It's Time!

Back in 2016, I was struggling! Outwardly I seemed to have it all together, I had a great job, I’d just bought a new house that I loved (still love) and I was genuinely happy BUT I had a major health challenge that had plagued me for around 30 years. I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) which in simplistic terms is a hormone imbalance. Aside from some horrible symptoms like male pattern hair growth and weight problems, it also caused me excruciating pain – the kind of pain that on a good day was impossible to push through and do anything and on a bad day meant I would pass out and come to on the bathroom floor. I remember fainting during a school assembly once and feeling utterly humiliated and unable to explain to my teachers or friends why it had happened. I hadn’t been diagnosed at that point but I was well aware of where all that pain was coming from and what caused me to pass out!

So… fast forward to 2016, like I said, I had it together, I was living my best life and the only thing holding me back was my PCOS. I’d been on synthetic hormones and increasingly stronger pain killers for 30 years. They’d pretty much stopped working and they had some nasty and unwanted side effects. That’s when I quite literally stumbled across dōTERRA and I was SOOO ready to take back control of my wellbeing. I honestly never felt like any of the doctors or specialists I’d seen in all those years really understood what I was dealing with or saw me as a whole person. To them I was a set of symptoms, a mathematical equation they were attempting to solve! dōTERRA gave me hope but I’ll be honest, I approached it with a small amount of scepticism too. I did my research, worked out what oils would support my reproductive system and decided I had nothing to lose but everything to gain if they actually worked. I took my health into my own hands and in December of 2016 I went cold turkey on all pharmaceutical drugs. I decided to “give it a go” knowing that the worst thing that could happen would be my cycle would stop again, as it had many times before whenever I’d tried going off the synthetic hormones. I was already in pain so I figured that couldn’t get any worse and if my cycle did stop, then I’d go back to the pharmaceuticals… but guess what? It’s May 2020 and I still have a regular cycle, I haven’t taken one single synthetic drug since that day, not even a Panadol and I just think that is BLOODY AMAZING!!!

So what happened next? It felt selfish for me to keep this to myself. I started to tell my friends about dōTERRA and I watched as friend after friend began seeing their own amazing results. I rejoiced every time I received another gushing thank you message from the person who had finally had a decent night’s sleep, the friend who finally found relief for her digestive issues or the mum who was amazed by the difference in her child’s grades now that he was able to concentrate at school and I made it my mission to help as many people as I can. dōTERRA has literally changed my life and I want that for anyone who is ready to reclaim their wellness. Perhaps that’s you or perhaps it’s a friend of yours, in which case, please feel free to share this blog post with them. But most importantly, take this opportunity I am offering you, visit https://www.wildorangewellbeing.com.au/events-1 and book yourself in to a free class (or more than one if you like) and allow me to empower you with the tools to take charge of your wellness. It’s time, let’s do this!
