The Scent That Changed My Life

I still remember the exact moment it happened. One deep breath in… and everything shifted. At the time, I was working in a government job. Burnt out, exhausted, and going through the motions. I didn’t even realise how disconnected I’d become from myself — I just knew something inside me felt trapped. Then I picked up a bottle of essential oil, took one smell, and my whole life was destined to change forever. It was Awaken. And that’s exactly what it did.

That single moment reconnected me to something I’d lost — my intuition, my energy, my sense of purpose. I didn’t know how or when, but I knew I would be creating a life with essential oils. I trusted the process, and step by step, I found my way forward.

Now, years later, I can see just how much those little bottles have done for me and my family. They’ve supported us emotionally, physically, and spiritually — helping us stay grounded, clear our energy, and keep growing.

The image above shows one of my favourite tools for understanding how essential oils connect with the body — the chakras. Each energy centre tells a story about where we’re blocked and how we can bring balance back.

• Root Chakra – when fear takes hold, oils like Ginger and Cypress help you feel grounded and safe.
• Solar Plexus Chakra – when self-doubt creeps in, oils like Lemongrass or Juniper reconnect you to your confidence.
• Heart Chakra – when grief or loss feels heavy, oils like Rose and Ylang Ylang open you back up to love and healing.
• Crown Chakra – when you need wisdom and clarity, oils like Frankincense and Myrrh lift your spirit.

Every time you use an oil intentionally — to clear, release, or reconnect — you’re inviting balance and flow back into your energy.

This is the work I continue to do every single day. It’s what allows me to create the life I love — to watch my son play football, to be part of our community, and to share this beautiful work with others.

If you’ve been feeling a little disconnected or unsure where to start, my 30-Day Emotional Clearing Online Course is the perfect next step. It’s gentle, grounding, and guides you through daily practices to reconnect with your emotions, energy, and purpose — all through the power of essential oils.
