    Pat Farrell: Shacklee Independent Distributor

    Looking back on 60 years, Pat Farrell feels a profound sense of gratitude. Although she wasn’t seeking a business opportunity, Shaklee found her. At age 26, she often struggled with low energy while raising two toddlers, and she dealt with persistent rashes on her hands unless she wore plastic gloves for any cleaning task. She was introduced to Shaklee’s Basic H organic cleaning product, which resolved those issues. Later, after incorporating the company’s multivitamins and protein into her routine, her energy improved significantly. She also discovered the value of combining a home-based business with full-time motherhood. She and her husband, Pat, built the business together alongside his automotive ventures, while raising four children, managing school and soccer activities, and even overseeing a small Drum & Bugle Corps for about 10 years. Throughout it all, the business grew steadily through repeat customers who experienced strong results. Her husband passed away in 2015. While product delivery has become much easier today than it was in 1966, the people-centered nature of the business remains unchanged. She continues as an Independent Shaklee Distributor with an inheritable business model. The company handles research and development, quality control, shipping, training, and more—allowing her to focus on sharing better health with people of all ages. Pat feels truly blessed not only to have access to products that support good health, but also to be actively involved with the Westminster Chamber. There is never a dull moment.

    Joe McWhirter: HeyJo.io

    Joe was raised in Indiana and left for the Navy right after high school, serving aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71). After his service, he used the GI Bill to attend Purdue University, graduating in 1995. His career has largely been in software sales, hardware, and just about every form of technology and services giving him a front-row seat to how businesses evolve. Six years ago, Joe moved to Colorado on what he now remembers as day one of COVID. After a decade with an MSP, he stepped into the restoration industry, where he found a deeper appreciation for servant leadership and helping business owners solve real problems. But the pull to build something of his own never left. In December 2025, Joe leaned into AI, earned his certification as an AI generalist, and finally took the step to launch his own firm. With AI and the relationships he's built over the years, Joe was able to get up and running quickly. Today, he's doing work he genuinely enjoys, helping business owners adopt AI with clarity, honesty, and security at the core. If you’re navigating AI and want a clear path forward, visit HeyJo.io.   Joseph McWhirter Owner/Visionary 773-213-6768 Inside Westminster is proudly sponsored by: Presidential Bank MortgageCompany NMLS #421593 | Equal Housing Lender I 303.668.5891 I www.OwnYourFuture.netBrett Popish NMLS 253202   Westminster Chamber303.961.5975www.westminsterchamber.biz
