When we came home from our first year of full-time volunteer ministry in 2013, my dad asked what we were going to do next.  His question pertained to paying the bills.   I joked, “Well, dad, we’re in the oil business!”.   Little did I realize how much that joke would morph into reality.

I had, hesitantly, joined Young Living the year before.  I wasn’t convinced essential oils would actually do anything, but I was willing to give the oils a shot because a naturopath doctor I trusted highly recommended them.   By the next year, I was completely hooked, and telling everyone I knew about oils and about the amazing things we were experiencing with them.

It’s like when you find a new favorite restaurant, or clothing store, or movie.  You tell people!   That’s how I felt about the oils.   I couldn’t shut up about them.  I did try really hard not to be obnoxious.  I quietly persisted with the skeptics, and won most of them over! Even my mother!  I was a skeptic at first too, so I understood!   

Then one lightbulb day, the friend who introduced me to the oils posted about checks she was getting from Young Living for sharing the oils.   She was already earning more than our goal budget for the month.  (The first check I remember seeing was for around 5k!)

My thoughts raced something like this… “I love these oils, and I’m already sharing them.  If I can get paid to do what I’m already doing, why not?”

My next step was to read a book called The Four Year Career.  It explained network marketing, and shared success stories from other Young Living people. Young Living has changed their lives from focusing on their monthly financial needs to financial abundance.  They are now living a life not dictated by the constraints of full time jobs. Everything changed for them in how they spend their time and energy.

Best of all, this income is RESIDUAL.  It comes in every month, and you don’t have to work 40 or 50 or 60 hours a week to earn it.  After a few years of consistent work, it just flows.  The idea of residual income appealed to me a LOT.   I could smell 🙂 financial freedom.   And because I saw friends achieving it, I knew I could do it too.  

Three short years later, in early 2016, I am amazed when I see where God has taken us in our Young Living business.   My husband is “retired”, and home to help raise and homeschool our 3 young kids.  Our income is stable, and well within the platinum ranges on the Income Disclosure chart below.  We are in awe and humbled to now financially support missionaries and our local church with as much as we used to earn in a month.  Serious goodness of God.  

2020 Update: Our business has continued to grow.  Our income is now well within the Diamond range on the IDS chart below!  Such a blessing to us and so many others!!

This is a dream come true for us…and it can be for you too.  

So let’s talk about income potential…  real, live income potential.

It’s considered a little taboo to talk about money, but this info can change your life.

It did mine.  

There are 2,090 real people/families on our team whose lives are being impacted by the business opportunity that Young Living offers.    Most of us didn’t intend to have a business.  We loved the oils, started sharing them, and received a surprise check in the mail.  That will get your attention.

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?

Start here, and then keep reading, because I’ll break these numbers down for you.  Particularly because the tiny print can be difficult to read.    

What kind of a difference would more income make for your family?

Would you… pay off debt?  Go on vacation?  Pay for sports for your child?  Support a ministry?
