Juggle juggle, rest rest...
Yesterday I slept in until 11:00am. Today I slept in until 10:37. Tomorrow it's up and back at 'em at 6:00am. But I am okay with that.
Last week was a whirlwind of adventure. It began with nerves and ended with powerhouse excitement and sillyness that only comes from severe lack of sleep when you surround yourself with 1500 people and really AH-mazing food.
I am going to keep a lid on it all for just a little bit longer (I know!!) until I can send you a direct link on the web to the video project I produced through the month of August - because soon anyone can see it and I just can't wait. But for starters I'll begin the story...
Several months ago I began a path to find answers to some health issues my family was encountering. To make a long story short, I found the answer in essential oils. Not just any brand of essential oils. doTERRA essential oils - the only certified pure therapeutic grade essential oils on the market today. To put it bluntly, they are the best. And they work. Instantly. Safely. And amazingly effectively. I can say this because I have used other brands, but none of them have healed the way doTERRA oils have. I am blessed beyond belief to have the chief medical advisor of doTERRA living just down the street from me. Bless him for helping me help my family and begin my journey to natural healing in my home with essential oils.
A small crisis in our family (which is a story for another day) led me to make some hasty and risky decisions. Why not launch my photography biz into a full-blown production company? I mean really, it's either I take a risk or we keep on keeping on and that alternative was not okay with me.
It's funny to me how we are all on wavelengths. It's kind of like when you are thinking of a long lost friend and then just the next day they've added you on facebook. You know what I mean?
So as I was comtemplating the large investment I had just made into massive amounts of high tech new equipment - while washing dishes one Sunday afternoon in late July - I had an idea. It was an idea I couldn't let go, not until I acted. I usually insist that I do not work on the sabbath, but I dropped my dishes chore and jumped onto my email. I emailed Australia and told them my idea:
I love doTERRA essential oils. I am a producer. I can hire a full crew. What do you think?
They emailed me back within the hour: Let's talk.
Turns out my idea was in tune with their need. Talk about a jackpot wavelength.
We beamed, we brainstormed, we stayed up very late (that whole 16 hour time difference can be a beast), and we skyped until we had come up with brilliance.
Our idea was made into reality through amazing support and talent which I cannot express enough gratitude for. Really, you know, no one can be successful by themselves - go team! The finished project was presented to doTERRA corporate. They loved it so much they launched their convention with it. On the big screen. Last weekend.
It was so worth it.
And this is only the beginning.
In the meantime, I am back to dusting off the photography studio.
Because these little people are really what I am doing it all for anyway and there's nobody better to do a light test with, you think?
