马来西亚新一代女性领导者

一位母亲、企业家与绿色愿景践行者的励志故事
在槟城充满活力的创业环境中,一位女性正用行动证明:领导力可以源于热情、使命感以及对家庭价值的坚守。40岁的她,从结构严谨的医药行业走出,成长为绿色商业运动中崛起最快的领导者之一,走出了一段令人瞩目的非凡旅程。
作为一位妻子和三个年幼男孩的母亲,她代表着新一代女性的形象——在家庭与事业之间取得平衡,同时怀抱雄心、愿景,以及为社会带来真正影响的坚定信念。
在投身创业之前,Rachel Lau 毕业于马来亚大学(University of Malaya),主修生物健康科学。2008年,她在大众银行(Public Bank)销售团队开启了自己的职业生涯。一年半后,她转入 Mount Miriam 癌症医院,从事业务发展工作。
随后,她在医药行业深耕14年,从事医疗销售工作。这段经历让她深入接触医疗健康领域,并对能够改善人们生活的产品有了深刻的理解。
在第三个孩子出生后,一个安静却深刻的问题开始浮现:这真的是她想要的人生吗?
38岁那年,Rachel Lau 选择了勇气,而不是安逸。她毅然离开了原本稳定的道路——在没有任何保证的情况下,迈出了改变人生的一步。
当热情机遇碰撞
在抚养三个儿子的同时,她开始探索社交媒体,最初分享的是自己最热爱的事情之一——烹饪。
她发布的食谱视频和生活方式内容,很快与观众产生了共鸣,人们被她的真实与温暖所吸引。
最初只是一个充满创意的兴趣爱好,但很快便发展成一个更具力量的平台——一个能够连接人与人、激励他人并创造影响力的平台。
正是在这样的数字化影响力中,她接触到了网络营销(Network Marketing),并在直销领域(MLM)迎来了自己的第一次重大成功。她逐渐意识到,自己与人建立联系、凝聚社群的能力,能够为她打开全新的职业机会之门。
在 Greenway Global 迎来事业的重大突破
她的创业旅程在 2025 年 7 月迎来了关键转折——她加入了 Greenway Global。
公司专注于环保与健康理念的产品,这与她作为一位母亲对孩子未来生活环境的关注和价值观高度契合。
Rachel 表示:

“我非常感谢副总裁 Dany Laroque 的支持,也感谢总裁 Leonid Morgunov,是他将这个绝佳的机会带到了我的国家。”

在创纪录的时间内,她成为亚洲晋升速度最快的高阶 Grand Master之一,使她成为公司在该地区,尤其是在马来西亚,最具活力和影响力的领导者之一。
她的成就也进一步获得公司的认可——她成功获得了公司极具象征意义的汽车奖励(Car Bonus),这一里程碑不仅代表卓越的业绩,也象征着对其领导力的认可。
她选择打造一个与自己价值观一致的人生。因为她相信,当一切外在条件都被拿走时,真正留下的,是重新开启人生新篇章的勇气。
对她而言,通过 Greenway Global 创建事业,不仅仅是商业上的成功,更是为了为未来的世世代代创造一个更美好的世界。
她坚信,最有力量的事业,来自于信任、合作以及共享成功。
展望未来
凭借强劲的发展势头和不断壮大的团队网络,她计划将自己的领导力进一步扩展到整个马来西亚乃至更广阔的地区。在优秀导师的支持下,她将持续培养新的合作伙伴,加速团队组织的发展与壮大。对她来说,这段旅程才刚刚开始。
她的故事提醒我们:领导力并不总是沿着传统的道路诞生。有时,它始于家庭,在热情中成长,并逐渐演变成一种能够激励无数人的力量与事业。

Industry strategist Donna Valdes has officially aligned with MWR Life as the global travel membership company gains attention during its expanding United States growth phase.
After years of working behind the scenes helping network marketing leaders and companies modernize branding, training, and customer acquisition strategies, industry strategist Donna Valdes believed her days of actively building in the field were largely behind her.

But recently, something caught her attention.
As conversations began circulating about the momentum building around MWR Life, a global travel membership company approaching a decade in operation, Valdes decided to take a closer look.
MWR Life has generated more than $100 million in global sales while building strong momentum in several international markets. Now, as the company expands throughout the United States, experienced leaders within the profession are watching the company’s growth with curiosity.
Valdes included.
Before forming any opinion, she approached the opportunity the same way she encourages others to evaluate any business platform: test the product personally and study the leadership behind it.

After more than two decades of extraordinary success in the direct selling industry, Chris is ready to bring his experience, heart, and unwavering commitment to “people helping people” back to the DreamTrips family. 
With a career spanning over 20 years, Chris has built massive organizations totaling more than 160,000 team members across multiple companies, driving over $3 billion in company revenue.

Few leaders in the profession can match his track record of sustained growth, duplication, and top-level achievement. 
Redemption, Purpose, and the Power of People 
Yet for Chris, success has never been just about ranks, volume, or paychecks. His story is one of profound personal transformation that fuels everything he does in business and life. 

“Before I found network marketing, my life was a mess,”

Chris openly shares.

“I struggled with drinking and drugs. I went to jail 22 times. Rock bottom finally came, and on July 28, 2001, I got sober – and I’ve stayed sober every single day since. That day changed everything.” 

That turning point didn’t just save his life

MWR Life and the Path of the Samurai. How Nikolay Stomer Built Discipline, Freedom, and Global Impact

Nikolay Stomer describes himself as an ordinary man. Born in a small village with limited prospects, he did not seem destined for global leadership, international business, or a life built around freedom and purpose. What shaped his future was not privilege or opportunity, but example.
His father raised him through action rather than instruction. There were no cigarettes, no alcohol, no excuses. From a young age, Nikolay trained, ran, practiced sports and swam in icy water alongside his father and older brother. Discipline was not imposed. It was lived.

“That’s where my character was built,”

Nikolay reflects.

“Not through words but through action.”

His mother balanced that rigor with emotional strength. She consistently believed in him, offering encouragement and reassurance even when the path ahead was unclear. That belief became a foundation he would return to many times throughout his life.
Today, Nikolay writes from Abkhazia, traveling the world with his family, a lifestyle he has lived for more than fifteen years. But the journey to this point was marked by extremes of success, loss and reinvention.
Success, Comfort, and a Sudden Collapse
After university, Nikolay and his wife built an international wedding and event-planning business that quickly reached elite status. They organized weddings for actors,

From NFL to MWR Life: Keith Willis on Building a Legacy of Impact

From Norfolk resilience to global impact, how Keith Willis, a retired pro athlete, entrepreneur and mentor, turned a humbling moment into a mission.
Raised by two college sweethearts who both went pro, his mother now enshrined in a basketball Hall of Fame and later a 20-year educator; his father a 20-plus-year military veteran, he grew up in a home where academics, athletics and accountability weren’t slogans; they were a way of life.

“That’s where I learned discipline,”

he recalls.

“My parents built me on structure and purpose. Sports and education weren’t optional; they were who we were.”

He starred in both football and basketball at Virginia Tech, then spent five years in the NFL. When the cleats came off, the playbook changed, but the mission didn’t. Entrepreneurship called and so did service. Over the past 15 years, he’s helped more than 400 student-athletes earn their way to college, specializing in football recruitment.

“A true blessing,”

he says,

“to know I can open doors for kids that change their future.”

The Humbling That Lit the Fuse
Network marketing wasn’t on his radar until life shifted. By 2016, he was ready to hear something new. Ready to build again.
But when he went to sign up, his card declined.

After Sudden Company Closure, Sparks Comeback Movement Across Europe
For Beth Brannan, network marketing has never been just a job—it’s been her lifeline, her legacy, and her way to build a better future for her three children while working full-time and climbing the ranks in a competitive industry.
After 13 years of pouring her soul into this profession—achieving elite ranks across three companies—Beth believed she had found her final home with Modere. As an Elite 2 and Platinum 3 leader, she didn’t just build a team—she built a movement, empowering others, traveling the globe, and creating real financial change for her family and countless others. But then, the unthinkable happened.
Modere shut its doors without warning. The news hit like a shockwave. Years of loyalty, leadership, and legacy suddenly up in smoke. Beth shares:

“It felt like the rug had been pulled from under me. But I knew I had a choice—break down or break through.”

She chose breakthrough. Determined not to let her story end in collapse, Beth went on a mission, she says:

“I wasn’t looking for hype. I was looking for home. For something real—ethical, innovative and sustainable.”

Her search led her to Oslo, Norway, where she met Zinzino’s founder Orjan Saele face
