so I began incorporating more products into my life. I entered in at the top profit level so I could purchase products at the best price point.
Q: What results have you seen?
A: RLV Hemp + Melatonin 500mg has helped to reduce the discomfort in my back and feet. It enabled me to bend more freely after a few months of use, which has helped me increase the flexibility in my back. I am sleeping better, and wake up refreshed with more energy. My brain fog has disappeared and I enjoy greater mental clarity. My sinuses have improved.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: I am walking and exercising more often because I feel better and have more energy. The business aspect has provided me with a supplemental income to bolster my fixed retirement income. I love it!
Q: What do you do that helps grow your Reliv business?
A: Sharing my story, along with the other amazing stories available to us via various avenues of live and recorded calls helps me to reach out to new people. I regularly connect customers with my upline and people who have had inspiring results. It’s so easy to share the videos on our Reliv app, which makes sharing information with customers so very easy!
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: I tell them that I have found the key to nutritional health that has given me amazing results and a new lease on life!
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: I have learned so much from so many Reliv mentors. Mindy Jones says, “Don’t get attached to the outcome!” My upline mentor, Cindy Grabowski, encourages me to, “Meet the customer where he or she is at this moment.” Pam Thielen’s words also inspire me: “Small victories add up to big victories.” Whether the victory is a healthy weight loss, a new customer, or a new insight gained, each small victory cements the foundation of our success.
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: I currently have one Quick Start client, one Master Affiliate, and two retail customers who purchase directly from me. My next goal is to sign up my two retail customers as Preferred Autoship Customers and pick up a few more Quick Starts. I am working to build a solid base.
Reliv Director Laura Steiner
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Ridgecrest, California
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: I take Reliv Now®, Innergize®, and FibRestore®.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: I knew Reliv could rebuild my body cell by cell and I knew I needed the best. I knew it would help me from the stories of others it had already helped. Reliv doesn’t let you down.
Q: What results have you seen?
A: I have experienced improved brain performance including recall, memory, and the ability to multitask well. I have better balance, energy, and sleep. My seasonal allergies have improved, and I have seen benefits with my vision. The discomfort in my joints has improved, which is a great benefit.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: Reliv has made some of my health problems tolerable. I can think better at work and learn a new job that is high stress to finish out my career in project management at a senior level. Prior to Reliv, I couldn’t imagine living this way for very long. Now, I feel normal again.
Q: What do you do that helps you grow your Reliv business?
A: I listen to what is going on around me and I focus on their issue and how Reliv can help them. It’s about them, not you.
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: Reliv is the best nutritional supplement you can consume. It’s a perfect balance of everything your body needs in a form your body can easily absorb, making it highly effective.
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Use your up line until you are confident. Plug into the system (zoom calls in today’s world) and use it to build your distribution network! By using the system, it will duplicate and build you a distribution network that will continue for the rest of your life.
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: I want to advance to Key Director.
Reliv Director Karen Zea
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Lake Shore, Utah
Q: In addition to Reliv what are your other gigs?
A: I am a homeschooling mom of 22 years. In my former life, before homeschooling, I was a labor and delivery nurse. I have been on a natural healing path for the last 20 years. Six years ago, we moved to a small farm with goats that we milk, chickens, and rabbits. Life is beautiful!
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: I am currently drinking three shakes per day that include Reliv Classic®, ProVantage®, Arthaffect®, FibRestore®. I also make “Arthaffect tea” with 1 scoop in warm water with some Innergize! Lower Sugar.

A: I chose Reliv because I was praying for answers to my health problems, and this was God’s answer. Reliv works! I heard the stories and knew I would have results if I would make the commitment.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: I love the positive people and positive principles that I hear in business training. It helps me improve all aspects of my life.
Q: What do you do that helps you grow your Reliv business?
A: I pray for inspiration to touch the people in most need of Reliv. Then I write down the names that come to my mind and contact them. I try to share with someone new every day. My job is to share! I can’t make their decisions for them, but I can show them how much I care and what it has done for me and others.
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: I tell others I have something that can help them! As a nurse, it is important to me that Reliv products have patents and scientific studies. And there is no risk to try it. It is guaranteed. Then I share stories; they are the most powerful.
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Don’t pay attention to the overnight success stories. Be consistent, and be you, and the business will grow.
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: My next goal is a solid 2000PV for my personal group each month. I want to build a business that will continue to grow, and I need a strong personal group. That means I am focusing on Promo 1-2-3 every day.
Lera Hobbes
1st place in Top 3 for February 2021
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Edmond, Oklahoma
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: I take Reliv Classic®, Innergize®, and FibRestore® (the Mighty 3) as well as CardioSentials® and LunaRich X™.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: I chose Reliv first and foremost because early on I saw the culture of Reliv was people helping people. Having been in the ministry all my life, that is that meant a lot to me! Then, of course, I saw the unequaled science that backed up the products. It gave me the confidence to share with those I care about the most.
Q: What results have you seen?
A: My allergies are under control and I can support healthy blood sugar levels. With LunaRich X™, I am able to support healthy cholesterol levels. I have the energy to last the day (and then some)!
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: Oh, my goodness! My whole family and all in-laws take Reliv! We have enjoyed the blessings of meeting any health challenge with the Reliv products! Reliv has given me a way to minister to people on so many levels. I would not have been able to stay at home and homeschool our children and be as active in the ministry were it not for the Reliv income!
Q: What do you do that helps you grow your Reliv business?
A: I listen to people. I smile at strangers (even with a mask on!). I give my time to Distributors and customers and give the best service I can. I am always making lists of people that I think about or happen to meet along the way. Then I tackle first what I’m most afraid of: those people on my chicken list. I call them first! It really sets the tone for the rest of my day! It’s easier from then on!
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: It depends on with whom I’m speaking. I share my story; I talk about the sound science behind the products; the generous compensation plan especially for those who need even a little extra income; sometimes the Reliv Kalogris Foundation and what I’ve seen them do. It depends on the person’s interest.
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Ride on the strength, experience, and conviction of your upline. I earned an income even before my wall of belief was sturdy because I had mentors who led in the appointments, gave the presentations, and helped me with follow-up. Be a good listener first and foremost.
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: Help those in my organization to reach their goals. I truly believe what Bob Montgomery says about helping those reaching their goals will lead to you reaching yours.
Julia & Benjamin Murray
2nd in Top 3 for February 2021
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: We live in San Leandro, California not far from beautiful San Francisco.
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: Oh, that is easy. My go-to products on a consistent basis are Reliv Now®, FibRestore®, 24K® and, LunaRich X™. At night, my best friend (next to my husband) is ReversAge®. From time-to-time, I add Innergize®, Active, and Purify.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: When I was first introduced to Reliv, it was the products and the science that caught my eye. I was not necessarily interested in the business aspect. I was working a full-time career in corporate America, had two special needs boys, there was no way I wanted to put more on my plate. But the health results that my family received opened my eyes to the business opportunity. I had to allow the teaching and mentoring of my helpful upline to really take hold of me and transform my thinking. It was, without a doubt, the best decision we made four years ago.
Q: What results have you seen?
A: When I first started on Reliv products four years ago, things that really stood out were my appetite for sweet and salty things quieted down. I started sleeping like a baby and waking up feeling refreshed. My girlfriends told me that my skin had a refreshed glow. I no longer had to blow my nose in the morning to breathe, and my sinuses were clear.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: First and foremost, it is personal growth. I feel like I have grown by leaps and bounds. I love the fact that Reliv gives you all the tools to personalize your business. You work it the way that fits your style. Our Northern California team is creative, innovative, and incredibly supportive. As a team, we care about each other and go that extra mile for one another. This builds unity and trust. Secondly, I have found that I push myself to not be afraid to try new ways to reach prospects. I love all the training and conference calls that help support me in my business. I glean a lot of how-to from other distributors and think, “I can do that!” which motivates me to stretch my thinking and sometimes even change the way I approach situations.
Q: What do you do that helps grow your Reliv business?
A: One of the main things that I have learned from my upline is to listen. Once you get people engaged in conversation they usually talk about their health or finances. Because the pandemic has limited my ability to meet people personally, I have been using Facebook groups. It is a platform people use to talk about their concerns, pain, and hope. I take the time to be compassionate towards their individual situations. It takes time for doors to open this way, but it is worth it. I have built some really cool relationships that I can call my friends although we have only met briefly on Facebook.
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: I am learning to say, “I have a business based on products that have changed my family’s health, you have to see what I am doing!” I love talking about the humanitarian arm of Reliv—the Reliv Kalogris Foundation and how we as distributors get the privilege of feeding malnourished children around the world with the best nutrition in the world!
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Listen to your upline. Follow their lead. Do not recreate the wheel; it is not necessary. Plug into the Reliv system. It has been tested and shown to be successful. Let go of preconceived notions. Have a teachable heart. You will be amazed at how your business will grow!
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: Our next goal is to advance to Senior Director. Ben and I look forward to building our business consistently, by working with our upline and our team to make our dreams and their dreams a reality. Having the opportunity to change individuals’ lives one person at a time just makes my heart happy to be a part of an amazing company.
Miriam Wolf
3rd in Top 3 for February 2021
Q: What’s your hometown?
A: Beaverton, Oregon
Q: What is your Reliv regimen?
A: Reliv Now®, Innergize®, and FibRestore®, SoySentials®, LunaRich X™.
Q: Why did you choose Reliv?
A: There are so many wonderful reasons I choose Reliv: it’s a solid company with exciting research and development. The community of Distributors that Reliv provides is unmatched. Every single person you meet is friendly, supportive, helpful, and cheering you on – no matter if they’re connected to you or not; I haven’t seen that anywhere else!
Q: What results have you seen?
A: I’ve seen results with irregular cycles, clearer skin (avoiding hormonal acne breakouts), and even skin coloring: I call it the “Reliv glow!” I’ve also used Reliv nutrition as my primary prenatal supplement during two pregnancies. My two young children have benefited from Reliv nutrition from the womb and are super healthy! Unlike their young friends, I know they have strong immune systems.
Q: How has Reliv had a positive impact on your life?
A: Reliv nutrition has given me a higher quality of life from a young age and the health benefits have evolved with me through changing seasons of life, from my teen years to my early 30s. Reliv has also changed the way I think about health and wellness. As a critical care RN, it is incredibly refreshing to focus on wellness through Reliv nutrition and to share hope with people in a different way than a strictly medical approach.
Q: What do you do that helps grow your Reliv business?
A: As a mom of a baby and a toddler, there is rarely a “perfect time” to work on my Reliv business. I have stopped waiting for perfection and started to focus on what it really means to work Reliv into the “cracks of your life.” Consistently doing a little bit goes a lot further than inconsistent sprints!
Q: What do you tell others about Reliv?
A: Lately, I have approached friends about Reliv with an emphasis on supporting the immune system, since it’s something that everybody is more conscious of lately. I tell them that Reliv provides optimal nutrition in a safe and comprehensive way, and I’ll plug them into stories to validate the real results it brings.
Q: What is your advice for a new Distributor?
A: Success in the Reliv business does not come by flying solo. Link arms with your sponsor and team and plug into the many resources in the Reliv success system!
Q: What is your next goal for your Reliv business?
A: I want to advance to Key Director!
