Kara Hanks ’ s first experience with dōTERRA essential oils was nothing short of remarkable . As she was experiencing a health problem during a chiropractic seminar , Kara was offered Melissa oil by two chiropractors . Within minutes , the discomfort she had been wrestling with for over 24 hours began to subside . Kara immediately purchased an Every Oil Kit and enrolled as a Wellness Advocate . “ It was the best investment of my life . I would definitely do it over again .”

From there , Kara decided to bring the oils into her home . She had recently gone through a difficult divorce , and her children were struggling , especially her son . In just a few days , Kara noticed an emotional change in him that opened a relationship that had been closed for years . Now , Kara ’ s family uses essential oils every day for both physical and emotional support .
Because of the incredible results Kara had seen in herself and her family , she couldn ’ t help but share her story and the oils with others . As the owner of an energy healing and nutrition practice , Kara began to share the oils with her clients and use them in energy sessions — and soon , her clients wanted to know how they could purchase the oils for themselves . “ At that point , I actually didn ’ t know how to help others acquire dōTERRA products . I had to call my enroller and ask what to do . About a month after first getting my oils , I scheduled my first two classes , and I ’ ve never looked back .” In addition to help from her upline and dōTERRA family throughout her journey , Kara is grateful to have the support of her children , her significant other , Mark , and her parents .
With a full-time energy healing and nutrition practice , Kara has found it challenging at times to organize her time . While she has great time management and multitasking skills , she desired something better that would give her more balance . Her dōTERRA business

FINDING HER PATHWAY

has given her the financial and time freedom to build both her business and her practice into what she has envisioned . “ dōTERRA came into my life at a time when I was seeking greater balance and I had a desire to have more quality time . Everyone has the same amount of time in life , and it ’ s how you use it that determines whether you leave a legacy ; I was seeking greater consciousness and presence . Now I have quality time with my children , and I have goals to bring my family into the business . I also have more time to create the practice I want . It has always been a heart-centered business , and dōTERRA has allowed me the freedom to make it into something that was beyond my imagination .”
Kara looks forward to the future of her amazing journey with dōTERRA . “ I simply want to continue sharing and discovering new ways the oils can find their ways into people ’ s lives . I believe that every family should have access to them and use them , and I want to be part of that .”
