“ ōTERRA allows us the opportunity to contribute to a cause that is much bigger than we
d
could ever be ourselves.”
Unfortunately, not only was the economic environment
less than ideal for piano repairs, but John was in a terrible
accident that damaged his wrists and made working very
painful. Kalli said, “For the first time, I felt like I needed to
find something to help my family financially.”
Around this time, Kalli received a call from her friend,
Melissa Robertson, who wanted to introduce her to
dōTERRA. John and Kalli were not convinced, but purchased a few oils. They didn’t really use them until their
son came down with a bad earache. Kalli placed a drop of
melaleuca on a cotton ball and gently placed it in her son’s
ear as he slept. By the time he arose the next morning, he
was feeling much better. Both John and Kalli immediately
became intrigued with dōTERRA and essential oils.
However, it wasn’t until Kalli ran into Dave Stirling that
she was sold on dōTERRA’s business opportunity. Kalli
remembers saying to him, “I am gravitating towards your
company and it really bothers me. Can you tell me why?”
He laughed and replied, “I get that a lot.” Dave then went
on to explain that dōTERRA is special and attracts those
who are cause driven. Having studied development in
third world countries, Kalli’s full interest was piqued. She
inquired what their initiative was. He laughed again and
responded that their initiative was coming. It would be a
Healing Hands Foundation which would be built on the
principle of micro-credit. Kalli’s deep passion sensed that
dōTERRA would do a lot of good in the world, and that it
was certainly something she wanted to be a part of.
Kalli went home that evening and told John that dōTERRA
was where they belonged, and that they needed to stop
moving forward with their skin-care line. John remembers, “I was shocked, but once Kalli had explained to me
what she learned I was really excited.” Looking back Kalli
gratefully realizes that dōTERRA has allowed her life to
become a full circle. She explains, “dōTERRA allows us to
create an entrepreneurial, residual income for our family,
all the while contributing to a cause that is much bigger
than we could ever be ourselves.”
Kalli and John feel incredibly blessed to have been able
to build their dōTERRA business together. They agree
that, “nothing has strengthened our marriage and life
like dōTERRA has. Building in dōTERRA can be hard and
trying at times. It has certainly brought out our strengths
and weaknesses, refining us as people and as a couple in
the process.”
