Hi Friends!
Welcome to my Essential Oils Page! Over the past couple of months I’ve become so passionate about essential oils and their role in our family’s wellness and I thought it would be a good idea to have this page on my blog in case you guys were interested too! Here I’ll answer some FAQs, provide some resources and share a little about our wellness journey. If any of this sounds like something you want to learn more about you can always reach out to me with any questions!
GETTING STARTED
Young Living makes it super easy to dive in to essential oils with their Premium Starter Kit. There are so many different oils and I had no idea where to start. I love how the Premium Starter Kit has 12 of their most popular and commonly used essential oils so that you can try out a really wide range right off the bat. It also comes with your choice of a diffuser which is amazing because diffusing is such a simple and easy way to get acquainted with your oils. The PSK is also the best value and significantly less expensive than ordering all of the oils and diffuser individually!
Here’s what you get (US oils differ slightly in Canada): Your PSK will include 12 bottles of oils :: Lavender 5-ml, Peppermint Vitality 5-ml, Lemon Vitality 5-ml, Citrus Fresh Vitality 5-ml, Frankincense 5-ml, Thieves Vitality 5-ml, Valor 5-ml, Raven 5-ml, DiGize Vitality 5-ml, PanAway 5-ml, Peace & Calming 5-ml and Stress Away 5-ml.
MEMBERSHIP
Purchasing a starter kit (any starter kit - there are a couple other amazing ones to choose from depending on what you’re looking for and you can check them out HERE) allows you to become a member. This DOES NOT mean you need to sell oils or do the business in any capacity. Becoming a member means is that on top of your Starter Kit, diffuser and some fun extras you’ll also get 24% off of all future purchases with Young Living. I think of it kind of like a Costco membership (only way more fun).
This made a lot of sense for me personally. When I saw the wide range of non-toxic products I could purchase through Young Living like laundry detergent, toothpaste, household cleaner, bath bombs, baby products etc, I knew we’d really benefit from getting that discount on products we purchase regularly anyway.
COMMUNITY
In addition to what Young Living includes, you'll be joining an amazing community and team (my team!) of other inspiring and amazing people on their wellness journeys. I’ll personally reach out via email welcoming you and sharing some helpful resources so you can get started with using your oils. You'll also be included in our team's private Facebook groups that include knowledge, resources, and fun classes to learn more about oils so you can fall in love with them too. It is the best support and encouragement and such a HUGE part of why I decided to choose Young Living for our family. I want you to use and LOVE your oils, and I will be there helping you and answering questions so that they’ll never sit there collecting dust.
I also love sending snail mail so expect a fun package in the mail with a fave rollerball or two, some cute resource cards, DIY recipes and more :)
FAQ
If I'm signing up as a wholesale distributor, do I have to sell oils?
Absolutely not! Signing up as a wholesale distributor is simply to enjoy the 24% discount - you're not required to sell anything. You order your Premium Starter Kit, order additional oils and product as you run out or want to try them, no strings attached!
What makes Young Living superior to other oil companies or what's sold at health food/grocery stores?
The one thing that caught my eye and pushed me to get started with Young Living was their Seed to Seal Promise. From the moment they plant the seed to when the bottle is sealed, the oils aren't compromised or manipulated. What you're buying elsewhere could be marketing 100% pure when in fact companies are only required to put 5% of the actual essential oil to be labeled that way. YUCK!
Another reason I love Young Living is the community I knew I was being welcomed into. I always thought I was being careful about the products and chemicals we used in our home but after learning a lot about greenwashing and the negative effects the products we were using were having on our family I wanted to learn more from others on the same journey as me. I love accountability and community and knew that connecting with others and having people available to chime in and answer any questions would be so valuable to me.
What does it mean being on a team?
The "team" you choose to sign up with REALLY MATTERS. Who you sign up with will be your person for all things oily. Questions you have, tips and ideas and more. Also if you do ever decide to pursue the business side of Young Living, your team will be there to motivate you, lead you and lift you up! By signing up with me, you’ll automatically join an incredible team (the fastest growing in all of the company) and I'll just be your person to support you every step of the way.
If it's a membership, what's the monthly cost after I purchase the Premium Starter Kit?
There isn't one! All that is required to obtain the 24% discount on your oils is to purchase at least $50 during a 12 month calendar year. That's it! It’s as simple as buying Thieves and Lavender. Two oils I use daily to support our sleep and immune systems year round.
How do you use oils?
Gosh - so many ways! We love diffusing to set the mood in our home and have it always smelling great. I use oils to support sleep for our whole family, make non-toxic DIY products, make rollerballs for friends and family to support all kinds of things, wear as perfume, clean my home without chemicals, the list honestly goes on and on! I was sure when I bought my starter kit, I’d probably only ever diffuse them but within weeks these products became a staple in so many areas of our lives.

If you're looking to start your journey to wellness, ORDER HERE and ensure 23653095 is showing in both the Enroller and Sponsor ID fields so that you’re included on my team! Make sure you're signing up as a member; this will allow you to enjoy 24% off all purchases on your oils.
To begin, you'll choose your Starter Kit. I always recommend clicking YES to Essential Rewards which is a monthly products box that you will be able to customize each month and cancel anytime you want. When you say YES to Essential Rewards you automatically receive a $10 product credit and reduced flat-rate shipping. You can cancel at anytime - but I say always click yes at least for the $10 credit (that’s like a bottle of orange essential oil free). You can change and customize what comes in your monthly box, the date it processes and when/if you want to cancel at anytime.
