Alan & Cheryl Waelbroeck
BRAZIL, INDIANA, USA
In Spite of Challenge
“ Getting to Diamond is worth it because the journey itself is good. You are improving yourself as you go, you are making more friendships, and you are making more connections. Your life improves as your business improves.”
When Cheryl Waelbroeck was given an AromaTouch ® Technique by a friend, it was lifechanging for her. In fact, she felt so good afterward that she called her husband, Alan, and told him all about the oils. At the time, Cheryl was a registered nurse working in conditions that were detrimental to her physical health, and she had been praying for an opportunity to leave that job. When dōTERRA came along, she says,“ I knew from the beginning that I was not only going to use dōTERRA, but I was going to share dōTERRA as a business.” It was an answer to prayer.
Alan was very supportive of Cheryl’ s business endeavor, but he thought the oils were more psychological than anything. He says,“ It took me several months of listening to her talk to people and help them find solutions before I started to be more open to the oils and the possibility that they actually might do something. I saw people have good results with the oils again and again, and I eventually came around.” Now, they continue to grow the business together and utilize each other’ s strengths to sustain its growth.
Though Alan and Cheryl have had success in their business, their journey has not been easy. They faced many physical and financial setbacks that had the potential to stop them, but through it all they never quit. Instead of becoming wrapped up in their own challenges, they put their focus on their team and helping others, which pushed them to move past difficult times.
Cheryl says,“ It is important not to let everyday life interfere with your goals and to have a big enough Why when those challenges come.” This has also been true for Alan. He adds,“ You have to focus on what you really want. When struggles come up, you have to deal with those struggles, but not focus on them as if they were permanent. Every struggle is temporary.”
Despite the many challenges they have faced, they know they are where they need to be. They have seen tremendous growth in themselves and have become more financially stable. Alan says,“ This experience has been a very positive one for us— from the products that have helped us, to the relationships we have developed, and finally, to the business we have grown and learned through. I would encourage anybody who is out there and wondering about it to jump in with both feet.”
