“ Remember who you are . Your unique strengths and gifts make magic happen . We ’ re all fire starters of dreams , but if we aren ’ t feeding the flames to achieve our goals , then those flames can dwindle and die . Recognize the light within yourself and help strike the fire within others . Help your leaders reignite the flames in their hearts by reminding them of who they are and how they already influence the world around them .”— Leah Karratti
Leah likes to say she ’ s a friend first and a Wellness Advocate second . “ I have a curious drive to get to know people , understand what their lives are like , and see their hopes and dreams fulfilled ,” she says . “ It ’ s why I care and show up as a friend first .” For Leah , her dōTERRA ® business has been a chance to connect with others and help them reach their full potential .
Leah uses her natural empathy to guide her team during tough times and inspire her leaders to do the same . “ Sometimes , people just need to be reminded of who they are and what gifts they bring into the lives of others ,” she says . “ When they see their own brilliance , they start to realize their dreams can become a reality .” Leah uses her talents as a mentor to do just that .
In one memorable instance , a leader reached out to her after a particularly discouraging call with a team that was struggling to set goals . “ She said her team was falling into old patterns of fear and asked what ideas I had to get them out of their funk ,” Leah says . “ I told her to reflect on a difficult time during her own dōTERRA journey to help her better understand what her team was going through . Then I reminded her that her gifts as a leader could inspire others to believe in themselves and the business again .”
Leah has had plenty of difficult times of her own on her journey . When she first started out , Leah was a teacher . Taking a few months off to head out on the road with Diamond Club was a risk , but one she ’ s so glad she took . “ It was in Diamond Club that I honed my prospecting , teaching , enrolling , and recruiting skills ,” she reflects . “ I learned the most powerful and persuasive tool I have is my story . My life changed . From then on , I wanted to help others experience their own life-changing moment . I wanted to give them hope and a better solution .”
Leah believes strongly that staying dedicated to self-improvement is imperative to building a successful business . “ I continue developing myself as a person — not just to become a better leader , but also to become a better me . I noticed quickly that when I stopped focusing on daily success habits like journaling , I slipped back into fear and complacency . The truth is when I feel this way , I ’ ve simply forgotten who I am and how I can make a difference .” So Leah makes sure to journal every day and uses the time to reflect and gain wisdom from past experiences . “ My journal entries have helped me to better mentor and strategize with my team leaders and grow my business more effectively .”
Building a business has enriched Leah ’ s life in ways she didn ’ t expect going in . “ It started with prayer and a burning desire to do more in this world . What I received was more than an answer to prayer . So many wishes were fulfilled : improved health , strengthened connections with friends — old and new — the tools to help those close to me in need of additional financial support , and even an opportunity to build a school with the dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation ® . I want to keep sharing dōTERRA so others can receive those blessings as well .”
