Brooke Pugh had been a single parent for many years before she met her husband, Shane. They were on welfare and felt worn out and beat down by life. Her friends James and Chelsea Stevens invited Brooke and Shane over for dinner and introduced them to doTERRA. Brooke thought it was weird, but accepted an oil sample to be polite. She went home and tried it, and it was so effective that she soon needed more.
Because Brooke had no money to purchase essential oils, Chelsea suggested she enroll and hold a class. Chelsea told her, “If you will try, I will help you, support you, and do whatever it takes to walk this road with you.” Brooke agreed to give it a shot. She took most of the oils she got and gave them away to anyone she could—even knocking on doors and talking to people she didn’t know. Every dime she made she invested back into her business. Within three months, she was Gold. She says, “I ran with it as hard as a person can run because I didn’t have any other way.”
Meanwhile, Shane worked two fulltime jobs, made dinner for the family, cleaned the house, and even helped teach classes when Brooke was out of town for Diamond Club. Brooke knew she wanted to be Diamond the first time she went to the gala and watched the Diamonds walk the red carpet. She says, “It gave me this unquenchable fire. I said, ‘That is mine. I will have that.’” And, at the 2015 Alive Convention, she was able to walk the carpet herself.
Now, her family has been able to get off of welfare and can afford to rent a home of their own. Brooke says, “There was no way I could have ever gotten out without doTERRA. James and Chelsea were angels sent by God to help me unravel my negative belief systems.
When I said I couldn’t do this and I was born to fail, they told me, ‘That’s a lie. Now get up and live.’ I realize now that every person on the planet can change their lives. You grow up and you’re told that this is your life—you’re stuck, deal with it, but it’s just not true. We are so capable of creating whatever reality we want.”
She is amazed that she can now create as much income as she wants and is able to take care of her children. Brooke says, “Once upon a time I felt completely unworthy of love and life. Now, life is almost unrecognizable from what it was before. I feel abundant. The possibilities are endless. I’m excited and hopeful for the future. I could have never wrapped my brain around what a major lifechanging blessing this would be.”
