Her main goal was to manage her weight and get healthy.<\/p>\n<p>We talked through her current goals and past weight-management attempts, and I learned she had tried <em>everything<\/em>: Atkins, Paleo, fasting, Weight Watchers\u2014but she was still struggling. She was frustrated, understandably.<\/p>\n<p>Together, we talked through a diet and weight-management plan. She was going to start slowly increasing her physical activity from once a week to four times a week (she was going to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/05\/31\/zumba-weight-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">start taking Zumba<\/a>, because, like me, straight-up cardio bored her). She also mentioned she was struggling to get enough protein in, so I told her she had come to the right place. We grabbed her a dozen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=Quest%2Bbars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quest bars <\/a>to get her started and a few sample packs of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=Next%2BStep%2Bsingle-serving%2Bpackets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Next Step single-serving packets<\/a>. She also picked up a sample container of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=appefit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AppeFit <\/a>to jumpstart her new diet plan.<\/p>\n<p>Amazingly, that very same customer came in again recently and looked<em> very<\/em> different. She was picking up more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=quest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quest <\/a>and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=Next%2BStep%2Bsingle-serving%2Bpackets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Next Step<\/a> products, as well as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=PLNT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">plnt<\/a> product to help get more greens in! It is amazing to see a customer\u2019s progress and to think that I played even a small role in it.<\/p>\n<p>These interactions really motivate me to do my best and help every single customer to the best of my abilities.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2>ASHLEY BRIJMOHAN<br>\nStore #575 East Rutherford, NJ<\/h2>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe width=\"740\" height=\"416\"

I have a background in science, and I wanted to work for a company that allowed me to use my knowledge in that area. Before I worked in corporate for The Vitamin Shoppe, I worked in the field. I learned so much! The team I worked with taught me to be positive about challenging situations, to be resourceful, and to have patience, which helped to make my moments with customers that much more rewarding.<\/p>\n<p>I remember working with a middle-aged couple that came into the store for the first time. They mentioned they were sleeping enough and eating well, but still feeling very tired. They also mentioned that they were preparing to send their son away to college in a few months. I got the sense that they\u2019d been struggling with a bit of stress\u2014so I let them know that The Vitamin Shoppe carries a few products that may help promote stress relief. That night, they went home with a jar of The Vitamin Shoppe brand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=turmeric\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">turmeric.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A week before my last day in the field, they both came in again\u2014and they hugged and thanked me. They mentioned that at their age, it\u2019s easy to just overlook feelings of tiredness, to just \u2018power through it\u2019. They also said that they learned that it\u2019s necessary to listen to our bodies, and I think I helped them do just that.<\/p>\n<p>It can be overwhelming to walk into a store with thousands and thousands of products surrounding you, but I believe I helped make their experience simple and gratifying. I was overwhelmed with their happiness, and it reminded me just about how important it is to communicate my knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>They promised they would continue to be loyal to their health\u2014and to The Vitamin Shoppe. I thanked them for their loyalty and promised them that we are a brand that can trust.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<hr>\n<h2>OLIVIA BYRAM<br>\nStore #040, Levittown, NY<\/h2>\n<div

They assume it\u2019s a lot of hard work (and it is!), but they don\u2019t know how rewarding it can actually be. I <em>love <\/em>telling people about The Vitamin Shoppe’s culture and values, and that every day I leave work knowing that I made a difference in someone’s life\u2014that\u2019s what makes this career experience so fulfilling.<\/p>\n<p>I think back on the man who came in ready to give up on his diet plan because it wasn\u2019t yielding results and was just too expensive. He felt hopeless, worried that he\u2019d eventually <em>have<\/em> to turn to surgery to manager his weight. But when he left my store, he was filled with renewed hope. I helped him find a new set of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=supplements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">supplements<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=protein%2Bshakes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> protein shakes<\/a>, and healthy snacks that didn’t break the bank\u2014and could help get him back on track. It was so incredible to see his dedication to his health in this moment.<\/p>\n<p>When he came back in weeks later, he was so excited. In fact, he\u2019d already lost 10 pounds and was feeling great. He was so incredibly thankful that he\u2019d decided to stop by The Vitamin Shoppe weeks earlier. Those are the kinds of stories I tell when people ask me what I do for a living. Those moments give me a sense of purpose and joy.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2><strong>STEPHANIE PEACOCK<br>\n<\/strong><strong>Store #218 Hurst, TX<\/strong><strong><br>\n<\/strong><br>\n<noscript><img

young man came into the store and shared with me that he was fresh out of rehab from drug use. On top of that, he was struggling to conquer feelings of stress and anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>We immediately connected. I shared my own story of recovery with him (I am now 13 years sober), and I talked to him about the importance of nutrition in the process. I told him a little about the things (like supplements) that helped me feel better physically and mentally. That day, he purchased a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/multivitamins\/N-892?search1=multivitamins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> multivitamin<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=b%2Bcomplex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">B-complex<\/a>, and the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=l-theanine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> L-Theanine. <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nine months later, a very fit young man entered my store and said he was glad I was there. He asked if I remembered him (of course I did!) and held up an Alcoholics Anonymous One-Year Chip. He was sober and healthy.<\/p>\n<p>He told me he was grateful for my help months earlier, and thanked me for sharing my story with him. He\u2019d even been working out at a gym, had gotten himself a nutritionist, and had been coming back to The Vitamin Shoppe for refills on his supplements.<\/p>\n<p>He asked if he could give me a hug, and I just burst into tears.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing that I had helped someone who had walked a similar path to my own is one of the most precious gifts working for The Vitamin Shoppe has given me.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<hr>\n<h2>MUSTAFA HASHIMI<br>\n#828 STATEN ISLAND, NY<\/h2>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe width=\"740\" height=\"416\"

The couple was so happy that I took the time to really explain everything for them. In fact, the woman was so excited that she hugged me! They told me they had really never met someone who cared so much about their goals, and I let them know that I did care and that I believed healthy eating, exercise, and supplementation would definitely yield results. I also asked them to come back and let me know how it was going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shop for products to support your unique health needs.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A month later, they both came in to see me.

They also told me they\u2019d been telling their friends and family about me and the store.
