Saving the bees is a good cause, but which bees are in danger? And what could you and I do? Young Living has a new friend of the podcast, Dr. Joseph Wilson who has made it his mission to educate people on bees. He is an entomologist at Utah State University and founder of the Native Pollinator Project. Oils come from plants and plants need healthy happy bees.

When we say Seed to Seal at Young Living it means that the products you receive to your home were produced, developed, and sent with the greatest of care. The 3 pillars of Seed to Seal are Sourcing, Science, and Standard. We have discussed the first two on previous podcasts, and today it is time to break down the standards. Rich Carlson is the Executive Director of Research and he is joined by Jessica Rogers, the Product Claims and Substantiation Director. Young Living sets high standards for ourselves in bringing you premium essential oils.

This week is the Lunar New Year celebrated by many across Young Living’s global company.

May you get everything you wish for, this year and always.

The new year is a natural time for reflection. How did we do last year, and how can this one be even better. Will you read more, eat better, or spend more time with family? What about professional goals? Young Living wants to be better in 2022 too and today we talk with Prasad Gankanda of the executive team about how we arrived at this year’s goals and what they are. Join us in making Young Living a better place and filling the world with essential oils in 2022.

Over field and fountain, moor and mountain the three wise men brought gifts to the Christ child; Frankincense, Gold, and Myrrh. Gary Young called Frankincense the Swiss Army Knife of essential oils because of it’s multiple uses.

Merry Christmas from the YL Drop!

Hear the stories behind the portraits you recognize as John walks us through some of the key locations and moments of Gary's final years. Also, we continue looking at Young Living's Seed to Seal Commitment with pillar two, Science, with Young Living's Executive Director of Research and Development Rich Carlson.

Gary Young founded a company with staying power. But in order for the world to be filled with essential oils, the world must be healthy. The precious plants that lend us their oils must be able to grow and mature and be taken care of.

A strong company and a happy earth, working together.
