NEOLIFE Lifestyle PEOPLE
When Isaac and his wife Purity joined NeoLife in 2013, he was desperate for a way to add to his income because his salary as a teacher wouldn’t cover their bills. He taught for over fifteen years and served as the Head of Department Languages at a local Kenyan high school.
He earns more working his
NeoLife Business than he did as
a teacher. “This business has
helped me clear my debt and
freed me from the banks. We
have no gaps in our income at all!
My wife and I have been able to
send our children to good schools. It has helped me build my family a lovely home and we’ve also managed to build rental homes, so we’re getting even more of a regular income. On top of it all, I’ve bought myself a nice Toyota Caldina,” Isaac says. “Working our business creates such joy in our lives and gives us hope for our future, and the future of our children,” adds Purity.
Isaac believes that many teachers could benefit from the NeoLife Opportunity. “It can
supplement their mea- gre salaries and gives them the power to
teach others about good health and how to get out of poverty.” He also encourages stu- dents who are graduating to invest in them- selves and in their futures by joining NeoLife. “Jobs are scarce in our country. Our stu- dents would be wise to start this business once they reach the age of 18 years.”
The couple have travelled to several exotic locations, thanks to the company, including Dubai, Cape Town, Abu Dhabi and Mauritius. Isaac says Mauritius was his favourite trip

While Isaac says working the business on a part-time basis is a fantastic way to start, you have to consider trying to move to a full- time basis once your business stabilises. “Part-time will give you part-time results unless you maintain a full-time mentality.” The couple says you have to think NeoLife, live NeoLife - be NeoLife in order to grow a successful and impactful business.
