She's a Diva

Passion Parties by Erica


Rumor has it that there’s a new breed of woman popping up in unsuspecting cities and villages throughout the world. She can be spotted by the swing in her step, the warmth of her smile and the gleam in her eye that hints at the fact she is up to something bigger than the average woman. This woman is often in disguise - posing as a mom, wife, teacher, banker, community volunteer or businesswoman - just to name a few. No matter what she’s up to she brings along a positive attitude, a caring spirit and a willingness to do what it takes to get the job done. Perhaps the most telling sign that you are in her presence is that she somehow sees the best in you and makes you feel good about yourself.

Who is she you ask? She’s the Direct Selling Diva… of course! Are you a Direct Selling Diva?

While a Diva comes in all shapes and sizes, there are a few ways to tell when you are in her presence.

 When everyone else is making EXCUSES why they can’t – the Diva is already out the door doing whatever it takes AGAIN.

 The Diva is undaunted in the face of “NOs” and simply adds their names to her list of WHY she will SUCCEED.

 The Diva knows that making the business FUN is the same as making it SUCCESSFUL.

 The Diva has a favorite outfit she wears when she wants to look like a million bucks… and of course, she does.

 While BUNNY SLIPPERS are an option, the Diva dresses for success, even on the days her cat is the sole witness to her BEAUTY.

 The Diva is just as comfortable sharing her products at the local PLAYGROUND as she is in a fancy BOARDROOM.

 The Diva’s favorite mantras are “Failure is NOT AN OPTION,” and “I succeed through CONTRIBUTION.”

We all have a “Diva” inside of us and direct selling women embrace it fully. She makes every day count by helping others, making a difference and taking good care of herself. So embrace the Diva in you and live this day, and the next, with the heart of a Direct Selling Diva!
It’s never too late to unleash the Diva inside you! Call me today for details.

Sex Toys 101

Sex Toys. Sex toys can add to the fun & excitement of bedroom play. They offer a wide spectrum of possibilities. As your resident SEXpert I love sex toys! However I am aware not that everyone else is as devoted to the topic of sex toys. Some Men feel very threatened by sex toys. They often feel as if they are being replaced by a battery operated every ready penis. Others fear that their partner will become addicted to the toy, that she is more orgasmic with the toy than she is with him. A smart woman will educate her partner on what she likes, what she gets out of the toy, what it is that she likes, the sensations she adores. It is also helpful to incorporate the toys into your lovemaking, doing this will help to ease his discomfort with the topic of toys. If your partner feels any level of apprehension towards sex toys it is wise to begin your exploration with toys, start small and quiet. Bullet type toys are best for beginners. They provide ample stimulation and various levels of vibration. Bullets are sure to help you reach the climax you seek.
The history of sex toys is a lengthy one. Sex Toys have been unearthed in Pharaoh’s tombs, as well as in both Incan and Indian civilizations. They have been around for ages however not widely accepted in most societies. Again – “Nice Girls Don’t Do That!” There is a parallel however, not every culture from around the globe believes that the use of sex toys is normal or acceptable. It is important to know your partners cultural, personal. And religious views on the use of toys before introducing them into your bedroom activities.
Today many toys are made in Japan or China and feature both vaginal and clitoral stimulation, are made of silicone and have varied speeds, and other functions. When shopping for toys there are a few things one must consider- where it can be used, is waterproof, what type of cleanser is required, what is the power supply- does it require batteries- if so what type? Is it rechargeable, a what type of storage is required Knowing this will enable you to make an informed decision on your purchase and help you to protect your investment.
At Passion Parties we have 4 main categories of toys. Bullets, Passion Toys, Deluxe Toys, and G-Spot Toys. All toys are not created equal. I can not tell you which the best toy is. What is amazing to me might not be so great to you. Our bodies are different. Our sensitivity level could bee drastically different. I encourage you to host a Passion Party so that you can truly experience the toys and make an informed decision on which is best for you.

National Masturbation Month

May in National Masturbation Month. Seriously, I didn’t just make that up. Masturbation is a taboo subject. It is considered to be a dirty thing. More often than not most women are still uncomfortable with talking about the subject of self-pleasure.
Masturbation is a private affair one has all by themselves. More men masturbate than women. It is a combination of the physical act of self-pleasure and the mental act developing and utilizing sexual fantasies. It is said to b impossible to reach a point of ecstasy while masturbating without the use off sexual fantasies. It is a perfectly normal to masturbate as well as extremely helpful to pleasure oneself.
Males may begin to masturbate at a very early age. This act take a turn around age 12 years old. At the onset of puberty they can ejaculate and the pleasure is magnified. Little Girls are more reluctant to masturbate than their male counterparts. It is often not until their late teens that they are able to masturbate and know what they are doing.
There is a double standard to masturbation, as with many other things. The phrase “Nice Girls Don’t Do That!” Comes into play again. Women who do are often shunned, or thought of as freaks, the town tramp. In reality most women reach their very first orgasm all alone. Bonus: women who masturbate are more likely to reach orgasm with their partner. This is because she knows her body. She knows what she likes. She can express her wishes to her lover, letting him know that where to touch her, what to do.
Men masturbate one way, Manual Stimulation. Women however have endless possibilities. There is of course is manual stimulation, but women also can use adult toys, showerheads, Jacuzzi spout, pillows….. The list goes on and on. I invite you to explore your body and develop your own sexual fantasies. Happy Touching!

Add some Pizzaz to your Home Party with Themes!!!

Bored with Home Parties? Tired of the same old presentations, decorations, and food? Think THEMES! Summer is fast approaching and it is the perfect time for a home party! There are so many possibilities! Whether you choose to have Mexican Fiesta or Chocoholic Extravaganza your consultant is committed to creating an unforgettable experience for you and your friends.
The time involved in planning your themed party is really no different than that of a typical home party. Décor is important is creating the mood of the party. It is important to work with your party plan consultant so that she can plan according to your theme. This can bee discussed in your coaching appointment.
Themed invitations set the tone for your party, as the guests know what to expect at the party- there is nothing worse than showing up at Pajama Party in your work clothes! Your consultant should have access to invitation templates that will coincide with your party theme. These invitations are widely available or, with a little no-how, are easily produced using Microsoft Publisher or other comparable software programs.
For my themed parties I offer a drink or dessert recipe that complements the theme. This helps support the hostess in her party plans and ensures that the theme is seamless throughout the entire event. Food and drink work as a secondary prop for the event. While I do recommend that refreshments for home parties be kept as simple as possible, it is a nice gesture to offer food and drink to your guests. You do not have to offer a full meal, however Nachos at a Cinco De Mayo party just makes sense.
Your consultant can also offer product bundles and other specials that can correspond with your theme. When I do a Chocoholic Extravaganza theme I offer a discount on our White Chocolate Body Powder. Work with your consultant to see if there is a special promotion she can offer your guests to enhance the quality of your party experience.

What to Expect from your Home Party Experience

Hosting a home party can be a great way to get the girls together! You can catch up with old friends, make new ones, laugh and play games, all while shopping for some great products you can’t get anywhere else. Whether you’re working with a skin care consultant or a romance party consultant it is imperative that the hostess and the consultant are in agreement on basic expectations to insure a successful party experience.
It important that the hostess understand that she is the business partner of the consultant until her show has closed. The consultant trades free and discounted products in exchange for a time and place to sell her merchandise. The amount of free and discounted product she receives is determined by how much is sold at the party as well as bonuses for outside orders, party bookings, and consultant leads. The consultant’s livelihood depends on the hostess keeping her word that she will have X amount of people gathered to not only have a good time but make purchases from her. When booking any home party, read your hostess packet carefully in order to get a clear understanding of what you are expected to do as a hostess. In my home party business with Passion Parties I require my hostesses to provide me with a table, have 10 divas in attendance, 5 outside orders, and 2 party bookings. If this is done before the party it almost always guaranteed to be a successful show! In my business I require a guest list with, names addresses, and telephone numbers. These are used to mail out invitations, and offer reminder calls – in this busy world most people need a reminder!
As you hostess you have just as much of a right to have clear expectations of the consultant you are working with. The consultant must be excited about your show and put in a lot of effort to help you plan your party. This includes but is not limited to, offerings specials to your guests, mailing out invitations to your guest, completing reminder calls and providing you with an unforgettable party experience. The hostess can expect that the home party will be entertaining. There is a ratio at play – The home party experience should be 70% party and 30% products. This is not merely a sales presentation. This is a chance for you to reconnect with your friends and family while enjoying some of your favorite products. The consultant should take into account that the hostess has worked hard on her end to insure the success of her show, and earn the maximum free and discount product available given the party plan companies hostess compensation plan.
The guidelines and expectations will very by individual consultant and party plan company. It is essential that there is a clear understanding of what the expectations are early in the business arrangement. I recommend a face to face hostess coaching appointment so there are no misunderstandings and everyone is on the same page. The rewards of a successful show are clearly seen on the faces of your guests as they are going to truly enjoy this experience.

Bullets- Starter Toy or Standard Issue?

Welcome to toy Week! This Week we are going to celebrate adult toys by highlighting different types of toys. Today is all about the bullet! We will discuss many different types of Bullets that Passion Parties by Erica offers and how you can introduce them into your bedroom activities.
Often referred to as a starter toy, the Bullet Massager comes in many shapes and forms. The main purpose of the Bullet is to provide clitoral stimulation for women. These toys appeals to over 75% of women who require clitoral stimulation to elevate levels of pleasure to the point of orgasm. The Bullet is definitely a staple in any woman’s toy box.
The standard Bullet Massager offers low effort high impact orgasms. It is cost affective for the diva on a budget but does lack some practical functions. There is a chance for the wire to be yanked from the unit during an orgasmic frenzy. Use this toy to break in your spouse who might be reluctant to bringing adult toys in to the bedroom.
The next upgraded model is the Pretty in Pink Bullet. Not only is this toy powerful, with four different speeds to choose from, but it is visually appealing. Pink with an iridescent finish, ladies love it! This model does allow for the cord to come unplugged so yanking on the unit is no longer an issue. Also there is an optional Pineapple Attachment that features nubby bumps for extra textile stimulation. The controller of this toy is practical and easy to use, so there is not fumbling with dials while you are attempting to be intimate with your partner.
Pure Gold. The name says it all. This toy offers the best of both worlds, beauty and brawn. It features a gold finish and is adorned with a circle of rhinestones. Every diva likes a little bling! The toy feature 3 speeds and has pinpoint accuracy and is waterproof. Bonus! Water Play! Unlike many bullet toys this one actual resembles it’s namesake in shape.
The funniest new novelty in the bullet category would be the new Tongue Tickler. This toy is designed to enhance female pleasure during oral play. The Tongue Tickler is actually tongue shaped and has a soft tongue strap and is designed to be worn on your lovers tongue! This toy is very low in cost as it only offers a 40 minute life span.
The Blossom Bliss – a flower that will seriously make you bloom! This toy is waterproof; I actually keep mine in the shower and well, let’s say that those herbal essences commercials are a reality for me. I invite you to take this toy in the bathroom and some extra spice to your kinky shower sessions.
The New Rockin’ Rabbit. A bullet unlike any other Passion Parties by Erica offers! The toy is designed to inserted. The average bullet type toy is meant for clitoral stimulation only. It feature rabbit ears for clitoral stimulation while waves of vibrations send you rockin’!
These toys are both a practical starting point in your adult toy odyssey and a welcome addition to the already established romance tool kit. Again like always I invite you to play with your partner. While solo play can be enticing and a great way to beat the lonelies when they sneak up on you, butt couples play can be immensely gratifying for both parties. Communication is key in toy play. Tell him what you like, what feels good and what doesn’t. The effects can be mind shattering!
