My Top 5 Essential Oils

November 15, 2017 by Sheila | A B & Me 1 Comment

When I started my oily journey, I only wanted good quality oils to diffuse. I never imagined myself doing so much more with my oils. It’s also a blessing that I was introduced to Young Living as they are the world leader in essential oils. Yep, that’s right. You can even ask Siri!

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?
