JAMAICA INCENTIVE TRIP 2015
Hayley Hobson
Grand Prize Winner, Presidential Diamond
It feels unbelievable to win this honor
for the second year in a row. Emily
Wright challenged me to win it again
and that did it—I couldn’t let her down.
I’m so glad to know that all of my hard
work paid off and that I’ve been able to
share do-TERRA with so many people
over the past two years. It’s always wonderful to have these
opportunities to connect with other amazing leaders in
do-TERRA. I’m able to continue to learn from all of them,
really get to know what works for others, and share what
I’ve been doing to build my business. I love the incentive trip
competition. It is such a generous gift do-TERRA is giving us
just to do what we already love to do.

T
he dōTERRA executive team and 600 Wellness Advocates from the United
States and Canada escaped the winter chill this January in the tropical Montego
Bay, Jamaica. They enjoyed beautiful waterfall hikes, river cruises, cultural
experiences, and local cuisine, as well as the opportunity to give back to the community.
Here, the Grand Prize and four first place winners share their experiences of qualifying for
this incentive trip and sharing their love for dōTERRA:

dōTERRA ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP I MARCH/APRIL 2015
I have never won anything like this
in my life and I am so blessed by the
generosity of this incredible company.
It felt so different to go from mucking
out the chicken coop and dodging goat
turds on my little family farm to basking
in the tropical sun, being waited on,
and having a swim-up suite at an all-inclusive resort. It was
wonderful to spend some much-needed time away with my
husband and to connect with others who are successfully
sharing do-TERRA. I didn’t participate in this to compete. I just
shared essential oils with others and anyone who would listen
to me. I am grateful to everyone who has ever believed in
me and trusted me enough to be empowered with essential
oils. I am so honored to be in this position, leading others to
healthier and more natural solutions.

First Prize Winner, Diamond
It was a huge treat to leave behind
the snow, cold, and responsibilities
in Wyoming to hang out with such
amazing people on the beach. After
winning the trip to Tulum last year, we
knew we had to go again, no matter
what. Last year’s trip was pivotal for
my husband and me. It was in Tulum where we had the
revelation that Diamond and beyond was truly attainable for
us, thanks to time spent with the amazing executive team
and top-level leaders. It was an absolute game-changer in our
do-TERRA journey. Everyone should do whatever they can to
get on these trips, and encourage their team to do the same.
Being able to spend quality time with the executives and
Diamond leaders is such a valuable experience—it’s a surefire
way to boost your confidence.

First Prize Winner, Silver
At the 2014 Tulum trip, I was inspired
by Hayley Hobson, who invited some
of us to her suite to see what it is like to
get the top prize and reminded us that
we all have the potential to achieve so
much more. I said to myself, “I wonder
if I really focused, maybe I could get
the First Prize. How many people could I touch in the process
of achieving that award?” When the time to qualify for this
year’s incentive trip came, I knew I had a chance to help
others better their lives no matter what their issues were, and
I tried to really focus on that. It was about the journey, not the
destination. The prize was a measurement for me to see how
well I was able to touch and help other people. It wasn’t just
a competition. This experience made me even more aware
of my lifelong passion. I already had dreams and goals, but
do-TERRA provided me with a straight path to achieve them.

It feels really good to be recognized
for a year of hard work. We have really
enjoyed the past trips we’ve been on,
and to know you are building your
business at the same time makes the
trip just a bonus. It’s nice on these trips
to be around other do-TERRA Wellness
Advocates that you can collaborate and mingle with. We
know that if you really want to do do-TERRA, you have to
be fully onboard. It has to become a part of your life to be
successful. The trips and conventions are just another aspect
of living do-TERRA all the time. It is the best motivator to build
your business to be able to be around like-minded individuals
who really live do-TERRA and are rewarded because of it. S
