a Green Compass Advocate
Founder
Lauren Magel
I believe this is what I was meant to do! It embodies everything: I am a helper, teacher, community builder, leader, and listener. I have a gift to share with others that I know can help them feel their best. And knowing that the smart decision these days is having multiple income streams is the icing on the cake. Being able to help provide for my family while still doing all the mom, wife, and friend things I want to do because of the flexibility I have makes this all the better.

I can help you create a daily hemp wellness routine to help with inflammation, sleep, anxious thoughts, mood, focus, gut health, pain, and overall body balance. I can work with people in person or over the phone.
Do you have a group of friends, family, or co-workers that wants to learn more? We can host a Hempy Hour together! I will bring everything we need. Product samples, mocktails, games, raffles, goodie bags, and, most of all, education!
It all starts with a conversation, so let’s connect!
Green Compass has a full line of USDA-certified organic hemp wellness products. What makes us different is your one-on-one connection with your Advocate to support you in your journey. I will help you with dosing, timing, daily routines, adjusting, and answering questions. Think of it like your hemp wellness concierge!
My Story
I always thought being a teacher was one of the best jobs. While teaching ESL virtually during COVID-19 and helping my children navigate their pandemic learning journeys, it was a friend who used CBD for back pain that I was unable to treat at the time. I thought she was crazy! I didn’t know what CBD was and didn’t know the difference between CBD, pot, and marijuana! I was hesitant, but I eventually tried it. And guess what? It helped!
One thing led to another; I did a little more research. My family (husband, kids, teens, and parents) started using the products for sleep, stress, anxious thoughts, and focus. Guess what, it was helping! I couldn’t believe that this one product was helping with so many different things, so I started to want to understand the why and the how.
The more I learned, the more I wanted to know! Shortly after, the business opportunity was presented to me. This opportunity came to me while teaching, volunteering, and being a mom and a wife. I did not feel like I had much extra time to give. But I heard something around the same time that said nothing changes if nothing changes.
This stuck with me. I couldn’t complain about our situation if I weren’t going to do something to change it. We had spent many years living off of our savings because life had brought us into a path of changes. We knew to make the lifestyle changes that we wanted to, something needed to change. This was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up, and it came exactly when we needed it.
I was slower to get started. I did a lot of research. I listened to a lot of training. I built up my testimonials. I didn’t know how to get started because this was out of my comfort zone. However, the community of Green Compass was very supportive and provided everything I needed. So once I put my faith in myself and followed the steps, I realized these products were a gift to me and so many around me. While on a girls’ weekend, someone asked, “What is that that you’re doing?” as I started to share, everyone slowly joined in the conversation. Everyone was asking questions. Everyone was curious. It was at that moment that I realized that this is something that could help me and help so many others. This was the turning point for me to step outside my comfort zone and start sharing with others.
Fast forward a few years, and my family was in a different situation again. As I was supposed to be gearing up to return to school, my husband had started a new job filled with travel, but we had a family health situation that would take some focus. I believe everything happens for a reason, and I took this as my open door to step away from teaching and focus on being part of the hemp wellness exploding industry. It would give me the time and freedom to work, be home, and be with my family where needed. I didn’t have this luxury as a teacher.
I took the opportunity and continued to grow it. I am always out in the community, making connections, getting to know other business owners, and figuring out how to collaborate to improve our community and create business opportunities.
I help people find products that help them live better every day! I get to hear testimonials like, “I haven’t slept like that in years!” or “I was able to sit down on the floor with my grandson!” or “My skin hasn’t looked this good since I was in my 30s!”.
So, I would say that I have found something I love in this sometimes hated world of network marketing! And for that, I am forever grateful!
Community Involvement & Global Betterment
Locally, I support a Women Supporting Women group and many local events that include education, raffle prizes, and time! But nationally and globally, I am so proud of the company I represent in Avon, Connecticut.
