Nora O'Connell is a living testament to the power of her product.

Nora first discovered Mink Oil back in 1990 when she was suffering from severe skin allergies. At a visit to the Calgary Women's Show with her husband, her curious spouse managed to book 27 different facials for her in an attempt to find a skincare product that would not irritate her condition.

As she tried product after product, Nora learned to expect the usual flare-up, but to her surprise she found one that actually helped calm her skin. The Rosemarie Collection was a full skincare line containing mink oil, and Nora was immediately hooked.

Nora signed up right away as a distributor, mostly to get the products for herself at the distributor's rate, but of course she told everyone she knew about her discovery, so she also built a downline and a client list at the same time.

Originally from Montreal, Nora moved to Calgary in 1978 with her husband and three sons. Having travelled extensively across Canada, the family agreed that Southern Alberta was where they wanted to live. Nora laughs, though, that she would have settled in Medicine Hat but she was outvoted.

Nora worked for a furnace oil company and then secured a job as secretary at her childrens' school. She then became their cubmaster, while her husband later took up the positions of scoutmaster and hockey coach. Her sons used to joke that they wouldn't have had the chance to get into trouble even had they been so inclined!

After the school, Nora worked for a medical clinic in Calgary and then as assistant manager at Acadia Recreation Complex.

Her next move was into a position as Chairperson of the Employment Insurance Board of Appeal, which led her to her current position of Returning Office for Calgary East. She loves this work, which is interesting and varied, even though the pace and stress levels really heat up at election time.

Since Peoplesway was founded, based on two of The Rosemarie Collection's most powerful products, Nora has been putting even more of her effort behind these incredible supplements. Nora loves the Peoplesway line of high impact, therapeutical products with which her customers often experience improvements in chronic conditions in as little as one day.

Nora's husband was a prime candidate for Protec, as he suffered from arthritis so bad that he was forced to take debilitating, daily doses of morphine for the pain. Nora laughs that it took them a while to clue in that he should really try Protec, but since he has started to take the product he has stopped taking the morphine and his arthritis has settled right down.

Nora's husband is now retired, but he loves to help with her business, and together they are planning to help build Peoplesway until it becomes a household name.

Nora also enjoys a great deal of volunteering in her spare time. As a survivor of breast cancer, she does the May and October walks and she helps out with the bi-annual fundraising drives. She also helps with the drives for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. She volunteers at her church, and then with the few remaining hours she says she spends time with her cats Missy and Whiskey and she sleeps.

Peoplesway has provided Nora with such a great way for her to help her clients find solutions to their health problems, and she plans to spend the next few years building her network of distributors and clients.

As for the future, she would like to travel some more. She has already seen a great deal of Canada and the US, but she has a strong urge to see the Middle East, Israel and Greece.
