Isa-Adventure Team Brings Health, Wealth and Adventure to Isagenix
"Life is an adventure… do not die without one!" That's the philosophy that Kenyon of Colorado lives by. Even though his idea of an adventure is jumping out of an airplane, his risk-taking nature led him to discover Isagenix® and ultimately his greatest business adventure yet.
As a skydiving instructor and videographer, Kenyon has made over 2,000 skydives and 250 BASE jumps worldwide. When he's not jumping off mountains with a parachute, he's also an "adventure coach." He helps people to discover their true passion, conquer their fears and achieve their goals harnessing what he knows best — adventure.
While developing his adventure coaching business, Kenyon was introduced to Penny, an Isagenix Associate. She was persistent about him attending the upcoming 2008 "Commitment to Greatness" Celebration to learn more about Isagenix, but he wasn't sure what he was committing to. He had no knowledge of Isagenix, the products or even network marketing.
"I e-mailed Penny a few days before the event to tell her that I couldn't attend, but she just wouldn't give up on me," shares Kenyon. "She saw something in me and my future with Isagenix that I hadn't seen yet, but it piqued my curiosity."
True to his nature, Kenyon took a risk and attended the event to learn more. It wasn't until the last day that he had his own vision of not only what Isagenix could do for him, but also what he could do for Isagenix. That's when he developed the Isa-Adventure Team (I.A.T.) and its philosophy of health, wealth and adventure.
The concept of the Isa-Adventure Team is simple, according to Kenyon. People who enjoy adventure have to be vigilant about their health and stay in great shape. Healthy and happy people want to experience life, try new things and be adventurous. Adventurous people often don't have as much time or money as they'd like to invest in their passion.
"With Isagenix, people can create financial freedom to live the lifestyle they are passionate about without worrying where their next paycheck is coming from," says Kenyon, who refers to it as the ‘Passion Before Paycheck Principle.' "Adventurous people are inherently networkers by nature who believe in training, coaching and supporting others. Now they can connect with like-minded people who have the same passion for health and adventure and get paid for sharing it with others."
Kenyon is the prime example of what the Isagenix business opportunity can do for adventure seekers, hence his "Chief Adventure Officer" title. In only four months he's built a team of more than 30 people. He is on track to reach Star Consultant next month, Crystal Executive by Top Achievers and has attracted the attention of many other Isagenix teams with his health, wealth and adventure philosophy.
"I want to share adventure with as many people as I can within Isagenix and create the largest cross-team network of adventure seekers," explains Kenyon. "Just imagine if one day you could go into your Back Office, click on your city and find an activity that you can embark on with other people. It could be a bike ride, a day of surfing or even a Mt. Kilamanjaro training group."
Until then, Kenyon is focusing on building his Isa-Adventure Team, which includes climbers, scuba divers, snowboarders, skydivers, pilots and fellow BASE jumpers. While he tends to attract a young male audience, he's clear to point out that adventure is for anybody. His mother experienced great success with Isagenix and is starting her own I.A.T. senior indoor climbing group as part of the adventure team.
"We all need to learn to take the step toward ultimate health, wealth and adventure. The only way to do that is to simply go where you feel you can fly, where you can live and where you can experience the inner part of you," shares Kenyon. "For me that step is BASE jumping from a 1,500 cliff with nothing but one parachute to save me from imminent death. I have learned to use these fears and feelings as energy in my everyday life and business. It has helped me to succeed in many areas and it is clearly laying the foundation for my success with Isagenix."
