Al & Maureen Garcia (*winter 2012)
Maureen caught Al’s eye one day in the cafeteria at Ricks College, now BYU-Idaho. Not missing a beat, Al marched straight up to beautiful Maureen and asked her out. In standard college student fashion, Al borrowed his roommate’s Volkswagen and took Maureen out to the local A&W drive through.
Their relationship first started to blossom that evening, sitting in a borrowed Volkswagen enjoying their burgers. The Garcia’s have recently celebrated their 37th anniversary and love spending time with their five grown children and eight grandchildren.
Upon completing his degree in Family and Human Development, Al served in various capacities of the Army for 15 years. During his time in the Army, Al and Maureen had the opportunity to move their young family to Germany.
Al Said, “Our children were troopers. They learned German quickly and will always cherish the many family memories we made there.”
Despite the great health benefits the Garcia’s received while serving in the Army, Maureen opted to deliver four of their five children at home. Maureen’s desire for natural, home births strongly reflects her holistic upbringing.
When Maureen shared with Al her desires for natural medication in their home, Al was reminded of his sweet grandma who also desired natural remedies, and so he supported Maureen.
In 1993, Al left the military to pursue a business venture both he and Maureen were very passionate about. He founded Herbs for Health and started building stores throughout the West. It was at this time that Al met and partnered with Laura Jacobs.
Years later, in 2009, Al had an unexpected seizure and was injured very badly. He was taken immediately to the ER. Laura had learned about dōTERRA essential oils and insisted his family rub them on his comatose body.
When Al came out of the coma, one of his first concerns was the well-being of his stores. He didn’t know how he was going to continue providing for his family if he was no longer physically able to manage his stores. Al had always thought essential oils were a ‘girly’ product and hadn’t used them before this experience.
Yet when he got home from the hospital, he started relying on Deep Blue and lemongrass for daily relief. Looking back, Al realizes that he may have been hurt in order to open his mind to essential oils.
Maureen was initially hesitant to believe dōTERRA CPTG essential oils were the purest, most potent on the market. She had studied natural remedies for years and knew it wasn’t uncommon for a company to claim their product as the best.
However, as she watched Al’s recovery progress with dōTERRA essential oils, she knew they indeed were of the highest quality. The Garcia’s mantra for over 23 years has been, ‘Learn to health yourself.’

They promoted this vision through herbs. Although herbs were effective, they found that when they started promoting essential oils, their message of natural health solutions was amplified.
“People want to see things work and work fast. They need results. A day doesn’t go by that I have people calling me who can’t believe how quickly and effectively the essential oils have helped them,”
Al said. Before joining dōTERRA, Al was very careful to evaluate the company and encourages others to do the same. He recommends evaluating the company based off three pillars.
First, investigate the people behind the infrastructure of the company. Second, evaluate the product. Use the product yourself and know if the product is good or not. Third, look at the leaders you will potentially be leading with.
Al explains, “When you have done your due diligence on dōTERRA, you will see what I see. You will see how unique dōTERRA truly is.”
“In an age where intellectual information is in high demand we are not seeking salesmen, but are rather looking to attract teachers."
