Hi, I’m Jackie, the founder of Essentially Balanced. My story is one of evolution, a search for balance, and a deep commitment to helping others thrive. From a career in the corporate world to embracing natural wellness, my journey has led me to a life of purpose, and I’m so excited to share it with you.
For over 25 years, I thrived in the fast-paced world of a Blue Chip organisation, with over 15 of those years spent in senior HR and leadership roles. I loved creating innovative solutions and putting people at the heart of business strategies, but over time, I felt the strain. I was out of balance—caught between the demands of leadership and the need to prioritise my own wellbeing.
In 2016, I made a life-changing decision. I stepped away from the corporate world to focus on my personal journey. I immersed myself in mindfulness, becoming a qualified practitioner and teacher, and I launched Purple Train Consultancy, my coaching and facilitation business. Through Purple Train, I’ve worked with women in business, helping them step into their power through executive coaching, mindfulness practices, and using the power of CliftonStrengths coaching. Guiding individuals to understand and leverage their unique talents has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my work.
I’ve also shared the transformative power of mindfulness with children, teaching programmes like Relax Kids to inspire wellbeing at every stage of life.
But my journey didn’t stop there. As I worked to find balance, I discovered doTERRA Essential Oils, and everything shifted. These oils were the missing piece in my quest for a more natural, aligned way of living. They helped me tackle challenges like migraines, restless sleep, and the symptoms of menopause, empowering me to take control of my health and wellbeing.
With doTERRA, a new chapter began, and Essentially Balanced was born - a space where I combine my expertise in mindfulness, coaching, and natural wellness to help others transform their lives.

Balance
"I’m All In—to creating harmony in mind, body, and spirit."
Balance is at the heart of everything I do. In today’s fast-paced world, it's easy to feel like you're always racing against time, but balance isn’t just about managing tasks—it’s about creating space for what truly matters. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to juggle work, family, and personal goals, and that’s why I’ve made it my mission to help others live with intention, calm, and clarity.
True balance starts with the mind. Simple practices like meditation, mindful breathing, and grounding rituals can help you regain focus and peace. I often turn to Adaptiv essential oil to enhance mental clarity and calm, creating stillness in the middle of a busy day.
It’s also about integrating low-tox living into your routine. I choose products and practices that align with a natural, sustainable lifestyle—one that nurtures both body and the planet. Whether it’s using essential oils like Lavender and Copaiba to support restful sleep or choosing plant-based cleaners and skincare, I’m committed to making choices that support my wellbeing and protect the environment.
Balance isn’t about perfection—it’s about making intentional decisions that align with your values and protect your energy. Through Essentially Balanced, I’ll guide you to a life that’s not just about surviving, but thriving.

Empowerment
"I’m All In—to taking control of my health and my choices."
Empowerment is all about reclaiming control over your life—your health, your choices, and your future. I've been where you are, feeling frustrated by conventional methods that didn’t align with my values or bring lasting results. and left me feeling frustrated. Discovering natural solutions was a turning point, and now I’m passionate about sharing that freedom with others.
Essential oils are one of my favourite tools for empowering myself and my family. I rely on On Guard to protect against seasonal threats, and Peppermint and Wild Orange to keep me energised throughout the day. But empowerment isn’t just about physical health; it’s about creating a mindset of possibility and taking charge of your wellbeing.
I’m also committed to low-tox living—choosing products that are safe, effective, and free from harmful chemicals. From cleaning products to skincare, I make choices that not only support my health but also align with my values of sustainability. Through workshops, coaching, and resources, I’ll help you discover the tools to live with confidence and purpose.
Empowerment is about knowing that you have the power to change. And I’m here to help you tap into that power, with the knowledge and support, so you too can create a life of health and happiness.

Transformation
"I’m All In—to embracing change and becoming the best version of myself."
Transformation is a constant in my life, and it’s something I deeply believe in. It’s not about perfection but about continuous growth, learning, and evolving. I’ve seen the power of transformation in my own journey, from corporate leadership to embracing a more mindful, balanced life.
I’ve also witnessed this transformation in the women I coach, the families I support, and the individuals who embrace low-tox living. Transformation happens when you make conscious choices to align with your values—whether that means simplifying your lifestyle, prioritising self-care, or making small, sustainable changes that support your health. You and your journey are unique to you, that’s why I can bespoke it for you.
Through Essentially Balanced, I’ll guide you in embracing change in every area of your life. From adopting a low-tox lifestyle to building confidence, learning mindfulness, and using essential oils for daily wellness, I’ll be by your side as you step into the next chapter of your journey.
We often strive for perfection, but Transformation isn’t about being perfect—it’s about making progress and continuously evolving to become the best version of yourself. I’m here to help you embrace that journey with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Essentially Balanced is more than a website — it’s a resource and a supportive community. Here, you’ll discover practical tools, inspiring stories, and expert insights to help you embrace a more natural and balanced way of living. Whether you’re exploring essential oils, seeking mindfulness techniques, or looking for guidance in personal or professional growth, I’m here to walk alongside you.
Join me on this journey, and together we’ll create a life rooted in balance, empowerment, and meaningful transformation.
