incredibly hard for our family so we can have what we have. This inspired me to now return the favor and create a life where he doesn’ t need to stress about his business, but we can still have the money to continue our lifestyle.”
Even with Dan’ s constant support, it has been a challenge for Holly to balance family with business. She has found that the key is to create time for each.“ I block out family time on my calendar, and I only allow so much time for workshops so I’ m home and present more for my children. I don’ t think there’ s such a thing as‘ balance’— it’ s a constant juggle, and you need to focus your time where it’ s needed at any given moment.” Now that she has reached Diamond, Holly is enjoying more time freedom than ever before.
Looking forward, Holly remains eager to continue sharing the benefits of the oils and to see her team advance as well. She says,“ I love the idea of inspiring others to turn to nature to care for themselves and their loved ones. I love to inspire others to live healthy, positive lives, and to nourish themselves with natural remedies. I also cannot wait until my team is earning money like I am and enjoying the freedom for their families that we are. For me, it’ s passion meets purpose, which is the perfect combination for a thriving business.”

STAY POSITIVE.“ Jump straight in and face your fears. Maintain open communication with your partner, and together have a positive mindset each and every day. Do not think for a moment that you can’ t be successful in this business— anyone can do it if they want to.”
INSPIRE YOUR TEAM.“ Instead of trying to push my team to grow, I try to set an example, and hopefully they replicate it. I’ ve loved what I’ ve done since the moment I started building my business, and everyone can see that. Rather than motivating my team, I inspire them.”
BE TRANSPARENT.“ Always be transparent, and do not compare yourself to others. Don’ t be afraid to talk about ranks and money. It’ s real, and anyone can achieve it. I feel there’ s a stigma around talking about money, but it’ s a very real part of why people build a dōTERRA business.” doterra. com 37
