business opportunity. Carol was gracious to Natalie, but
didn’t think much about the opportunity. She was thriving
with her current company and didn’t feel compelled to
consider other opportunities.
Not too long after, Carol became engaged in the Mrs. Utah
pageant, which she later won in 2011. She established a
strong friendship with her pageant coach, Cherie Burton,
who shared dōTERRA essential oils with her. Although
both Curt and Carol had relied solely on western medicine,
something wholesome and pure drew them to essential oils.
Despite their growing love for essential oils, they were not
yet committed to the business opportunity.
While on a business trip in Japan, Carol pulled out her supply of essential oils to prepare for a presentation. She was
astonished to discover that all those in attendance were
more interested in the essential oils than in the other product she was there to share! When the realization hit that she
wanted to pursue the dōTERRA business opportunity, she
was immediately worried about breaking the news to Curt.
They had worked to build their business together and have
always been a team. She knew she couldn’t change businesses without his full support.
While Carol was away on her business trip, Curt held down
the fort at home. The first night Carol was away, his children
surprised him by requesting he rub essential oils on their feet.
He obliged and continued to rub essential oils on their feet
every night Carol was away. By the time Carol returned home,
Curt was personally converted to dōTERRA essential oils.
When Carol walked through the door, returning home from
Japan, she sat Curt down ready to break the news to him
that she wanted to pursue the dōTERRA business opportunity. To her immense surprise, he laughed and explained that
he too now had a strong love for essential oils and would
happily support her decision.
Although the Guests had years of experience growing
network marketing businesses, they learned quickly that
dōTERRA is different from everything else they had previously experienced. They came to the realization that with
dōTERRA, it is not all about financial gain. Their mission
and vision shifted dramatically to focus on the importance
of blessing others’ lives through sharing the great choice
they have. “We can choose to live a healthier, happier, more
abundant life,” Carol says. “That choice is a beautiful gift that
if accepted empowers others to take control of their health
and wellness.”
“If you have a dream and a strong vision, you can accomplish anything and everything,” Carol passionately explains.
Helen Keller once said, “The only thing worse than being
blind, is having sight, but no vision.” Carol and Curt Guest
look to Helen Keller as a model of greatness. Reaching
Diamond hasn’t been accidental for the Guests. Once they
captured their vision and purpose with dōTERRA, putting
in the hard work to achieve their goals was the only natural
course of action.
