I Want You!

Nine years ago, I was introduced to something that has transformed my life: essential oils.

Yes I was a big skeptic about them at first, but I now use essential oils on a daily basis in every area of my home, and they have completely changed my life! My medicine cabinet has been completely transformed, and I am now empowered with the tools and knowledge to care for my family.

When I realized I could get free products AND create residual income? I got really excited!

As a result, of my essential oil journey, and passion helping others, I’m ready to help you get started with your essential oil journey as well.

The best part about essential oils is that there is an option for everyone, whether you want to simply enjoy the products for yourself and transform your family’s health (and get free stuff in the process) OR you’re ready to build a team, create residual income, and get out of debt.

If any of these options sound appealing to you, let’s chat!

I’ll help you figure out which option will be the best fit for you, plus you can qualify for some awesome incentives in the process.

I can’t wait to talk to you!

How to Use Essential Oils: Coffee

Coffee essential oil, cold-pressed from roasted coffee beans, is known for its bold, roasted aroma that instantly awakens the senses. Just like a freshly brewed cup, this oil carries a warm, rich scent that can energize and uplift the mood. Diffused, it creates a cozy environment perfect for mornings, study sessions, or creative work. Its aroma has been linked to feelings of alertness and comfort, making it a unique addition to diffuser blends.

In addition to its energizing fragrance, coffee essential oil contains antioxidants that can support healthy-looking skin when used in diluted topical blends. Some people use it in massage oils or body scrubs for its invigorating effect on both skin and spirit. Paired with vanilla, cocoa, or spice oils like cinnamon, coffee essential oil adds depth and richness to blends for both personal care and home fragrance.

Did You Know? Coffee is one of the most traded commodities in the world, second only to crude oil. While most people enjoy it as a beverage, coffee essential oil is a relatively new addition to aromatherapy, prized for its ability to capture the comforting scent of coffee in a concentrated form without caffeine.

Essential Oil Diffuser Blends: Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus diffuser blends are known for their crisp, invigorating aroma that clears the mind and refreshes the air. Often described as sharp and cooling, eucalyptus pairs well with peppermint or rosemary to support focus and mental clarity. Blended with citrus oils like lemon or grapefruit, it brightens the room and boosts energy. Many find its scent especially helpful during seasonal changes, creating a clean and open environment.

When combined with calming oils such as lavender or frankincense, eucalyptus takes on a more soothing character that eases tension and supports deep breathing. Its refreshing qualities can make any space feel like a breath of fresh air, encouraging both relaxation and vitality. Whether used for focus, energy, or comfort, eucalyptus blends bring balance by lifting the mood while keeping the atmosphere cool and clear.

Top Essential Oil Leader

Dr. Russell J. Osguthorpe, M.D., has dedicated more than 30 years to the healthcare field, beginning with his medical education at McGill University, followed by a pediatrics residency at The Children’s Hospital in Denver and a fellowship in pediatric infectious diseases at Washington University in St. Louis. These years of rigorous training laid the foundation for his lifelong commitment to patient care and advancing medical science. His early career was defined by service in children’s hospitals and clinics, where he specialized in diagnosing and treating complex infectious diseases, often caring for the most vulnerable patients.

For two decades, Dr. Osguthorpe played a key leadership role within Intermountain Healthcare, one of the nation’s most respected health systems. There, he served as Pediatric Medical Director and Department Chair at a tertiary care hospital, overseeing care delivery and building large multi-specialty practices. His leadership style emphasized collaboration, safety, and innovation, helping improve both outcomes and systems of care. During this period, he became widely respected as both a compassionate clinician and an effective administrator capable of guiding large medical teams through change.

In addition to his clinical and leadership duties, Dr. Osguthorpe has invested in academic medicine. He continues to serve as an Adjunct Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Utah, where he has contributed to the training of future physicians and published research in pediatric infectious diseases. His studies on antimicrobial therapy in infants, cost and outcomes for febrile infant care, and case-based pediatric medicine reflect his dedication to evidence-based practice. These scholarly contributions demonstrate his dual commitment to improving patient outcomes and advancing medical knowledge for broader application.

In 2019, Dr. Osguthorpe expanded his career into the essential oils field by joining doTERRA as Chief Medical Officer and Vice President of Medical and Scientific Initiatives. This marked the beginning of his formal work with essential oils, adding to his already extensive medical background. At doTERRA, he has led efforts to integrate essential oils into modern healthcare, directing clinical trials, overseeing laboratory research, and supporting the development of evidence-based applications for essential oils. His work helps bridge the gap between traditional medicine and complementary approaches, aiming to validate and expand the role of essential oils in supporting wellness.

Today, Dr. Osguthorpe’s 30-plus years in healthcare encompass a unique blend of clinical expertise, hospital leadership, academic research, and integrative health innovation. Through his role at doTERRA, he continues to shape the future of healthcare by promoting a whole-person approach that includes both conventional medical practices and the use of essential oils. His vision focuses on empowering patients, enhancing preventive care, and fostering research that supports safer, more natural ways to improve health outcomes.

Essential Oils in the Bible

Cedar and Hyssop – Strength and Purity

In 1 Kings 4:33, Solomon is described as speaking of trees “from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall.” These two plants, though vastly different in size and stature, both carried deep meaning in the ancient world and are known for the essential oils they produce. Cedarwood oil, pressed from the towering cedars of Lebanon, was valued for its rich, grounding fragrance and its protective qualities, while hyssop oil, drawn from a small but resilient herb, was treasured for its cleansing and purifying properties.

Together, cedar and hyssop symbolize a divine balance—strength and purity. The mighty cedar represented stability and power, often used in temple construction, while hyssop was used in sacred rituals of purification. Essential oils drawn from these plants remind us that God provides for both body and spirit through His creation. From the lofty trees to the humble herbs, each carries unique blessings, reflecting His wisdom and care for all aspects of life.

A Seed of Secrets and The Rest of the Story

It began in silence — tucked away in tombs beneath the Egyptian sands. Not gold, not frankincense, not even papyrus, but something far humbler: a handful of small, round seeds. These seeds were placed with care beside royalty, not as decoration but as preservation, perhaps even protection. The ancients didn’t have journals full of reasons. They simply knew, as if by instinct, that this seed mattered.

As empires rose and fell, that same seed followed quietly. The Greeks gave it a name. The Romans gave it a recipe. Centuries later, it wandered its way into Eastern Europe, the Middle East, India, and Latin America — adapted in cuisines, stories, and old-world traditions. It was found in market stalls and temple incense, boiled in broths and ground into spice blends. A plant with two distinct gifts: leaf above, seed below. And somehow, both found their place in medicine and mealtime alike.

But it wasn’t until recently that science began to catch up. In laboratory settings, researchers discovered this seed’s essential oil had noteworthy properties. Studies revealed its natural compounds showed antioxidant potential, helping neutralize unstable molecules in controlled environments. Other research observed antimicrobial effects, where the oil inhibited the growth of certain bacteria and fungi on contact. In preclinical models, some scientists even noted a calming influence on mood and behavior — an observation that sparked further study into its aromatic compounds.

At Texas A&M and institutions abroad, researchers explored its bioactive profile, breaking down terpenes and alcohols like linalool and α-pinene — compounds already known for their presence in some of the world’s most calming botanicals. These were not claims for healing, but they were clues, patterns, echoes of what traditional cultures had always believed: that this tiny seed had something more to offer than just flavor.

Today, thanks to careful sourcing programs — like those supported by doTERRA’s Co-Impact Sourcing® — this plant continues its journey. It grows in nutrient-rich soil, harvested by hands that understand patience, distilled into oil by people who respect the process. It’s not mass produced. It’s crafted. And with every drop, there’s a whisper of history, a reminder that the old world may have known a few things we’re just beginning to rediscover.

And now you know the rest of the story. You’ve known it in the kitchen, tasted it in meals, and perhaps even seen its green leafy cousin on your dinner plate. But the seed — the golden round one that yields a complex, peppery oil — has another name. You may call it cilantro when it’s fresh and leafy. Or coriander when it’s round, dry, and full of mystery. Either way, its story isn’t over. Not even close.

How to Use Essential Oils: Cocoa

Cocoa essential oil, derived from the beans of the Theobroma cacao tree, is cherished for its deep, rich, and chocolate-like aroma. Native to Central and South America, cocoa has been celebrated for centuries as both a food and a symbol of love and vitality. In essential oil form, its scent provides comfort and indulgence, often used in blends to create a warm, cozy, and uplifting atmosphere. Diffused, it can evoke feelings of happiness and relaxation, much like enjoying a piece of chocolate without the calories.

Beyond its delightful fragrance, cocoa essential oil is packed with natural compounds that contribute to its soothing and antioxidant qualities. It is sometimes used in skin-care blends for its nourishing properties, helping to support smooth, healthy-looking skin. In aromatherapy, cocoa’s rich scent can help ease stress, encourage relaxation, and even promote a more grounded emotional state. Its luxurious aroma makes it a favorite in romantic blends and self-care rituals.

Did You Know? Ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations revered cocoa as “food of the gods” and used it in rituals, drinks, and trade. Today, while most people know cocoa for chocolate, its essential oil form is less common and highly prized for natural perfumery and emotional wellness blends.
