An interview with Maxandra Desrosiers

We're excited to introduce our new recognition article series, MANA (a Fijian description of power and achievement). Each article features an interview with an Ambassador who has achieved the rank of Sapphire or higher. 

Her story is filled with unwavering faith and determination. Born and raised in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Florida-based, Maxandra’s life changed after the tragic death of her brothers. Homeless at age 16, Maxandra was forced to work several jobs to pay for schooling and provide for herself.  Being challenged at such a young age was extremely difficult, however, Maxandra’s tragic life experiences helped build her character and has shaped who she is today.  At 17 years of age, after hearing Tony Robbins speak, Maxandra decided not to focus on the losses she experienced, but to learn from those experiences and take her future into her own hands. Her story proves that even under the harshest circumstances, you can come out even stronger and change your own destiny. Click to read more...

I received a crash course in life at a very early age when my brothers were murdered. At 16 years old I was homeless. I worked throughout the day, went to school and worked jobs at night just so I can pay for classes and provide for myself. When I was 17 years old, I attended an Anthony Robbins seminar, and it was an experience that changed my life.

From that day, I realized that I could be anything I wanted to be so I started to take action. After learning and working in the Mortgage Business for several years, I decided to open my own company. We did extremely well, however, I was working 14 to 16 hours or more a day. My work became my life and I felt physically, mentally and emotionally drained.  It took losing my Father to make the decision to create time freedom, especially for those I love, and that is what led me to join the network marketing industry. Low overhead, low startup cost, no employees, less stress!
​

To be successful in Network Marketing I believe you must care about the people that are in the field. Having your customers and reps best interest at heart is key. I know from experience that our Co-Founder Todd Smith and President Bill Andreoli live and stand by that.  The Wakaya Perfection products are amazing. I love that our wellness products can be used both inside and out and that they are pure, organic and potent. The business opportunity, the system, and the leadership team are incredible. With everything we have in place everyone can and will win.
​

My life goal is to help others transform their lives through my own life experiences. I believe Network Marketing is the platform that is allowing me to do just that. To show others that they too have the potential to be, to have and to achieve anything they want.  I give great thanks to my entire team for believing in me, for loving me, for being on this journey with me. I feel a great deal of love and gratitude for our Corporate staff, our customer service staff, Bill, Todd, Mike Randolph, Andre, Barb, Dave and Blake. Without all of them none of this would ever be possible. I love you all! ​
