MY JOURNEY
I am Teresa Partridge, owner/operator/manager of The Happy Sol wellness center in Roxboro, NC.
I have always been interested in helping people. Growing up, I wanted to be a veterinarian, then a nuclear medicine technologist, then a pharmacist. None of those panned out but I still thought I should be helping people in some way. Fast forward to today and I feel like I've finally found my calling. I'm on a mission to help people find their optimal health by reducing their stress and finding emotional balance. I love sharing information and truly enjoy helping others feel better and see a better future for themselves.
I discovered essential oils about 25 years ago and was using the ones I found in the specialty stores. It wasn't until I attended my first doTERRA essential oil class In 2016 that I realized the oils I had been using were not as potent as I thought. Comparing my store bought oils to doTERRA was like night and day and I was hooked on doTERRA's commitment to quality and sound ethical practices.
I became a doTERRA member because I liked what I heard about the supplements and how they, coupled with the oils, could improve my gut/digestive health. They DID NOT disappoint! I've been an avid supporter ever since and have experienced numerous health benefits personally, received positive reports from family and friends, witnessed improved health in my pets and have even received positive feedback from others I've simply shared oil samples with and the 25% member discount is just cream on top! It would take forever to share all the success stories here but I'm always willing to talk about them if you'd like.
In 2012, I found the inspiration for my current logo in a keychain in Virginia. The Happy Sol name didn't come to mind until early 2017 and I knew that it would be the name for a future wellness center which I hadn't even committed to opening anytime soon. My logo finally came to life in September 2020.
The next step in my journey started in December 2017 when my 12.5 year old dog, only 6 months after learning she had Cushing's disease, was diagnosed with a cancerous melanoma on her footpad. It was about the size of a grain of rice and she was given only 2-3 months to live without surgery which may only have extended her life for up to 6 months more. I couldn't afford the $2500 surgery or justify the cost to only get a potential 6 months more so I turned to an essential oil
Vet out of Texas, who uses doTERRA, for support. We came up with a protocol which actually stopped the growth of the tumor, that had grown to the size of two peas in only two months, and caused it to shrink and stabilize to about the size of one pea. It never fully cleared up but my dog experienced more vibrant life since starting on essential oils. She DID NOT pass away in 3 to 6 months as predicted but lived an additional 2.5 years! The only thing different was our essential oil protocol. Sadly, she passed June 2020, due to complications from an infection that her already compromised health didn't allow her to recover from. She was 15 years old.
I learned of the Harmonic Egg in February 2019 and instantly knew that when I decided to open my wellness center, it would definitely be a part of it. The nerd in me was fascinated at how numerology, science, technology, sound and light could all play a part in our healing. The intricate ways in which they are woven together and play off each other is intriguing to say the least. I briefly looked into it then but put it out of my mind since there weren't any near me to experience. The Harmonic Egg came back into my thoughts a year and a half later in August 2020, without warning. After researching it again, I found one to experience in Asheville, NC, only 4 hours away. I had my first session in September 2020 and based on that experience alone, I decided to purchase my own so others could experience it too. The Happy Sol wellness center opened September 2021 in Roxboro, NC and offers aroma, sound, light and vibration therapy using doTERRA essential oils and the Harmonic Egg. Bioscan Health Assessments, AromaTouch and Symphony of the Cells sessions are also available. There is a gift shop on site that has essential oils, essential oil accessories and resources, electrolytes, root cider, silver, crystals and other unique gift items that can naturally support your health and wellbeing. Essential oil education and DIY classes are offered weekly as well so you can stay up to date on the latest information.
