June 2019
1. What originally drew you to doTERRA & what’s made you stick with it over time?
After using the oils for about 9 months, I went to convention and that shifted everything for me. The oils and the Life Long Vitality vitamins transformed my health, and convention showed me who dōTERRA is as a whole – the integrity from the Executives, the community, the servant leadership, all of it. I was drawn to making a difference and it was clear to me that sharing dōTERRA would be the vehicle to really start that. After 6 years of working in Hollywood, in TV & Film, I transitioned out, got a job at a spa, and taught classes weekly until I could leave that job. I’ve been actively growing a team since October of 2012, and am still growing my team because as I continue to align with the company’s vision and values my own vision keeps growing. I’ve always been someone who wants to help people heal, in many ways, and dōTERRA has given me the opportunity for that; to help heal people’s health and finances. It’s a win win!
May 2019
It’s been a year since we got married. 365 days later, we’ve lost a lot of sleep and gained a little weight 
In the past year we sold a home, moved twice, gave birth via major abdominal surgery, closed out a shop, sold or gave away most of our belongings & vehicles, looked relentlessly & unsuccessfully for property, modified a camper, etc., etc., etc. Life has been so full, and at times overwhelming, but so sweet.
We happen to be in England for our anniversary. Traveling with a baby is messier, and everything takes ten times as long, and it is barely relaxing. And still I wouldn’t want to be living any other life, than the little one we lead. Thankful that doTERRA has given us this opportunity to build our family and experience life in our own unique way.
April 2019
One of the topics discussed at Leadership last month is something near and dear to our hearts. Free to Give is a dōTERRA-sponsored incentive program designed to inspire Wellness Advocates to pay off debt & live abundantly while becoming free financially in order to be in a better position to give to others.
Started in 2016, Free to Give has become a passion of doTERRA that now has a robust digital and print resources section to help Wellness Advocates tackle what can otherwise be a daunting idea. Broken down into four manageable areas as well as downloadable worksheets, doTERRA has made financial wellness approachable & doable. We’ve all seen how being healthy financially helps promote healthiness is every other area of life.

1. How has doTERRA given you the flexibility to take time off or slow down when needed? What has that meant to you and your family?
Our dōTERRA income has allowed us to quit all conventional full time work and to focus our time and energy where we choose. This has allowed us to slow down and have more time with our kids. This has allowed us to escape the tyranny of the urgent and focus on things that are more at the root level or eternal level. We have been able to devote time to healing at a deeper level as well as lay foundations for our future. When our baby was born sick and had to spend a couple weeks in the NICU, we were both able to be with him every day without losing income or burning vacation days and we had the peace of mind to know that our business would be there when we were able to return to it.

1. What motivated or inspired you to start doTERRA?
Kelli: I was one of those strange people that was drawn to the business side of dōTERRA first, and my love for the oils came later. I was in a place in life, at 28 years old, where I had lost direction and my current profession was only going to get me so far. I wanted time freedom, unlimited earning potential, and the opportunity to lead and support others in business. dōTERRA ticked all of those boxes for me and even though I had zero clue how I was going to do it I just said “yes” and figured the rest out later…
Chris: I’m really glad this was one of the questions. It relates directly to one of the stories I love to reflect back on… [click here to read more]
January 2019
The first person I, Rachel, ever enrolled was my mother, Lisa Jones. She and my father, Richard, have taken doTERRA by storm and over the years have built a steady, strong team. This month we asked them to share a bit about their journey.
Q: How has doTERRA changed your lives?
A: doTERRA has completely changed our lives on many levels which have all elevated our daily lifestyle. The products are incredible! They have allowed us to replace synthetic and toxic OTC medications, personal care products and cleaning products with those made with all natural ingredients…
December 2018
We did an interview with our newest builders so y’all can get to know and love them like we do!
Do you have a favorite go to oil?
Kaila – My favorite oil is Lavender. I’ve had insomnia my entire life and have never looked forward to sleeping at night. This is the first time that I use something and it really knocks me out and lets me sleep well the whole night through.
Jay – Lemon is my favorite oil simply because it’s so versatile. I don’t like my apartment to smell like different scents, lemon is something that is not overbearing and leaves the environment clean. Along with putting it in my water, It’s just the oil we use most often.

Happy November and welcome to our first newsletter! Chris and I want to connect more intentionally with our team, as well as share about what we’re learning/experimenting with in terms of health and wellness, talk about cool things that doTERRA has going on, and let you know about the trainings and events we’re hosting or attending. Our hope is that we can connect with more of you in real life throughout 2019 and beyond!
