NEW dōTERRA DIAMOND

THE BIGGER WHY
W hen Daphne Clark awoke from
a dream about dōTERRA , she knew she needed to dive in . Her close friend , Kimberley , had been reaching out to her for months about the business opportunity associated with dōTERRA , but as a church pastor , Daphne had resisted due to uncertainty about how network marketing would fit with her church work . While she had been using the oils for some time and was especially impressed with the dōTERRA CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade ® standard , she was unsure about the business aspect .
That morning , Daphne told her husband that she felt both excited and nervous , and that she wanted to look at the business opportunity again . She also received another email from Kimberley that same day with more information than she had seen before about the earning potential of dōTERRA . From there , Daphne committed to the business .
When she started out , Daphne was already busy with her work as a church pastor and as a mother of four , plus she owned a sewing studio . With Kimberley ’ s help , Daphne got off to a fast start and reached Silver in six weeks . While she has loved the journey , Daphne has had to make difficult sacrifices along the way . “ I gave up my sewing school , which is one of the hardest things I ’ ve ever done ,” Daphne says . “ I couldn ’ t do everything at the same time . I loved teaching and interacting with kids at my sewing studio , but I gave it up to pursue my bigger Why . My husband and I work with a mission in Zimbabwe that focuses on orphaned children , so I took my desire to love and teach kids to that work .”
Daphne ’ s Why is not the only global aspect of her dōTERRA journey ; her team is located all over . “ I ’ ve built my frontline in different countries , and my leaders aren ’ t all local . I build globally , and my team here in Calgary is very small compared to other parts of Canada , Australia , and the United States . I ’ m very grateful for Zoom chats , and now I can fly to go visit my team members more often .”
With a team spread across the globe , Daphne has felt the stresses that can come with building a business . In the first few months particularly , she sacrificed time with her husband , Darren , but he has been incredibly supportive . As a church pastor , he has watched Daphne grow with dōTERRA and has implemented some of the ways she has learned to be a better leader in his church work . She says , “ The skills I ’ ve learned also empower me to better help people at church . This business has ignited a passion in my husband for doing his ministry work differently . It ’ s been a fun journey .” In addition to her husband , Daphne feels blessed to be supported by her children and a strong upline .
With a growing global team and an eye set on helping children both locally and abroad , Daphne is ready to continue moving forward . “ The opportunity I have to help people and pour into children makes me the happiest person ever .”

GIVE PERSONALIZED
FOLLOW-UP “ I love people , so I love meeting over a cup of coffee or tea for a wellness consult . However , because I have such a global team , that isn ’ t possible with everyone . If they ’ re in a different part of the world , I use Zoom to make sure I can followup with them .”
STRUCTURE PROPERLY “ When I started out , I had amazing mentoring from my friend , Kimberley , who is now a Blue Diamond . She helped with my structure and made sure my frontline is very clean . Find builders , place them , and build down . Follow the steps provided by your upline — it works .”
PURSUE YOUR WHY “ You can ’ t do everything at the same time . I had to give up things I loved in order to give my dōTERRA business the time it required to be successful , but it was ultimately to pursue my bigger Why of helping children in Africa . In this way , it ’ s a very fruitful journey .”
