Hi, I'm Rachel!
The wife, momma, and big dreamer behind Balanced Home Apothecary.
Having sensitive skin since birth prompted me early in life to begin researching ingredients that are often found in big brand products. I understood pretty quickly into this journey that care for toxin-free ingredients is not often a priority.
This is where seeking toxin-free, natural alternatives began for me. Over the years, I fell in love with the power of natural ingredients, and having natural, non-toxic tools to aid in our family's wellness.
In 2020, I quit my job to stay at home with our children - something I had always dreamed of. But being a bit of a social butterfly and always a dreamer, it didn't take long before the need to share my passion with others began to bubble over.
With the birth of our children, I found myself frequently researching blends and wishing for a one-stop shop. I saw a need to eliminate the research and burden of having to buy 10 oils for one blend and create ready-to-use essential oil products. Hence, Balanced Home Apothecary was born!
I lovingly call myself "oil bestie," as it is my passion to educate and equip, and take the fear out of switching to natural alternatives. I aim to create a unique and less intimidating approach to use and understand the power natural ingredients can bring to your life.
It is truly an honor to have you here. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
