well they worked. She went to Julianne’s
dōTERRA class, and by the end, was ready
to get involved with both the product and
the business.
At the time, her husband, Berny, was
working three different jobs as a police
officer and going to school. Janet says,
“He was doing a really good job supporting

plugged into that gives you the direction of success, then you’re just going to be putting a lot of
heart and soul out there and not going anywhere.”

Despite her initial goal, Janet soon realized
that she couldn’t force her husband to come
home and help her with the dōTERRA
business. She says, “I realized that I needed
to be 100 percent in with what I was doing,
whether Berny wanted to do it with me
or not. I needed to stop having my own
expectations and give him the choice
to do what he wanted, whatever that
was.” Janet instead told Berny that she
