Speaking of the Royal Family... Gregg & Carol Johnson
GREGG AND I were first introduced to a Young Living Essential 7™ kit in 1995 and were just told to use it. The next month, when the second Essential 7 kit arrived, we asked what we were supposed to do with it and were given a quick explanation. When the third kit arrived, I decided I had enough pretty bottles decorating my counter and began my path of discovery. As “luck” would have it, I burned myself, giving me the opportunity to have my first lavender experience. I was amazed. It did exactly what I was told it would do: it healed the burn quickly. That motivated me to test Peace &Calming® on my 10-year-old son, Paul. I applied it to the bottoms of his feet and was fascinated with how peaceful he became. The rest is history. Paul, who is now 28; his siblings; and all of our grandchildren have had the wonderful health benefits of Young Living products for almost 18 years. Today, our home is filled with Young Living products, from toothpaste to diffusers. We inhale them, rub them on, and ingest them. Young Living is about wellness, purpose, and abundance. We go one step further and add, “the purpose of abundance.” We love travelling and sharing the oils and how Young Living has changed our lives.
“If you approach this... with the same vision and passion as Gary and Mary, you will be successful.”
Gregg shares this thought: Gary’s vision and hard work have given us the farms that are producing many of our oils and the facilities to test, bottle, label, and ship them to us. Our part is to share these amazing, God-given products with God’s children—those searching for a “natural way.” If you approach this opportunity with the same vision and passion as Gary and Mary, you will be successful. Sharing what you love with others is not rocket science. Our business allows us to split our time between Colorado Springs and Phoenix, spending time with our family and friends. How grateful we are for the healthier and happier lifestyle that we enjoy because of Young Living.
“Young Living is who I am. It’s who my family is. We live Young Living and we live it every day.”
Marcella Vonn Harting Marcella Vonn Harting’s journey to the wellness, purpose, and abundance she has so successfully navigated hasn’t always been as clear as it is today. The winding paths to success and even peace were wrought with unimaginable anxiety, daily battles, and pleadings for inner strength as she helplessly watched her newborn daughter’s health falter. “There was a moment in my life that changed me forever, and that was when I gave birth to our little girl, Kortni,” she says. “It was really touch-and-go; we had a lot of trauma with her birth, and then at seven months she literally died in my husband’s arms.” After Kortni had spent two weeks in intensive care, Marcella Vonn explains, “God gave Kortni back to us, and that inspired me and put me on a path that changed my life forever.”
That path included none other than Mary Young, one of her dearest friends. “Mary called me and said, ‘I think there are some products here that could make a difference for Kortni.’ That one phone call started me on a very abundant life with Young Living.” For more than 20 years, Marcella Vonn has been sharing her story—and her heart— with people worldwide. “I realised that I had created a phenomenal business by just sharing from my heart the oils and the difference they made for my daughter,” she explains. “Because of what my family has experienced, it would be really wrong for me to not share; it would be a disservice.” She admits that the only difference between her and the newest Young Living distributor is that she has talked to more people and has engaged more people in the company. “That’s literally the only difference,” she says. “I stand on the shoulders of many great leaders and wonderful people in my organisation. My success comes from all of their hard work and dedication to the Youngs and their personal dreams.” Marcella Vonn, husband Jim, and their two distributor children, Dallas and Kortni, eat, sleep, and breathe Young Living. “Young Living is who I am,” she declares. “It’s who my family is. We live Young Living and we live it every day. Being able to do this with my family is absolutely my biggest joy.”

Vicki Opfer is one of the fortunate ones, not just because she has achieved raving success at Young Living as a Royal Crown Diamond, but because she knows exactly how to pursue her life’s design. “My God-given purpose is to be of service to others,” Vicki says, “and these oils have given me a beautiful way to achieve this purpose every single day. People suffer so needlessly, so my goal has become to empower as many people as possible to share with their friends and family so that together we can touch the lives of many, many people.” This mother of four—grandmother to five—has been actively engaged in the natural-health field for more than 40 years, optimistically fulfilling her commission to bless others while at the same time blessing her own life. Young Living has given her the vehicle to do this. “Young Living’s mission of wellness, purpose, and abundance is exactly what my experience has been,” she expresses. “I experience all three of these on a daily basis. Young Living has enriched my life in immeasurable ways, and one of those is having the honour of helping others. I’ve seen miracle after miracle. I feel extremely blessed to go through life with these extraordinary experiences.” It is the art of sharing Young Living that Vicki has mastered, and from it has sprung a masterpiece—a vast number of people whose lives have been changed forever. “I’ve been in the natural-health field for 40 years, and I’m still in awe of what the oils can do for our physical, mental, and emotional well-being,” admits Vicki. “We don’t need to know how or why they’re working; we just need to put them on and let them work. “That’s the key: Use the products every day as a lifestyle choice. Find a simple, duplicable way to share Young Living with as many people as possible. Learn those skills and teach them to others. Young Living gives you the opportunity to do great good in the world.”

What’s Red and a Convention Must? NINGXIA RED® IS a superfruit beverage infused with powerful essential oils that provides long-lasting energy support. Because of its energising nature, NingXia Red is the perfect companion to the upcoming International Grand Convention. Young Living Platinum Dallas Harting agrees, “NingXia Red is a must because it gets people pumped up and keeps them energised throughout the convention.” The NingXia Red bar, located in the Product Expo, is an exciting place where distributors can go to get a variety of NingXia Red products, including NingXia Red shots (with or without oil mix-ins), slushies, and even SWAG. According to Young Living Crown Diamond Debra Raybern, “It is a great place to get our NingXia Red for the day.” For just a few dollars, attendees can intake sustained energy and fortify and replenish key nutrients—helping them stay alert and focused for a week of learning. Young Living Crown Diamond Brenda Schuler explains, “Stopping at the NingXia Red bar daily is an absolute must! You never know what surprises you will encounter. The entertainment is top notch; the bartenders are hilarious; the creations they make like ‘The Nuclear Explosion’ are amazing; and if you are lucky, Gary Young will be behind the bar!”
