My journey into essential oils + Young Living + My “Why?”

Jun 20, 2020 · by Erica

The health of my children, husband, and overall healthier household have always been important. I joined Young Living! My hope is to learn to live a healthier lifestyle through essential oils.

I want to experience all the benefits of essential oils!

I know some people may say there are other ways to go about this…just buying what I need or picking some up from a big box store. However, there were some factors that sold me on Young Living…one being their ‘Seed to Seal’ guarantee.

Young Living embraces a rigorous quality control standard to help ensure our products meet strict specifications. Seed to Seal is our set of standards that helps ensure that with every pure essential oil and Young Living product your family uses, you’re enjoying the benefits of our global resources, industry leadership, and over two decades of innovation. The result? A pristine final product that you know has been created with conscientious Sourcing, Science, and Standards—the three pillars of Seed to Seal.

I wanted the whole experience!

My style is to be involved in learning and gaining knowledge! My journey to better health and keeping the well-being of my family at the top of its game will be a whole new growth experience and one i’m eager to begin.

I have battled for 6.5 months along side my daughter struggling with a weak immune system.

She has febrile seizures and a little sickness does a lot to her. We go through about a week each month of fevers, horrible body aches and irritability. It results in the works: blood tests, urine cultures, swabs. Each and every time I get to hear the words, “well, it’s just a virus.”

JUST.A.VIRUS?!?!

It’s my little girl suffering through several seizures each time only to come out weak, sore and exhausted. We endure torture 1 week of every month and each time we continued to hear ‘there’s nothing to do but ride it out’.

Cue that sweet glimmer of hope!

I came across an Instagram mama that just stuck out to me…Diedre from @arethoseyourkids . It started with me watching her IG stories and reading her words. The more I watched the more I became intrigued with her lifestyle and how she monitored everything in their lives! She made the changes necessary for her family and did what I had always wanted to do. Somewhere along the way I got caught up in ‘Commercial Convenience’ and opted into easy products. Organic, clean, and natural products seemed to always make their way into my home but never my heart. They never felt right or even clean.

Meet Diedre! She is a mama of 3 and wife of a farmer living her best life!
She is also a Georgia girl like me!
One day I submitted a question to a Q&A on her insta-stories and we instantly made a connection.

Diedre sent me messages in voice recording form, which was new. To hear a mama talk about helping your children…really hearing their voice and their emotion behind their words is game changing! Everything felt as though someone sliced me open and poured my feelings on the floor because there was so much love and care from her voice

I’d come to my ends wit with how to help my daughter and it was like she was saying, I got you mama!

I needed that personal connection and the one on one conversation full of hope that there were better options out there! Together, we discussed what could be used to help my daughter, her experiences, and what I could do.

The Premium Starter kit comes with so many wonderful essential oils, blends, samples of products, and of course a gorgeous diffuser to use at home for all the right oils!



Off I went to order my Premium Starter Kit and learn about what I can do for my children and for my family to create a better home!

Stay tuned for my discoveries and hopefully what I learn can help someone else going through the same trials. I will be diving in to oils in hopes of finding ways to help my 6-month-old son with his Eczema as well!

You can follow along for more in-depth content through my instagram.

My next order contains these products:
*Eucalyptus Radiata Essential Oils to add to my showers for some relaxation and self care
*Thieves Household Cleaner to begin transitioning our household cleaners
*Seedlings Calm Essential Oil Blend to diffuse at night for my son in hopes to help him relax more before bed

I am thrilled and excited for the next chapter in health! Here’s to a new journey filled with oils and hope…

Lots and lots of hope!!!

Thank you to my enroller and new friend Diedre! You were definitely a sounding board and the right amount of compassion. I truly needed to hear your words!
Follow Diedre in her journey with oils and clean living!
