The Tapestry Unfolds: How a Little Business is Making a Big Impact

It was two and a half years ago when I decided to take a leap of faith and start my “little” Young Living wellness business. Shortly afterward, I had a conversation with my friend and business partner, Christie, in which I told her that I felt at my core that this business was going to be about so much more than oils. She enthusiastically agreed and validated all that my spirit was sensing. I can still see that night. I sat curled on my floor while we chatted via the phone for well over an hour about what we felt like God might be doing now and into the future.

Just a few weeks ago, Christie and her husband packed up their family and their Colorado home and moved to Dubai to realize a dream that was planted years ago. And today, Christie’s YL business is supporting that dream.

Another precious leader of mine has been working with a woman in South Eastern Europe who runs a safe house for girls who have been rescued from sex trafficking. This woman is using essential oils like SARA and RELEASE to help these girls begin the process of recovering from the emotional trauma of their captivity and abuse. These girls, some as young as 12 or 13 years old, are also beginning to learn the essential oils business so they can cultivate an independent income and begin to sustain themselves. This is eternal HOPE and REDEMPTION and RESCUE happening right here within my little essential oils team.

Then there’s another precious leader who just a year ago escaped a violent domestic abuse situation of which we can hardly fathom. She and her children got out with nothing more than the clothes on her back. Her oils business, which worked even when she was incapable of doing the work herself, provided her with the means to crawl out of a pit and begin to rebuild her life.

And still there’s my beautiful Aussie friend, who for years was content to be just a mom. Now she’s traveling the world and building an empire that is empowering other women Down Under and helping them choose natural wellness for their families. She’s “just a mama who got seriously blessed with some of the best things on this side of eternity: incredible friendships and a community that lifts all boats with its tide; abundance in new health; more family time; and, provision beyond belief.”

These are just SOME of the stories of the people on my beautiful team … a tapestry of different personalities and experiences and geographical locations … all woven into the fabric of this Young Living business. This IS about so much more than oils! THIS is literally a PICTURE of that conversation I had two years ago now coming to fruition.

And this is JUST THE START! I cannot wait to see how this tapestry continues to unfold! If you long to be a part of something bigger. If you’re desperate for community, a place to belong. If you’ve been wanting to try essential oils and a natural-health lifestyle but don’t know where to start … then this team of doers and dreamers and life-changers would love to have you! Get started by learning more or grabbing a starter kit here. If you have questions or you’d like to be added to our Facebook group for more information, feel free to leave me a comment.

The tapestry is still being woven, and there’s plenty of room for you.
