THE PERSON YOU ’ LL BECOME
Another part of her motivation to share stemmed from thinking about her children ’ s generation and their lack of natural health opportunities . In a world that is getting further from holistic care , Kim wanted to share the oils so that generations to come could have something to rely on to manage their health naturally .
Now , Kim is fully invested in the business and shares the oils with anyone and everyone . Kim ’ s vision is also upheld by her husband , Jerry , who has been a constant support throughout her dōTERRA experience and is now working fulltime in the business with her . Jerry says , “ It has been an absolute privilege and honor joining my wife in this business . Not only do I genuinely believe in the products , but this experience has brought us even closer as a couple .”
Jerry and Kim live their lives in a way that is true and unique to them , and they focus on helping a variety of people embrace themselves and the oils that have made such a difference to them . Kim says , “ We have a really colorful lifestyle , and it ’ s been rewarding to be able to reach many people who didn ’ t have a lot of exposure to essential oils or who didn ’ t think that they were deserving of this way of living . We ’ re working really hard to break the mold and bring as many socio-economic classes , as many cultures , and as many different types of people to the benefits of natural wellness .” The people they have reached out to over time have come together to form a strong team of individuals who are willing to use their strengths to better the world and support one another . Kim says , “ I am most proud of my team , and even though we are at this rank , I truly believe that I am not a Diamond , but that I have a Diamond team .”
“ Pursuing this business gives you happiness in the beginning and end of every day because you know that the work you ’ re doing is something that is going to impact the world for the better .”

THE PERSON YOU ’ LL BECOME

STRONG . “ Nobody tells you when you start sharing dōTERRA that it is a catalyst that can bring you to your true calling . All of the sudden , you ’ re not just using essential oils , but you ’ re becoming a better person . You ’ re more loving , you ’ re more accountable , you ’ re more trustworthy , and you begin to let go of the things that don ’ t serve you anymore for a higher purpose .”
Since joining dōTERRA , Jerry and Kim have seen great growth in those they share oils with , their team , and especially themselves . Kim says , “ I am financially contributing to my family . I have amazing friends who care about helping others as much as I do . I ’ m stepping into a realm that I ’ ve always been really passionate about . I just feel like I ’ m closer to the best version of myself than I ’ ve ever been .”
