Review: Sara Ross
Your guidance has been amazing! The cold and allergy remedies you gave me worked like a charm!
Review: Tosh Mac
I was a natural Nay-sayer. And after using the oils to combat my allergy induced asthma and to help curve my smoking habit; I can now say I'm a 100% supporter of monie's movement!! I am so proud of you!!! I encourage everyone to check it out, ask questions and get on BOARD!!!!
Review: Merkeshia McKnight
I don't even know where to begin!! Your guidance has been sooo HELPFUL! I just had a baby and Moni-Luv brought over a Young Living blend and her own concoction. For almost the first 2 weeks, my son screamed and screamed for at least 2-4 hrs every night. Moni was there to the rescue! After I rubbed his stomach with the oils, literally he hasn't cried continuous since then. Thanks Moni-Luv! Continue to be an inspiration to the "Not for Lazy Moms" out there!!
Review: Jessica White Cristobal
This page and the awesome lady behind it knows a ton about natural remedies for adults and kids! For instance, kids with eczema or dry skin issues, she recommended pure Shea butter. It healed my babies dry flaky skin right up! Also, she recommended using Apple cider vinegar as a hair clarifier. It gave my hair tons of extra volume and took the buildup off. Lastly, I learned about essential oils through her. Now I don't go a day without using them, and I diffuse at bedtime for everyone in our family every night. It's changed our lives!

Sometimes I feel like I’m not doing a great job as mom because I’m not working a full time job and my wreath business isn’t where it should be at. So when I get notes from my kids' school saying how good of a parent I am, I just smile and say, "you got this girl now keep doing what you been doing."
