About Gareth Davies:

Gareth Davies began his journey in the world of professional sport, only to have his career cut short far earlier than expected. After trying his hand at conventional employment, he quickly realized he wasn’t built for the 9-to-5 grind—especially when it meant being told when he could take a holiday and how little he was worth.

A born entrepreneur, Gareth went on to own multiple businesses, but it was 30 years ago when he was first introduced to network marketing that something truly clicked. He was drawn to the personal growth, the people, and the promise of building something on his own terms.

Alongside his wife, Gareth built a thriving business during the pandemic—only to see it unravel due to decisions beyond their control. Undeterred, he sought out a more transparent and values-driven company where he could rebuild with integrity and intention.

Now based in the Arctic Circle, where he moved from the UK a decade ago, Gareth continues to blend entrepreneurial grit with a deep passion for helping others grow—not just in business, but in life.

In this episode, Jennie Bellinger and Gareth Davies discuss:

• Network Marketing Journey and Mindset
• Redox Molecules and Health Benefits
• Personalized Sales Approach
• Importance of Continuous Personal Development
• Entrepreneurial Flexibility and Adaptability

Key Takeaways:

• Success rarely follows a straight line in direct sales, but rather, embrace the ups and downs, learning from each experience and staying committed to personal growth.
• Understanding your body’s cellular needs can transform your approach to wellness. 
• Speak directly to a person’s specific pain points or goals rather than using broad, unfocused messaging, and when you connect a product’s benefits to an individual’s unique challenges, you create genuine interest and trust.
• Your mindset and knowledge are your most valuable business assets.
• Being open to new opportunities and willing to pivot when necessary can lead to unexpected breakthroughs, and whether it’s changing industries, exploring new products, or reimagining your approach, flexibility is key to long-term success.
