My Story
The beauty of what I do is that I can do it from anywhere. Literally. Wherever I am.
I'm sure like many parents waiting on the arrival of their new addition, I was no different. I was thinking I want to be the best and do the best I can, but to do that I needed to look at myself first.
You need to do, be and feel better to give and do better for others, or at least that's how I feel. And so here I had a friend telling me about "essential oils". I didn't know what they were and I kinda rolled my eyes but listened to the stories as she had recently brought them into the home. She shared how they were supporting her kids, herself, how they supported kids on her street when their mom said they had tummy troubles after a meal, and then there was the story about her friend's neighbour with a child with breathing concerns who had been on aids during the day and at night and after use of an oil to support respiratory health no longer needed them. That's when I thought I need to explore this further. I'm about to become a mom and if these truly do what I'm hearing, I need these.
I began researching hard core. I got so fascinated by the medical research and stories from people all across the world that matched one another that I knew it was not simply fluke they all experienced the same. I learned not all essential oils are the same. The FDA will not approve essential oils because any medicine requires a patent and because essential oils come from plants and plants obviously aren't patented, they simply won't be FDA approved. I learned any company can write what they want on a bottle because there are no regulations. The majority on the market I learned are perfume grade, have additives, are unpure and adulterated. Sorry but there was no way I was going to have those around my child nor myself for that matter. I learned doterra were the only oils the medical community trusts and are used in medical practice and in medical research. There are scientists and doctors who I trust and I'm not one for listening solely to aromatherapists because oils are much more than aromatherapy when they can be used also topically and internally.
When I heard first hand in my research via phone conversations with people around the world, text messages and videos of parents whose children with behavioural and learning concerns, skin conditions, joint and muscle discomfort, etc. were being supported I could not turn a blind eye. The stories I heard about adults being supported also had me ready to jump in. I believe in health care and if I need it I have it readily available but I wanted to start caring for us and being proactive in areas of our life where we could.
Let's fast forward... I got the oils, saw immediately results in my own life. Changed cleaning ingredients in my home, my skin pigment discoloration disappeared, my hair grew, my skin cleared up, my energy level increased, joint discomfort decreased, and more. My daughter arrived, I dived into using them with her and everything took off to the point I absolutely believed I had to make a difference in the lives of others. It is my passion and my mission. It started with me, then I had others who reached out and wanted healthier alternatives for themselves, others for their family members. They began using them and some came to the same conclusion, that they couldn't sit back but had to share and make a difference in the lives of others and then I began having a team of people coming together with a shared purpose.
The beauty of what I do is that I can do it from anywhere. Literally. Wherever I am. I've got members of my team around the world. No matter your age, your sex, whether you have a family or not, this can be for anyone. If a mom of 8 kids can do a doTERRA biz, this mom of 1 can do it.
Like the rest of you, the Pandemic had given me a lot of time to pour into various things, one of which is actually researching further what I hear in the media, deciphering truth versus fiction. Did you know that Tylenol is the #1 reason for liver failure in children? There are so many things we simply do and take for granted without researching, thinking they are fine otherwise they wouldn't be sold. There is a lot I've discovered in terms of health, not just what's happening now but other prevalent disorders and such that have increased astronomically in numbers over the years that have me even more so 110% invested in making a difference in the lives of others. I cannot sit back and simply do nothing but what I will be is that ear to listen, that person to provide guidance and to be alongside someone on their journey to improved wellness.
