NEW dōTERRA DIAMONDS

t was a strange and unexpected
turn of events that led Mark and
Helen Shaw to essential oils. Mark had
been working in the building industry
for 16 years when he was in a work
accident that left him with intense
pain that greatly affected his working
abilities. For a year, he struggled with
this pain and the side effects of his
medication, eventually costing him his
business. It was during this time that
Helen decided they both needed a
break, and she booked flights for them
to visit a random spot on the other
side of Australia.
The day they arrived at their vacation
destination, Helen noticed a flyer for
an essential oils class and felt drawn to
it. Without hesitation, Helen attended
the class. Natalie Goddard was the
presenter. Helen says, “At the first sniff
of Wild Orange oil, I knew that it was
something unique, and I was immensely
drawn to the company ethos and the
integrity of the process of producing the
product in its purest form.” That night,
Helen took home a sample of Deep
Blue ® and gave it to Mark to try. This
little packet became the answer to their

prayers as it helped Mark sleep better
than he had in over a year. But this little
miracle was only the first of the many
essential oil wonders they experienced.
From then on out, they were dedicated
to dōTERRA. Helen says, “The immediate
hope and positive outcome with
the essential oils and supplements
empowered me to honor the choice
to be all-in. I put many hours into
researching essential oils, dōTERRA
as a company, and the production
processes. I was eager to have all the
answers and to deliver the message in
a professional manner.” Though Helen
was working full time in Family and
Children’s Services and maintaining
a part-time practice on the side, she
learned to make time for sharing
dōTERRA and set her sights on a new
dream—Founders Club. After much
hard work, Helen and Mark became
Australian Founders and began
pioneering the way for dōTERRA
essential oils in the Pacific region.
Today, Mark and Helen have paved the
way for many in their area to embrace
the benefits and lifestyle of natural
S O U N D
living through essential oils. They have
traveled to Hawaii, Malaysia, New
Zealand, and all over Australia, touching
numerous lives, especially those on
their team. Helen says, “We now have
four other Diamonds on our team, two
Platinums, eight Golds, and many Silvers.
Witnessing the changes in others as
they realize their dreams, find financial
security, and receive hope for their
health and support with their emotions
is both humbling and inspiring.”
With the help and support of a strong
team and their incredible children, Mark
and Helen have been advocates for
good, and have seen their lives change
for the better with dōTERRA despite
their difficult beginnings. Helen says,
“I do not know just where we would be
now without discovering essential oils
and working with them daily to support
my husband’s, my family’s, and my own
wellbeing. I would not hav e imagined
myself as a public speaker, as a world
traveler, and to come home to financial
freedom with my husband by my side in
this business and our children cheering
us on along the way. It is so much more
than I could have ever dreamed of.”

BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE POWER OF 3. “This leads to promoting loyalty to contacts and to receiving bonuses
for those at the beginning. These three legs will lead people all the way to Platinum. The Power of 3 encourages people
to support their downline, have their own Power of 3, and so on in a duplicable fashion. Naturally, it does not always go
according to plan, so it’s important to not build too many along your frontline, as this will slow down ranking.”

IDENTIFY TWO PEOPLE YOU WANT TO PARTNER WITH. “Then, begin to structure and build there until a third person
shows up. This way you are covering both bases—Power of 3 will show up, and ranking will also be reached.”
3
FIND THE RIGHT SUPPORT. “It is important to have regular support and mentoring with structure and to discuss it with
someone who is familiar with your team, ideally your enroller. The closer the connection, the more understanding they
will have about intimate details, unique personality matches, or best options of support when making a placement decision.”
