Essential Wellness Consultant / Distributor
Young Living Essential Oils
(Privately Held; Myself Only; Health, Wellness and Fitness industry)
February 2003 — Present (6 years 6 months)
I am an Essential Wellness Consultant who utilizes the Young Living Essential Oils full line of wellness products.
The founder, Gary Young, learned of the power of essential oils through a profound personal experience that led him on a worldwide odyssey to learn about essential oils and their therapeutic value. Headed by a seasoned executive team, YL is poised for phenomenal growth.
YL lays claim to the original rediscovery of the power of therapeutic-grade essential oils in the United States. Also, YL was the first to introduce to the Western world the power of the revered Ningxia wolfberry, which is the core ingredient in our powerful antioxidant drink, NingXia Red®. It is this kind of original thinking combined with an untiring pursuit of product purity and potency that separates Young Living Essential Oils from any other company. -
