My Story

I’m one of those people that walked away from the mainstream way of health and started figuring things out for myself and my body… I just wanted help! For my emotional mess, hormones, sleep, my babies, and just how to stay well or recover better.

Enter essential oils or “plant power” as I often say! They were easy to use. I was surrounded by women with helpful stories willing to help me. And they worked!

Friends asked “what are you doing differently?” I had some of them over to my house to chat, and I accidentally started a business! That was 2014… 8 years later and I’m still helping families find health solutions and right alongside you learning!
……….

1. How did I first hear about essential oils? 
>>My first real job in 2006, I worked in an Aveda salon with my sister and they were all about plant based products scented with essential oils. They had individual oils too that I would play around with on my break- tea tree for skin and lavender for calming were my go to!

2. What made me say "Yes!" to giving essential oils a try for some big health things ? 
>>A lady at a homeschool convention had a workshop “Oils of the Bible”. I was amazed! Attended another one of her workshops the next day and she talked about how easy oils were to use on her kids and farm animals, including goats. I didn’t have animals, but I did have kids (same thing, right?!) and needed easy! I bought a book from her to learn more and read it for a few weeks before ordering from the first person I knew who was selling Young Living.

Honestly I did shop around for other oils that were cheaper, but I didn’t want to go cheap with stuffing going in/on my body. I wanted a solid company that put the customer’s health first.

3. Why did I start sharing oils with other people?
>>>I shared sample bottles of oils I used for my kids to sleep when Mommas said they were up all night with a crying baby, I made up “get well soon” gifts of oils and soup, and gave my “happy roller” to anyone that was struggling with their emotions, because I just wanted them to see the quick effect they had! I was excited to have others relate to my crazy natural or “crunchy” ways when they found they worked too!

For a decade prior, I had used herbs and plants in different ways. I know I keep saying it, but oils were EASY. A no brainer to start sharing with my friends. I didn’t want to be “alone” or let anyone feel like they were alone in their own stuck health issues.

4. What does it mean to have other people helping you find health solutions? 
>>>You know how you walk into something in life and don’t know what the outcome will be, but you have butterflies in your stomach and joy in your heart? That’s how I felt when I first got into contact with friends who were figuring out how essential oils worked... they all shared a similar vision for connecting with other women through ALL areas of life.

So far it’s meant having ears to listen when my family isn’t feeling well and I’m kind of at the end of my rope. It’s been a group of people cheering me on and getting to watch others be cheered through their health. Constant encouragement and lifelong relationships!

5.What opportunities does Young Living give me and my family? 
>>> We have solutions! Real, tangible, easy solutions to every day issues. Our days are much more manageable with a well stocked arsenal of oils. I don’t mean that lightly, we reach for oils or Young Living products at least a dozen times a day.

Diffusing to change the aroma and environment of a room. Down the spine to help our bodies manage the unseen things we come into contact with. In our skin care and DIY “Everything Cream”. We are healthier and happier with YL in our lives. Fear of health issues is kicked to the curb.

Plus, this is my business. My main income. A work from home Momma isn’t something I planned to be. But it’s been so good to have that be possible while my kids are growing!

6.What has been my greatest wellness story? 
>> Mental health... by far, my biggest reason for starting with YL. I’ve been able to connect physical symptoms with emotional strongholds through the teachings of the founder, Gary Young (does the name Young Living make sense now?!).

I have tools to help my brain and nervous system be strong! Supplements I recommend- Super B, MultiGreens, and OmegaGize. Oils- “Great Day Protocol” Harmony, Valor, White Angelica, and Joy daily!

SO thankful for you taking the time to read my story! I believe stories and sharing the good in our lives leads to healing and connection. I pray you are inspired, uplifted, and strive for more here in this community!

When I hear “free” I think “what’s the catch?”. So here’s the deal with 100% transparency. I have a wholesale account with Young Living where I get 24% off retail prices. Opened by purchasing a Starter Kit of oils. When I started, I was dabbling in direct sales with another wellness company selling herbal blends and supplements. However, with that company I couldn’t let my friends and family in on the same value I was getting. So I really wasn’t making anything since I just gave them my discount.

With Young Living, anyone can get a wholesale account and no one is required to purchase a certain monthly amount or sale to keep that discount. Everyone is able to purchase at the same value I do, and I’m also making a commission that allows me to stay home and grow this as a business.

24% off retail is great! “But wait, there’s more!” {cue the cheesy game show music}. I DO choose to order monthly, because my family loves YL products (yep, more than oils!) and it saves me from having to go out to the stores or find products that meet our toxic free/ethically made standards.

Monthly autoship boxes from YL let me pick what I want and need, and I get free products monthly when purchasing a certain amount. 50 is the minimum. 100 starts the free products.

AND MORE than that, I get 25% back off my purchase in points to use later! What the what?!?!

So lets say I spend $300 in products a month (I do!). That’s already saving about $100 from retail prices. Then, I get free products (this month it’s $97.48 worth). NEXT UP that 25% back in points… 75! If you wanna do the math, that means the value of my $300 order is halved with discounts and freebies!

In July, I cashed in a TON of points and got all of the things above. Makeup that I’ve been wanting to try. Our essentials: detergent, dish soap. Plus toothpaste, hand sanitizer, supplements skin/hair care. Free. FREE! I still can’t get over it, and I’ve been getting a monthly box for four years now.


Want your own box? Wholesale members: Login to your account. Not a member? Make that first Starter Kit of oils your first monthly box! I’ll help you curate your next one according to your Wellness needs.
