TIME MANAGEMENT IS KEY
hen Heather Wade was first
W introduced to dōTERRA, she was already heavily involved in another network marketing business, but was interested in using the essential oils. So, she enrolled and learned how to use them. She was still loyal to her original company, so she sent any referrals she got out to other people she knew in dōTERRA.
At some point, Heather started using her essential oils more than she was using the product from her business. She realized her heart was no longer in her current company. But, she thought it was crazy to walk away from a large, successful business just because of that, so she kept doing the bare minimum for another year and a half. She says,“ Finally, I realized I was not serving me, my family, or the women I’ m trying to help with how I was running it. So, I made my decision to be done.”
Heather had worked as a business coach for Amy Walker for three years. Two days after Heather gave up her previous business, Amy contacted her and said she had a new opportunity for her. Amy’ s client, Presidential Diamond Jill Winger, was looking for a new leader for one of her struggling legs, and Amy thought Heather would be a great fit. Heather talked to her husband, Aaron, and with Jill, and decided to take the opportunity. A little over a year ago, she took on an existing team that needed her help.
At first, Heather was concerned that she had never taught an oil class and might not know enough about the product to be a leader. She says,“ But, they didn’ t need me to come in and be their oil expert. They needed me to be their mentor and coach them in those key areas that are important for building a business. I was able to reengage

and enliven them.” In the process, she reached Diamond.
Her mission is to teach women that they should be in business and give them the confidence to be successful. She says,“ I’ m really tired of the statistic of women who start network marketing businesses, try it for a while, and it doesn’ t work. Women have the desire and the passion, but they need the skills in leadership, marketing, sales, and systems to go forward and do it.” She doesn’ t want women to blame their business for everything going wrong in their lives and relationships, but rather be able to say that their business is the reason why they have time to be with their family and enjoy their lives.“ dōTERRA has changed my life because it’ s part of my mission here on Earth. It’ s brought more women into my circle that I can help be successful.”
TIME MANAGEMENT IS KEY
AVOID BURNOUT.“ You can run a business flying by the seat of your pants, but it isn’ t super effective and you’ re going to burn out. I don’ t like to burn out because I want to have passion in my work, so time management has been key for me.” |
TIME BLOCK.“ I’ m very clear about time blocking. I have clear business times and family times and I hold to those boundaries. Whether I’ m with my family or working in my office, I try to be 100 percent there.” |
LEARN TO SAY NO.“ I don’ t say yes to everything that comes my way. If it doesn’ t fit into my current goals, I have learned how to graciously decline. That doesn’ t mean I can’ t do it later, but right now it’ s not best for my family.” |
INCLUDE THE FAMILY.“ My kids run at a high responsibility level in our home because we all play a part in the business. They have specific jobs that they have to do to help me, including chores and getting their homework turned in on time.” |
BE FOCUSED AND PRODUCTIVE.“ I treat this like a business not a hobby. That means that during the times I’ ve blocked out for the business, I am extremely effective. I focus on incomeproducing activities first and the busy work fills in later.” |
