As 2025 comes to a close, I want to pause—not to rush into what’s next—but to acknowledge what was.
If you’ve felt my absence since mid-November, thank you for your grace. When my dad fell ill, life asked me to slow all the way down. Family, faith, and being present took priority, and this community held space for me in ways I won’t forget.
So before anything else: thank you.
Thank you for your patience.
Thank you for checking in.
Thank you for continuing to support my small business—even when I was quieter than usual.
That support matters more than you know.
A Look Back: What We Explored Together in 2025
This year, we didn’t just talk about oils—we talked about using what we have with intention.
Together, we focused on:
- Daily oil rituals instead of “saving bottles for later”
- Emotional support, stress care, and grounding practices
- Consistency over perfection
- Pairing oils with real life—busy schedules, heavy seasons, and the need for peace
- Supporting the body holistically: mind, mood, metabolism, and rest.
Some of you recommitted to your routines.
Some of you experimented and learned what your body loves (and what it doesn’t).
Some of you simply stayed curious—and that counts.
Progress isn’t loud. Sometimes it’s subtle, steady, and personal.
A Moment to Reflect (No Pressure, Just Awareness)
As we head into a new year, I invite you to reflect—no judgment, no hustle:
- Which oils did you reach for most this year?
- Where did you notice support—in your mood, energy, sleep, or routines?
- What worked well for you?
- What felt clunky or inconsistent?
- What would “better support” look like for your body in 2026?
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what’s aligned.
Deep Gratitude for This Community
Supporting this business is never just about products—it’s about trust.
When you shop through my links, ask questions, or share my page with a friend, you’re helping sustain something I genuinely believe in. You allow me to continue partnering with a company that prioritizes quality, research, and thoughtful formulation.
I don’t take that lightly.
And I’m truly grateful.
Looking Ahead: Something New Is Coming — January 10
As we step into 2026, I’m excited to share that Young Living is launching a new product on January 10—and yes, I’m genuinely looking forward to this one.
Why?
- I hate taking shots
- I appreciate smart, research-backed solutions
- I trust the way Young Living designs products with care, timing, and intention.
This launch reflects a thoughtful evolution—supporting the body in a way that feels modern, approachable, and well-designed. It’s one of those right product, right time moments, and I can’t wait to share more details soon.
Consider it something good on the horizon.
