Trish and Jack at Women Empowering Women Conference, Manchester, NH
I joined Jack Canfield's team and started building my Young Living business after he called me one rainy Sunday in April, 2020 to share what he was learning about essential oils and how we could incorporate them into his Success Principles training. You may know that I've been studying with Jack as a student and mentee since 2010 and I've been working with Jack, leading his live and virtual training teams, since 2016..
You can read my story below about how I got involved in Young Living, but for now just know that my experience so far has supercharged my life, challenged my traditional medical training, piqued my curiosity and Inspired me to transform my personal life with Aroma Freedom Techniques and transform my training, lodging and retreat center commercial property into a non-toxic environment, all while providing a much appreciated additional income stream during these financially uncertain times. And Jack's excitement about the products and the business opportunity is beyond electric!
If you've ever remotely considered starting a product-based network marketing business, this opportunity is by far the best you'll ever come across. The combination of Young Living's product quality and support, along with Jack's commitment to training, coaching and mentoring his team members is a winning combination you will not find in any other organization.
If you knew Jack like I do, you'd know that he always overdelivers. His content and commitment to your success will be well worth the small investment that will provide you with your starter kit of oils and info to get you started on your Young Living adventure. In addition, if you've ever taken any of Jack's trainings, you'll know that his community is a connection that will support you in creating your best life, wherever that leads you!! Even if you ultimately decide you're not interested in building a Young Living business!

Here is My YL Story
Out of the blue, while sitting quietly on the couch reading on a rainy Sunday in April, I got a phone call from my teacher, mentor and client, Jack Canfield, the Chicken Soup for the Soul guy and author of the book The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be. He was talking really fast and was quite giddy as he told me about a new book he was reading that was about a new process to clear stuck emotions called the Aroma Freedom Technique.
I've been working with Jack for over eight years and now run his training teams for his Breakthrough to Success and Success Principles Train the Trainer events. In the training room it is my responsibility to be sure participants are supported, both physically and emotionally, while they're digging deep into the transformational experiences and training that Jack delivers. It is not uncommon for participants to discover a subconscious block that holds them back from being successful, either in the training room or in life, Either Jack or me or a member of the support team will work with the participant to clear the block using one of many techniques that get to the subconscious cause and clear it out of the way. The results are profound. We have witnessed many miraculous transformations in the work we do together, so when Jack called to tell me about AFT, I was all ears.
Jack shared the personal experience he and his wife Inga had with AFT. Then he told me how excited he was that it could help people overcome fear, emotional blocks and even the PTSD that is beginning to emerge due to the pandemic, I was all ears!
He invited me to join him in learning more about AFT and in putting the technique into practice to support people in creating their best post-COVID lives. In that moment, my heart said yes. It said yes to using essential oils to enhance a clearing process.
A week later, my starter kit arrived and I had no idea what to do with it. Young Living essential oils? Ningxia Red? Thieves Household Cleaner? Really? I am sure that if I stopped to let my head speak I would have taken out the lavender and the lemon oil and perhaps thought about diffusing the lavender to help me sleep or added some lemon oil to my ice water and then put the rest of the kit aside, untouched. But I trust Jack.
So I read everything I could on the science of the sense of smell, the brain, the olefactory nerve, the amygdala, and the connection to memories. Jack sent me a book on the Aroma Therapy Technique and I devoured it the day I got it. I bought the set of essential oil blends Jack recommended for AFT. I started practicing the process on myself. I cleared my sugar cravings. I used the process to work through a relationship issue that kept resurfacing and triggering a sense of abandonment and rejection. I used AFT to help me stop procrastinating. The results have been profound. I then starting practicing on friends and a couple of colleagues who were willing subjects. The process is amazing and the results we have all been having are incredible. So incredible that I went on to complete the certification course in AFT.
Over the course of several group sessions, participants have used the AFT process to help with sugar cravings, set big goals that before the process, they didn't believe were possible, increase self confidence, get clarity around their next steps, overcome fear of having a difficult conversation, set boundaries, understand intergenerational influences in order to understand and improve present day relationships, transform grief and loss to compassion and forgiveness. The list goes on and on. And the more we practice the AFT process, the more astounded I am about how quick, effective, simple it is and how consistent the results are.
So when Jack invited me to join his team, share his passion and help him get AFT and essential oils out into the world to support physical and emotional health in these uncertain and challenging times. I couldn't say no.
At first, my traditional medicine trained brain (I am a pharmacist) had some resistance to the use of oils for ailments that I might have used ibuprofen or allergy medicine for. And then one night, I had a dream that Heber W. Youngken, the former Dean of the University of RI College of Pharmacy I graduated from and well known for his work in the field of Pharmacognosy (the study of plant medicine). In my dream, he and I toured the College's medicinal garden. There we found lavender, eucalyptus, lemon balm, peppermint and a host of other oil bearing plants. I woke up smiling. Dean Youngken came to me to remind me that essential oils are extracted from plants and trees and the use of what's extracted goes way back before modern medicine even existed. I immediately decided to extend my commitment to learn and dove into the business aspect of essential oils and I haven't looked back.
And now I'm hooked and inspired ... on both AFT and on essential oils. I cracked open my starter kit and started exploring the oils. I've switched out toxic cleaning products for Thieves Household cleaner and laundry detergent and foaming soap and am loving the amazing results without the chemicals. I gave up the drying and smelly hand sanitizer and exchanged it for essential oil infused Thieves Hand Sanitizer that actually leaves my hands feeling soft and smelling wonderful. And I am just coming off Week 1 of a 30 day Ningxia Red Challenge that is giving me more energy and focus and decreasing my appetite already.
I am COVID exhausted AND I am excited for the opportunity to take all I've learned through the COVID chaos and run it through the lens of essential oils and all the training and support Jack has committed to provide as I take the next steps towards enhancing my abundant life.
