Wow, what an incredible milestone! As I reflect on 8 years of CJ Essentials LLC, I am filled with gratitude and awe at how far this journey has taken me. From humble beginnings to where we are today, every step has been a testament to God’s grace, resilience, and the power of community.
To God Be All the Glory!
When I founded CJ Essentials in 2017, I had no idea what the outcome would be. This business was born from a deeply personal place: my battle with cancer. During one of the toughest periods of my life, I turned to blending natural ingredients as a form of therapy and self-care. Little did I know that this hobby would grow into a thriving business, now known as The Spa Suite, formerly CJ Body & Hair Essentials.
My goal was simple: to create all-natural products that would allow people to enjoy luxurious in-home spa treatments while addressing some of the health challenges we face today. Whether it’s through our soothing candles, nourishing body butters, or relaxing herbal teas, CJ Essentials aims to promote wellness, relaxation, and a better quality of life.
The Journey: Blessings and Challenges
These past 8 years have been nothing short of a rollercoaster. There were moments of doubt and hardship, but the good far outweighed the bad. Through it all, God’s plan for me has been clear, and I’ve remained committed to following His lead. This journey has allowed me to help hundreds of women, men, and children through our products, bringing self-care and wellness into their lives.
One of my favorite scriptures, Philippians 4:13, has been my guiding light: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” This verse reminds me daily that no challenge is too great when faith and determination are at the core of everything we do.
Expanding the Mission: Empowering Entrepreneurs
This year, I’ve been blessed to take CJ Essentials LLC to new heights by launching the "Empowering Entrepreneurs for Success" Series. This initiative has allowed me to support other entrepreneurs and crafters in promoting their businesses. Helping others shine has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey, and I’m so excited to continue mentoring, teaching, and inspiring others in their own paths to success.
Looking Ahead to 2025
As I look to the future, I’m filled with hope and excitement. While I don’t know the exact plans God has for me, I trust Him completely. I’m ready to carry out His vision and continue serving through CJ Essentials LLC.
2025 will be a year of growth, impact, and new opportunities. Whether it’s through making products, teaching classes, or mentoring others, I am committed to creating value and making a difference.
A Message of Encouragement
To anyone who has a dream, I encourage you to pursue it with everything you have. Life is too short not to follow your passions. Start where you are, use what you have, and trust the process. The road may be challenging, but the rewards of doing what you love are beyond measure. Take it from me—there are no regrets when you step out in faith.
Thank You
Thank you to everyone who has supported CJ Essentials LLC over the years. Whether you’ve purchased a product, attended one of my classes, or joined our mentoring program, you’ve played a part in this amazing journey. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to serve you and look forward to many more years of creating, teaching, and inspiring.
Here’s to 8 years of faith, resilience, and empowerment—and to many more to come!
With love and blessings,
Carlen Jones
Founder of CJ Essentials LLC
