Meet Sherri Sharpe Herzberg

 
Hi, friend!  So happy to "meet" you here!  A little about me...

My name is Sherri and along with my husband Andrew and our two kiddos- Casey and Anna- I currently live in Pensacola, Florida.  We are a military family- both my husband and I are retried Army Helicopter Pilots. We were both officially retired in 2021 and our last assignment brought us to Florida and for the foreseeable future, we will call this home!  After 20+ years of moving around every 12-36 months, its both amazing and terrifying to be putting down some roots.  Fun Peek at the Future: we have a 35' RV and we are planning to take this show on the road in a few years though.  So, stay tuned!

I got started with Essential Oils in 2014 just after our son was born and a few days after my husband deployed to Afghanistan.  I was still on Active Duty with the Army myself and trying to navigate my new role as a mom while working full time and it was...brutal.  My friend Shannon (an Army Labor & Delivery Nurse) was doing the same...with triplets!  She shared about getting allllll the sleep, boosting her milk supply and keeping the family's immune system in tip-top shape using essential oils and I immediately jumped in.  

I knew nothing about essential oils or the various brands out there.  I knew nothing about the toxins lurking inside our bath, kitchen and laundry cabinets.  I just knew I needed more sleep and stress support STAT!  

Thankfully, I had stumbled into Young Living and a team full of nature + science minded mamas dedicated to educating, empowering and supporting others on their wellness journeys.  I learned about the YL Seed to Seal promise...I got to visit 3 of their farms to see it in action for myself...and I was so grateful that I landed in the very best the industry has to offer.  

At first, I was just interested in diffusing and replacing candles.  But, slowly I started the process of ditching and switching out toiletries, supplements, cleaning products, baby and beauty products.  I was worried this would be an expensive change for my family but...the versatility of the oils and products blew me away and when you can use one thing to replace four or five...the savings adds up quickly! And the peace of mind that I'm using healthier, cleaner and more natural products on and around my family...priceless.

As my excitement grew, so did my business and here we are...in something completely unexpected.  

Favorite products: Stress Away (everything its name implies and more), Gentle Baby (skin, relaxation, tantrum tamer), Ningxia Red (antioxidant goodness at the core of my family's secret to staying above the wellness line), Thieves Household Cleaner (truly an all purpose, green cleaning powerhouse) and Manuka (along with saline rinses & lymphatic massage, this oil replaced my 10 year allergy med habit and annual sinus infection antibiotics).  For real...Manuka BLEW MY MIND. 

Fast fun facts about me:
1. I'm from Martinsville, VA...where are my Nascar short track fans at?
2. I'm an ESFJ, 6w7, 4/6 Manifesting Generator (any personality type geeks out there?)
3. Tacos and Margaritas are LIFE. Fight me.
4. Everything in life is an excuse to eat cake...coconut, chocolate or lemon especially.
5. Late blooming mama- I was considered "elderly" on the maternity ward at 36 and 38 when my kiddos were born!
6. My favorite colors are blue & green which works well in a beach town.
7. I hate sand.  Yep...I live at the beach.  Meh...win some, lose some.  

Okay, now hit that contact me button and tell me about YOU!  What brought you here?

This post will give you some cool summer secrets and teach you how to use AMAZING Young Living products to enhance your summer experiences!

Every good meal starts with a yummy starter, so let's begin with some appetizer recipes. Appetizers give your guests teaser bites of delicious flavors while they mingle and wait for the main course! Put all those garden-grown and farmers' market veggies to great use with these recipes! 


Lemon- Lime Guacamole

Onion trick: To remove some of the bite of the red onion, soak the chopped onion in warm water for five minutes and then remove from the water.

Grill Marinades
Store-bought marinades have a shelf life, which means the ingredients lose freshness every day they sit there, and at the same time, the flavors lose their intensity.
The secret to mastering marinades is in knowing the effect of various marinating durations.
Marinating for two hours or less will impart a surface flavor.
For a fully infused flavor, marinade for 8-24 hours.
NOTE: The thicker the meat, the longer it takes to absorb the flavor. 
Here are a couple of my favorite marinade recipes. They’re full of flavor AND free of any preservatives and include the following oils:

Lemon Vitality & Lime Vitality supports your digestive, immune, and respiratory systems.                     
Coriander Vitality supports your digestive and hormonal systems.   
Black Pepper Vitality supports your digestive and nervous systems.

Is anybody here a taco fan? Check out this killer Chicken Marinade!

  • 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 drops Black Pepper Vitality Essential Oil
  • *2 drops Lime Vitality Essential Oil
Mix the above ingredients together. Allow chicken to marinate for 2-6 hours.
*Avoid plastic when using citrus essential oils.

Next up, some simple recipes to ensure you enjoy your Summer Fun! 


Outdoor Spray
Hot summer evenings outside are best enjoyed annoyance-free. Check out this awesome-smelling outside spray that will keep your evenings much more enjoyable. 

Ingredients:
  • 2 oz Witch Hazel
  • 2 oz distilled water
  • 20 drops Thieves Essential Oil
  • 20 drops Lemon Essential Oil
  • 20 drops Rosemary Essential Oil
  • 20 drops Citronella Essential Oil 
Mix together in a 4oz spray bottle.

Soothing Stick
If you forget to apply your outdoor spray, don’t worry. I have your back. This is perfect for kids!

DIY Soothing Stick
  • 5 drops Lavender Essential Oil
  • 5 drops *Purification Essential Oil
  • 3 drops *Peppermint Essential Oil 
*Leave the Peppermint and Purification out of this recipe if using on children 2 years old or younger.
Combine these magical essential oils in a 10 ml roller and fill the rest with V6 complex oil or your favorite carrier oil. Apply this soothing stick roll-on to any areas you need and as often as you need it.
 

Floating Citronella Candle
 
Spruce up your summer social with this beautiful DIY citronella candle. It is not only EASY, but it will change the look of any table, AND it actually WORKS!  
 
Did you know that many store-bought citronella candles don't contain citronella oil? Instead, the candles are often just citronella ‘scented.’ BIG difference.  
 
Supplies
  • Glass bowl or container
  • Decorations of your choice. You can use anything! (Lemon peels, orange peels, cinnamon sticks, lavender, rosemary, flower petals, river rocks, etc.)
  • 20 drops Citronella Essential Oil
  • 10 drops Lemongrass Essential Oil
  • 1 T Witch Hazel
  • Water to top off glass bowl or container
  • 1 unscented floating candle
Instructions
  1. Gather decorations and arrange in a bowl. I recommend cutting them into two-inch pieces so they don’t bunch at the top of the bowl or cause it to overturn.                                       
  2. Add Witch Hazel, Citronella, and Lemongrass Essential Oil to the bowl.
  3. Fill in the remaining bowl space with water.
  4. After placing your bowl outside, top it off with the floating candle and light it to create a cozy, aromatic ambiance you and your guests can enjoy throughout the evening.
Fun fact about Citronella Essential Oil! There are quite a few recipes out there to create your own aluminum-free deodorant with citronella. (We will save those for another class.) Meanwhile, did you know that the aluminum in deodorants has been linked to health problems, including the neurological damage associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and conditions like anemia, Lou Gehrig’s disease, glucose intolerance, memory problems, and Parkinson’s disease? GROSS!
 
 

Playtime Balm
Ok this DIY is a little more complicated but definitely worth it! I promise. This will have you ready for all those mishaps that summer can bring.

Playtime Balm 
Ingredients:
  • ¼ cup coconut oil
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 T beeswax
  • 10 drops Lavender Essential Oil
  • 10 drops Frankincense Essential Oil
  • 5 drops Myrrh or Helichrysum Essential Oil
  • 1 drop Peppermint Essential Oil
  • 5 drops Tea Tree Essential Oil 
Directions:
Melt all ingredients except the oils in a double boiler. When cooled, add essential oils and pour into glass jars or lip balm tubes. Allow to harden.
Apply to knees, elbows, and any other place that might need a little extra love.

And that's it! You're ready for a summer barbeque!
