Christine Abad, a 45-year-old Filipina living in Spain, embodies the power of resilience and reinvention. Her journey from humble beginnings to a thriving career in Network Marketing showcases the transformative impact of determination, personal growth, and a supportive community.
From Domestic Work to New Horizons
Christine’s early career as a domestic worker reflected her dedication to caring for others. However, she longed for a path that offered greater independence and a deeper sense of purpose. This yearning inspired her to explore new opportunities, eventually leading her to Network Marketing—a decision that would redefine her life and future.
A Leap of Faith
Although she holds a nursing degree earned in Germany, Christine found the demanding hospital environment misaligned with her personal aspirations for freedom and fulfillment. Instead, she spent over two decades as a housekeeper and nanny, often separated from her family in The Philippines.
Her life took an exciting turn when she entered the private yachting industry. This opportunity allowed her to travel the world while using her skills as a crew nurse, housekeeper, and nanny. Her multilingual abilities became a valuable asset in this global, fast-paced environment.
Motherhood and a New Direction
Motherhood was a transformative milestone for Christine, bringing immense joy but also presenting new challenges. While raising her son, Noah, she began to reevaluate her career and seek meaningful ways to contribute to her family’s well-being. During this period, her sister introduced her to USANA and the world of Network Marketing.
Initially uncertain about starting a business due to self-doubt and a lack of experience, Christine was drawn to USANA’s science-backed products and the inspiring success stories of others. With encouragement, she began attending training sessions, conventions, and personal development programs that sparked her entrepreneurial spirit.
Overcoming Challenges and Building Resilience
Christine’s journey in Network Marketing wasn’t without challenges. The early years tested her patience and determination, with periods of setbacks and the task of building a team from scratch, showing the importance of consistent effort.
“Like any other business, I’ve faced setbacks—two years without consistent income or new partners. Despite these challenges, the unwavering support from the USANA community has been incredible. I’ve learned that success is possible with the right guidance and perseverance,” she shared.
Her resilience paid off as she began to see growth—not only in her business but also in her personal development and confidence, reflecting her continued efforts, perseverance, and commitment to learning.
Core Values Guiding Success
Christine’s success is rooted in her core values: health, family, curiosity, and growth. She prioritizes physical and mental well-being, recognizing these as the foundation of a fulfilling life. Her family remains at the heart of her motivation, driving her to build a life of balance and love. Curiosity fuels her constant pursuit of knowledge and new opportunities, while her commitment to personal growth ensures she strives for excellence and improvement.
USANA, the company she represents, aligns perfectly with these values. The company’s commitment to scientific research and high-quality products resonates with her dedication to promoting health and wellness. The supportive community within USANA reflects her focus on family and personal connections.
Commitment to Health and Wellness
Christine has noticed positive changes in her overall wellness and energy levels, empowering her to excel as a mother and business owner. She credits her success to a holistic approach to health, which includes balanced nutrition, quality sleep, regular exercise, stress management, and USANA supplementation. Similarly, her son Noah has benefited from the family’s healthy lifestyle habits, with improvements in his skin health. One thing to note, however, is that Christine always emphasizes that these products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or illness and may work differently for different individuals.
Christine takes pride in sharing Dr. Wentz’s (USANA’s Founder) vision of encouraging families to prioritize health. The supportive community within USANA continues to inspire her to promote wellness and personal empowerment.
A Supportive Community
One of Christine’s most treasured aspects of her journey is the sense of belonging within the USANA community. This supportive network has been a source of encouragement during challenging times.
Based in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, USANA, The Cellular Nutrition Company, is a global leader in health and wellness. It empowers individuals to improve their health, build successful businesses, and positively impact others through science-backed products and a thriving community.
Christine credits the camaraderie within USANA for giving her the strength to persevere. “The sense of belonging in this community is priceless,” she shared.
“It’s more than just a business—it’s a family.”
A Legacy of Empowerment
Christine’s vision transcends personal success. Her dream is to reunite her family by bringing her husband home from working abroad—a journey they once shared before her pregnancy. She is focused on creating a life filled with health, happiness, and love while transforming their financial future for Noah and generations to come.
Her ultimate goal is to build a legacy that empowers others to pursue their dreams, demonstrating how hard work and resilience can lead to lasting success.
For aspiring mompreneurs and entrepreneurs, Christine offers this advice: “Explore new opportunities, stay curious, and learn from those who have succeeded. Challenges will come, but with resilience and determination, you can create a fulfilling life.”
Christine Abad’s story is a testament to the transformative potential of Network Marketing. Her journey highlights the power of perseverance, personal growth, and the unwavering human spirit to overcome challenges and achieve meaningful success.
