Hey, everybody. This is Heidi St. John. Welcome to my little corner of the internet. Today is Monday, May 6th, episode number 762. Also, this is Mailbox Monday. You guys know I love to answer your questions. And today, we are going to answer the question on essential oils. A lot of you guys ask me about essential oils. I know a lot of

you see me on the road with them. And so I've asked my friend Melissa Crabtree to come on the show with me

today. And we're going to talk all things essential oils. Stick around. We're going to have some fun.

And I think you're going to be encouraged. All right, so you guys know that this is the time of year that I am out on the road.

And this week, I have a very busy week ahead of me.

I will be leaving on Wednesday to fly to teach them diligently in Mobile.

And I'm excited. I love teach them diligently. I love being there. I love to see what God is doing in your families.

So come on out if you haven't had a chance yet to visit me at a convention. This is a great time to do

it. So I will be opening that event with the bang on Thursday. So coming out for that. And also this Sunday, I'm going to be bringing the message at Abundant Life Church in Lee's Summit. And the Lord has put something so powerful on my heart for this particular weekend for Mother's Day weekend. You guys have heard me say this many times. I really believe that when

faith finds its feet in this generation of parents, we are going to see a culture shift. And so I'm

going to be speaking to you guys out of Psalm 127 for Mother's Day. Come on out. It's going to be a

fantastic opportunity for you to get encouraged. Whether you have children or whether you don't, this message

is for you. So that'll be this Sunday, May 12th at Abundant Life Church in Lee Summit. All right,

I want to jump right into the topic today. It's mailbox Monday. I get questions quite a bit

here at the podcast about essential oils. And you guys have heard me have my friend on here.

Dr. Edie Wadsworth has been on the show a couple of times with me. And today I decided to go

ahead and ask Melissa Crabtree to come on and talk with me about essential oils because Melissa,

well, a lot of you guys will already know, she's my assistant. She's worked with me for probably

at least six years. And we love essential oils. And so we take them on the road with us. I use them in my family all the time for lots of different things. And they've been so helpful for me. So I thought it'd be fun to have Melissa come on and just chat it up about essential oils 101. Melissa, welcome to the podcast. Hey, thanks for having me.

So this is kind of fun. You and I podcasting together. We don't typically do this.

I know. It is kind of fun. I guess if we can't have coffee together, we might as well

podcast together, right? Right. That's one way to look at it. You're going to be with me,
