Conversations with Tj Cronley

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tj Cronley

Hi TJ, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
In 2015, my husband and I decided to focus on improving our health, which led us to begin taking supplements. However, I experienced discomfort from these supplements, and I was unsure of the cause. In 2017, while attending a knitting class taught by my friend Jennie, I was introduced to Young Living essential oils.

After purchasing a YL Premium Starter Bundle, I found that I enjoyed using the essential oils my husband and I both slept better too. I discontinued the supplements, and over the next few months, my pain was gone! . This prompted me to explore more natural products.

I discovered that essential oils can offer various benefits for both physical and emotional well-being. As a result, we chose to replace all our chemical cleaners with Thieves cleaner, which is plant-based. Since making this change, we have noticed improvements in our health and well-being, as our bodies no longer have to process additional chemicals.

I also run a pet business called TJ’s Pets on Wheels. It’s an in-your-home pet-sitting business and we do daily visits and vacations. I currently have 8 girls working for me. I’ve discovered that Young Living essential oils are a safe option for pets. It’s reassuring to know that my pets aren’t walking on floors treated with harsh chemicals. Pets often lick their paws, and using cleaners with strong chemicals can be harmful to them. This way, I can keep my home clean while also ensuring it’s a safe environment for my furry friends.

I find that my two businesses complement each other well, and I feel fortunate to be involved in both the chemical free wellness journey and pet care.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
I enjoy sharing my knowledge about essential oils, but one of my challenges is getting in front of lots of people, and trying to be authentic can be difficult.
But because I believe in the benefits of essential oils and being chemical-free. I push through that discomfort because I genuinely want to help others improve their well-being.

Managing my pet business can be quite busy and occasionally overwhelming. However, I have a deep love for animals, and I feel fortunate to have a team of responsible individuals who work with me. Their dedication and commitment make a significant difference in the day-to-day operations of the business.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I love educating people on how to live a chemical-free lifestyle and the benefits of using essential oils. I make it a point to learn something new every day, coming up with DIY ways to incorporate essential oils into everyday life.

I’m often referred to as the “oily lady” who also runs a pet business, blending my passion for essential oils with my love for animals. I teach others how to make rollerballs that can help with pain, sleep, hormones, energy, skincare, and overall wellness. Plus, I show them how to make their homes smell amazing without using chemical products like plug-ins and candles.

What I’m most proud of is when I receive a text or phone call from someone saying they’re sleeping better, feeling happier, and relieved to be using chemical-free cleaning products like laundry dishes and hand soap. Hearing how they feel better makes it all worthwhile.

What sets me apart is my consistency and authenticity. My goal is to help others learn how to live chemical-free, eat healthily, exercise, and prioritize overall wellness for themselves and their pets

So maybe we end on discussing what matters most to you and why?
What matters the most to me I wish everyone would stop using chemical cleaners!!

There’s an alarming amount of cancer and illnesses in the world, often linked to the harsh chemicals we’re exposed to every day. I want people to understand that they can be the gatekeepers of their homes. While we can’t control everything in our environment, we have the power to control what we bring into our living spaces.

I envision a world where plant-based cleaners are the norm, where people find alternative ways to feel better instead of relying solely on pills. This shift not only enhances our well-being but also helps our pets live longer, healthier lives too. And I wish people would stop using chemicals to treat their lawns.
That, to me, is what truly matters.
