Wendy thought essential oils just smelled good and did nothing else, but she visited the booth. Corinna and Joy put oils all over her and Wendy noticed a difference in the crispness and the purity of the smell. By the next day, she felt such an effect that she decided to enroll. She had her first class within 10 days at the chiropractic office, and received a check the following week that paid for her first kit. Wendy says, “It wasn’t create a movement.” Her husband, Alessio, is a chef, and at the time was working long hours at a restaurant. She says, “It was challenging. I felt like I never saw him. I was always by myself at night and I knew I didn’t want this forever.” She made the goal to reach Diamond so she could bring him home from his grueling work in the restaurant business. She reached Silver in six months and Gold a few months after that. with essential oils. Wendy says, “It was so empowering to be able to say, ‘You don’t have to go back there if you don’t want to.’ I would have never been able to be in a position like that if it weren’t for our income with dōTERRA.” Now, she feels like she has complete control over her life and she has the space to give to others. She says, “When we’re so busy stressing about ourselves and our finances, how can we really be present in helping others?

We can only see what’s right in front of us, but what about the things that are beyond? We have to have faith that it’s all going to work out and you can do whatever you want as long you believe that you can.” “My son, Giorgio, has been such an incredible support. He’s 12 years old and he comes with me to so many of my classes. I don’t know if I would be able to do as much as I am without him. He makes it easier.” 66 dōTERRA ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP I JULY / AUGUST 2016 HOLD TRAINING EVENTS. “I like to create events where my team members can come and experience self-develop­ment instead of just giving them a book to read and saying we’ll talk about it later. We work with them, talk about it, practice it, and put it all together.” DO PHYSICAL DEMONSTRATION. “My team did a day out at the barn where they planned their rank goals then we had them get on a horse. A lot of them had never been on a horse, but we led them around and then they spread their arms open and closed their eyes—teaching them to trust in the process.” CREATE AN EXPERIENCE. “We can tell someone what to do, but it’s better if we can create an event where they can actually put those pieces into action and experience it. That can create the belief they need that much faster because they have already had a physical experience with it.” *Results not typical. Average earnings are less.
