from corporate America to being
a stay-at-home mom, she found she fit
naturally into the niche of the health
and wellness world. As she strove to
help her own family through nutrition
and natural living, she became really
passionate about educating other
moms out there about what she had
discovered. She became a health and
wellness coach, and soon after that

introduced her to dōTERRA, Alicia was
so overwhelmed by everything else that
she didn’t pay much attention. Later,
when she had a need for it in her home,

essential oils, and she saw how quickly
they made a difference. She says, “I’m

I’ve always been good at what I’ve done
in my career, but only this has made me
feel good at the end of the day about
what effort I’m putting toward others
and their needs.”

“Being a mom is what
made me have the most
success, because it
made me want to share,
educate, and empower
other moms.”
