NEW dōTERRA DIAMOND Megan Spoelstra “In all of this, my husband and I gave ourselves permission to dream bigger, and we feel we are just getting started.” HAMILTON, ONTARIO, CAN A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY L ike many other Wellness Advocates, Megan Spoelstra started her dōTERRA journey as a product user who was adamant that she would never do the business. When she did agree to try the business, she called her upline after one month and told them she was quitting. But something about dōTERRA kept pulling Megan back—and finally, after attending an inspiring boot camp, she knew she was here to stay. Megan was introduced to dōTERRA during her fourth pregnancy, and she immediately loved the oils and wanted to share them. She explains, “When I fall in love with something and it works, I love to spread the news.” This has continued to drive her dōTERRA business—simply sharing her love for the oils. She is also passionate about sharing how they have helped her family. Megan and her husband have four children, and the oils are part of their everyday life. As they have discovered more uses for the oils, Megan and her family have discovered that one of the best ways to share is to use the oils. “The most effective tactic I have found is simply making the oils part of who I am and my family’s lifestyle. Having four young kids has allowed me to connect to moms everywhere we go. When someone asks me what I’m using or how they can get some, I love telling them what I do and why.” Megan and her husband are truly grateful for the ways dōTERRA has changed their family. Their children love the oils, and Megan says, “They literally use the oils and products from when they wake up to when they go to sleep. I love being able to teach them to follow their instincts, listen to what their bodies need, and be intentional in caring for themselves.” even more passionate about helping dōTERRA has also brought financial blessings to Megan’s family. Her husband was recently able to take a new job that is closer to home, which also allows Megan more flexibility in building her business. While Megan is grateful for all of the changes she has seen in her own life, she is now dōTERRA and how many will continue others succeed. “I love my team and those who have partnered with me. My Why now is to lead and guide other women to a place where they are living their best versions of themselves.” In particular, Megan loves sharing dōTERRA with other mothers. She explains, “As moms, we sometimes pour so much into our families that we tend to lose ourselves. Through dōTERRA, I have learned how important self-care is and to give myself permission to do the things I love.” Looking forward to an even greater vision for the future, Megan is passionate about serving on a larger scale. “I can see how many lives have been touched thanks to to be touched. This inspires me, and it’s deeply ingrained in why I do this. I want to continue to be open to all that God is calling our family to, and I feel He reveals bits and pieces of my Why to me as it continues to evolve and deepen.” ENCOURAGING WORDS BE WILLING TO JUMP IN. “If you want to do this, don’t wait until you have all of your ducks in a row. Don’t wait for it to be perfect. Follow your passion and what your soul is craving, and the rest will follow. Be willing to jump in, and be open to change.” 44 dōTERRA ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP I I NOVEMBER NOVEMBER / / DECEMBER DECEMBER 2017 2017 SURROUND YOURSELF WITH SUPPORT. “Don’t allow others’ insecurities or negative opinions to become your truth.
