"I am passionate about essential oils and remain to this day both humbled and amazed by their healing intelligence and myriad of applications in our lives. I have a genuine desire to help others gain insight into safe and effective essential oil usage, as I have come to realize there is deficiency of readily available information in the market concerning best practices of essential oil usage. The Recipe Books were borne of OCD tendencies: I NEEDED my best recipes in one place, those I referenced frequently or needed to access quickly in an emergency. My mission evolved when I realized exactly how these books could serve to guide other essential oil users. I am exactly where God intends me to be in this life, and I do my best to spread education among everyone that I know and thousands that I don't, in order to make their entry and existence in the essential oil world as seamless as possible."
