A lot of people I talk to never think of using essential oils in the kitchen, but you can, IF and ONLY IF you are using a high quality, PURE essential oil like dōTERRA . A lot of essential oils (or should I say "claim to be") you find in the store, or places like Amazon or eBay, are not really essential oils at all. They are "fragrance" oils and are ofte...

"We had an independent lab test the purity of 33 oil samples from well-known names in the essential oil industry to see what was really inside each bottle." ConsumersAdvocate.org Consumers Advocate , an independent review site with no affiliations to any essential oil company, recently studied the top-selling essential oil companies ...

There are always lots of fun-filled events & activities, such as barbeques, picnics, fishing, boating, vacations or staycations, home projects and much more! It’s all good & exciting!

It has been a while since I have blogged, but today I feel focused and since Spring is all about renewal, it feels like a great day to write one. Since May is often referred to as May Flowers due to April Showers, I thought it would be a great opportunity to share some info about some of dōTERRA’s beautiful floral oils. It makes me smile to type that b...

My word for 2018 was Trust. It served me well. It offered me support when I had moments of self-doubt. It got me back on track as the Universe reminded me, I was on the right path and doing exactly what I am supposed to be doing. Each day I was encouraged to trust and keep going, which gave me momentum. At the end of the day, God doesn’t make mistak...

When we talk about essential oils we often don’t think of the emotional outcomes associated with the aroma. We hear a lot about the amazing support they provide our bodies, but sometimes the power of smell is overlooked. Yesterday, I went to a Holiday Bazaar and set up my doTERRA table. People would walk by, some not sure what essential oils ar...

If you're not familiar with essential oils and not quite sure what they are, it can be a little confusing with all of the information and hype out there. Some of it being accurate and some of it not. So how do you know what is true? I didn't know much when I first got started with doTERRA, but I did my research beforehand and one aspect that I love the most...

I felt like I had to sit down and write this blog because I come across people every day who I believe think that I am selling essential oils because they smell good, it’s fun to have a diffuser and concoct different recipes and it’s trendy. Honestly, I really didn’t know what essential oils were just 3 years ago and the only reason I star...

Just like last summer, I have listed some of my favorite summer 'essentials' below that I hope you will ...

More and more every day you hear about or see posts on social media of people, like me, launching or totally rocking some type of home-based business. Whether it is a product or service, a direct sales or network marketing company, it is happening all around us and in the next five years approximately 80 million people will be engaging in this entrepreneuri...

OK, so it usually goes like this. It’s January 1st…. a new year. You’re all psyched. New Year, new goals, fresh start, hopes, dreams, aspirations. You get the drift. Then life continues, days get lost and those goals and aspirations fade away into everyday madness. You find yourself back in the same grueling grind and before you know it, ...

I am REALLY excited to introduce this NEW OIL which is AVAILABLE NOW! COPAIBA! So, what is Copaiba!??? Copaiba is NOT from the cannabinoids CBD oil or THC. It is from the plant cannabinoid BetaCaroPhyllene. It is a unique blend of doTERRA's consisting of 4 different species and is extracted from copaiba trees in the Amazon rainforest. It i...

Have you ever gone through something in life and wondered why you are going through it or feel majorly inconvenienced? Well, when I learned about Hurricane Irma’s possible arrival to the whole state of Florida, zoning in on the east coast, that is exactly how I felt. I thought in my mind, “Seriously? We just went through this crap last year wit...

One thing I hear a lot when I am sharing my all-natural solutions is “I can’t afford it” or, “I’ll have to wait until I can afford it.” And my answer is, “How can you afford not to?” Do you wait to feed yourself? Do you wait to buy toilet paper? Do wait to buy toothpaste? Do you wait to buy shampoo? Do you wait to buy detergent? Seriou...

It's Halloween! Happy Halloween! I love Halloween and always enjoy putting on a mask and giving out candy to all the kids in the neighborhood. However, I feel like I am not ready for Halloween this year. At the beginning of this month we had to deal with Hurricane Matthew....well, needless to say, that took 2 weeks out of our lives. Everything that is in...
