Life has a way of teaching you what matters most — and then pointing you in the direction of purpose. My own wellness journey didn’t begin with a business plan. It began with recovery, curiosity, and a desire for balance, and that’s ultimately what led me to partner with doTERRA. (yourbetterhealth.co.uk/about-me)
My Story: From Recovery to Wellness
Hi, I’m Nicky, happily married to Simon and mum to three amazing kids, living on the beautiful South Coast of Dorset, UK. In January 2013, life took an unexpected turn. I was 17 weeks pregnant when viral meningitis left me unable to walk. Recovery was long, slow, and humbling. During that time, I began to reassess how I lived my life not just what I did, but how I cared for myself and my family.
That experience was a reset button. It shifted my focus from “busy” to balanced from just coping to thriving and it led me to explore natural ways to support wellbeing more holistically. Essential oils were an early discovery on that path tools that helped me feel supported in everyday life.
Discovering doTERRA and It's Story
In 2018, I discovered doTERRA. What drew me wasn’t a sales pitch it was the values behind the brand and its story of origin. When I watched the Genesis video, I was struck by how doTERRA started with integrity, purity, and purpose prioritising quality over shortcuts and mission over quick profit. That really resonated with me.
The name doTERRA means “Gift of the Earth,” and that sentiment mirrors my own belief that nature provides incredible tools we can use to support ourselves and our families. Their emphasis on purity, ethical sourcing and respect for the people and places they work with helped me feel confident in the products I was using and sharing. (Your Better Health)
More Than Products — A Sense of Purpose
When I first partnered with doTERRA, it wasn’t just about the oils though (of course that was a big part) I quickly fell in love with them. It was about what they represented: a holistic approach to wellbeing that honours the mind, body and spirit. That deeper purpose care for people and the planet aligned with my own values, and it helped me realise this wasn’t just another business idea.
Why I Said “Yes” — Values, Flexibility and Community
There were several reasons I felt called to partner with doTERRA and why it felt right:
A way to create gentle income on my own terms — something flexible that fits with family life. (Your Better Health)
A chance to share something I truly believe in with people I care about — not pushing a product, but offering support.
A community that supports growth without pressure or hype — a place where people can explore natural wellness at their own pace.
The freedom to work in a way that fits my lifestyle — with space to balance family, health, and meaningful connection.
It wasn’t about selling. It was about sharing and that made all the difference.
Building Community and Connection
What makes this journey meaningful isn’t only the tools it’s the people. Over time, I realised that my mission with Your Better Health wasn’t just about education. It was about community, connection, and support. We gather to learn, share, laugh, and grow whether that’s online through our weekly meet ups or in person at events like retreats and doFEST gatherings. These are spaces where people feel seen, encouraged, and welcomed exactly as they are.
Who This Might Be For
Maybe you’re curious about natural wellness. Maybe you want a little extra income that fits with your life. Maybe you’re looking for purposeful connection, support and growth without pressure or expectation. That’s what partnering with doTERRA with me is all about. It’s not a single formula, but an open door to explore what feels right for you.
When You’re Ready
If this resonates with you, I’m here. Whether you want to learn a bit more about essential oils, or quietly explore what’s next over time, I’m ready to walk alongside you. Sometimes the smallest step leads to the biggest changes — and I’d love to be part of your journey, if and when you’re ready.
With warmth and kindness,Nicky Kay 🤍
