Karol’s sister, Elizabeth Copeland, took a next-day flight to share
her newfound oils with Karol. Another sister, Lois Lane, flew up the
coast from Florida to help Karol teach her first class, even though
she is Karol’s crossline and received no financial benefit. “This is
the culture we want to continue fostering on our team,” says Karol.
“A culture of loving others and helping everyone succeed.” Make it
a priority to love your family and help them succeed.

Initially, the Watkins found Staten
Island a cold market for them. So,
Karol set out to make new friends by
becoming a client at a salon and a
Pilates studio. “The owners allowed
me to teach classes, and this created
a new warm market.”
Another problem was trying to
support a team spread across several
states. “We believe education is how
we best support our teams and
increase retention. With the help of
our leaders, we created videos for ‘Oil
Camp’ and started teaching weekly
Zoom classes. This pushed us out of
our comfort zones, but it also helped
us connect with our global team and
create a team culture.”
Karol’s hardest challenge, though, was
“limited time and the limiting belief
that if I was in ministry, I could not be
in sales! I realized that I could focus on
education and allow people to choose
for themselves what would best serve
their families. Even though we are in
direct sales, we are doing so much
more. We are changing lives! God has
given us a greater platform to help
people with both their physical needs
and their spiritual needs.”
