SLP 508: Essential Oils, Motherhood & The Power of Network Marketing with Courtney Dow

In this inspiring episode, Kim chats with Courtney Dow, a mother of three from the Sunshine Coast, who shares her journey from corporate life to building a thriving essential oils business through network marketing. Courtney opens up about the challenges of self-doubt, the misconceptions around MLM, and how she found freedom, confidence, and community in an industry often misunderstood.

Together, Kim and Courtney explore the structure and benefits of direct selling, its flexibility for mothers, and the importance of leading with genuine product love. They also highlight the therapeutic power of essential oils, from simple daily rituals to creating lasting emotional anchors for children and families.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder of the possibilities that open up when women choose authenticity, self-love, and entrepreneurship. Courtney’s advice? “Make decisions based on what makes you truly happy and brings you joy.”

Quotes: There is a risk to keep doing what feels safe but it doesn’t fulfil you. Things might look easy but nothing has been easy. I now have so much more choice and flexibility. There has been more acceptance due to a rise of influencers using affiliate marketing. You need to be authentic and a genuine love of the products. If it aligns with you and your message and the way you live your life go for it. This is a different structure that supports and mentors you. Some might see it as a cult like experience but that is because they don’t understand. This has helped me to be a business woman and prioritise motherhood. You are celebrated and elevated and valued. Career or Motherhood – you can actually have both. The risk is small with no overheads. There is a huge emphasis on personal and professional development to set you up for success. I love this industry there is so much heart and integrity and passion. There is no us versus them – there is space for everybody. They are not just nice smelly things, they are powerful tools. Make decisions based on what makes you truly happy and brings you joy.
