Jan Roberts is a bright, vivacious, middle-aged woman who looks quite satisfied with her life.  She gets asked who she is quite a bit and here is her response:

"I am a mum and a knowledge gatherer and dispenser.

"To give you the low-down, I have an honours degree in Pharmacy and a postgraduate diploma in Clinical Nutrition. Since 1987 I’ve been the Australian representative for Foresight, the British Association famous for its work in promoting preconception health care.

"I present lectures and workshops on building better babies to prospective parents and health professionals throughout the world and am a frequent guest on radio, television and Internet chat shows."

Why should YOU listen to HER advice?

"These days, you’ve got every right to feel skeptical. The info below is to reassure you that I have the very best interests of you and your family at heart.

"REASON #1: I’ve been through what you’re going through. I’ve raised 2 beautiful boys but along the way had miscarriages and dealt with all of that it takes to have a baby and raise a family naturally and successfully. When I haven’t had the experience myself, I’ve talked to plenty of couples who have confronted the particular problem – in fact, the experiences of other families are what inspire me to continue the work I do. The information and techniques I’ve learned along the way are priceless and nothing counts more than experience with PROVEN results on the board.

"REASON #2: I’m a full time specialist for all that it takes to Build a Better Baby- a consultant who has honed her skills for the past 20 years on the front lines of Preconception, Pregnancy, Baby and Childcare.

"REASON #3: I’m the author of 8 books on the subject. They’re all been well-reviewed and have sold like hotcakes. You may be familiar with them…

"There are translations into Dutch, Spanish and Italian too!

"REASON #4: I’ve stood on the stage of more conferences and conventions than I can count and the invitations to speak just keep coming! Fact is, you can’t share the stage with the likes of my many co-presenters unless you know your stuff!

"REASON #5: I’m a perpetual student! And my knowledge is extensive! So you’ll be getting information that has been proven to work. One of my favorite past-times is to study the latest research in my area. I’m not one of those people who simply think they know something about fertility, pregnancy and babies, I’ve done the research. I know! I never STOP reading, devouring and applying this information. The point is, I’m constantly learning and honing my skills so my clients and members get fantastic results. I would expect nothing less from those whose words I trust.

"REASON #6: I also run a small, exclusive coaching group called my Private Practitioner Preconception and Pregnancy Program, limited to 28 practitioners. Each Member invests a significant amount of money a year to take their seat at this prestigious table. They wouldn’t invest this money if they didn’t believe I had the goods to deliver so that they could better help their own clients.

"REASON #7: I put lifestyle and family at the top of my priorities. I live in one of the best parts of the world, walk by a magnificent Harbour every day enjoying the freedom and the fresh air. Even though I’m away many weekends with my speaking and consulting commitments, that still gives me over 300 days in paradise. Most of my work is done from home and I rarely do more than 4 hours a day. I value lifestyle and zero stress. My boys are young men now, but seeing them happy in their careers and in love with their lives in general contributes enormously to that zero stress. This is an important aspect of raising kids, and I can tell you how to do it. I’m dedicated to improving the lives of my members and clients by exposing them to things they may never have known about how to get pregnant successfully and nurture a truly happy, healthy family."
