raci Kennebeck likes free things.
Once she saw that dōTERRA
essential oils actually worked, as
opposed to the other brands she’d
tried in her doula practice, she enjoyed
buying them on a discount and getting
a free product of the month. When
she helped one of her doula friends

enroll, she was surprised when she got
a check in the mail. She says, “All I did
was help her get the oils she wanted at
a discount, and I got a check for that.
The light went off in my head.”
At first, Traci’s only goal was to get her
oils for free. Then she got a call from
Romi Clark, her upline five levels above
her, inviting her to participate in their
team’s Silver challenge. Traci agreed
to give it a try and today is grateful
Romi took the time to pay attention
to someone so far down her leg. “If it
wasn’t for her I wouldn’t be doing this.
She taught me a lesson that has stuck
with me, and now I make sure to stay in
contact with my entire downline. There
are no limits to who I can help, because
I know I wouldn’t be here if someone
hadn’t done that for me.”
Convention was a big turning point for
Traci’s business. After watching Romi
walk the red carpet, the whole team

Child Birth: “No one ever says, ‘I had a baby and it was a
wonderful, great experience,’ because they don’t want to
brag. The only stories you hear about child birth are, ‘It
was awful, and I had this complication,’ and so women are
terrified to give birth. That’s our fault as women. We need
to be more open about our good child birth experiences.
We’re working in the birthing community to get more
positive stories out there.”
Diamond Club: “With Diamond Club, it’s the same thing.
The only stories I heard about Diamond Club when I first
started dōTERRA were that it’s awful, it’s super stressful,
and it makes you cry. That was my only knowledge about
it. So, when someone invited me to do it, I told them I
wasn’t the type of person to get involved in that kind of a
competition. It was hearing about the travel reimbursement
that convinced me to give it a try, and obviously I made the
right decision.”
