ut frankly, Cindy Landes started her
dōTERRA journey with reluctance.
A friend sent Cindy some essential oils
in the mail, but Cindy didn’t use them at
first. This friend later contacted Cindy
to ask her to host an essential oils class,
which Cindy agreed to. The class proved
to be a turning point in Cindy’s view
of dōTERRA oils; during this class, she
learned about the oils and was especially
intrigued by the benefits of Frankincense.
After using the oils with her family and
seeing incredible results, Cindy was
committed. She recalls, “I wanted a
natural solution, and these oils were
just what I needed. I had planned to
be a closet user, but once I saw how
effective they are, I realized I needed
to tell people about them.” Although
Cindy was passionate about sharing
the benefits of essential oils with
others, she remained adamant that she
wouldn’t build a business.
Cindy’s reluctance to dive into the
business opportunity largely stemmed
from her limiting beliefs about herself.
She explains, “I kept comparing myself
to my leader who had enrolled me, and
I knew I couldn’t do things the same
way. I had never run a business before,
and my personality is so different from
my leader’s. I was 50 years old when I
was introduced to dōTERRA, and I didn’t
believe my life could be anything other
than what it was. I didn’t know how to
dream, and I constantly thought of what
I was lacking.” that would allow her to be at family
The moment that changed it all for Cindy
was when she realized that her sharing
had already changed other people’s lives.
“I finally understood that I could do the
business using my own strengths, and I
could stop comparing myself to others. I
could see myself growing and becoming
more confident.” Cindy is grateful for
the personal development she has
experienced thanks to dōTERRA, and she
continues to push herself to grow. His help has allowed her to support her
In the beginning, Cindy’s Why focused
on her family. A mother of six, she
feels strongly about being involved in
her children and grandchildren’s lives.
Her job at the time, however, created
difficulties in traveling to visit her
grandchildren. Cindy saw the possibility
with dōTERRA to create a life of freedom freedom, and time freedom she has
events as she chose. She says, “dōTERRA
has afforded me these opportunities, as
well as many more.” Her family has also
been a great support to her, especially
her husband. While he is not involved
in the business on an every day basis,
he handles the responsibilities at home
while Cindy travels and holds classes.
growing team.
Cindy’s Why has also expanded over time.
“I feel so passionately that everyone needs
to know about essential oils. They need
to know there is an alternative, natural
solution that is simple and effective.”
Looking back on how her life has
changed, Cindy is stunned at the
personal development, financial
gained. One of the most precious
opportunities dōTERRA has given Cindy
is the chance to serve others on a
larger scale. She says, “I’ve always cared
about people and wanted to help them.
With dōTERRA, I have the freedom and
opportunity to do that.”

Develop your Why. Share as much as you can. Be patient.
“Write down and develop your
Why. Figure out why you want to
do the business and what’s driving
you. There will be hard days, and
you need to have your Why to keep
pushing you.” “Hold classes. Share with as many
people as you can. Educate people
on the oils, and let them experience
the oils. Your stories of your
own experiences also help others
to be interested.” “Be patient with yourself and your
business. This isn’t an overnight,
get-rich-quick scheme. It takes
time and discipline. Learn how to
set goals. Dream big and visualize
yourself reaching your goals.”
