2021 Diamond Retreat

Qualifications

A. Though you have previously been paid at the rank of Diamond, you are invited to attend based on the first time you qualify as a Diamond for three consecutive months.

For example, Jodi was paid as a Diamond for the first time in September 2020; however, she did not achieve three consecutive months as a Diamond until February, March, and April 2021. Because she achieved three consecutive months as a Diamond for the first time during the 2022 Diamond Retreat qualification period, she would be invited to attend the 2022 Diamond Retreat.

A. You will be invited to attend a retreat based on the qualification period in which your third qualifying month falls. For example, Mark was paid as a Diamond in December 2020 for the first time. He maintained Diamond rank in January and February 2021. Because his third consecutive month of Diamond falls within the 2022 qualification period, he would be invited to attend the 2022 Diamond Retreat, even though his first two consecutive months occurred in the previous qualification period.

A. If you qualify for the Diamond Retreat for the first time but are unable to attend, you may defer your qualification to the next retreat one time. To request a deferral, send an email to recognition@youngliving.com prior to the event. Include your name, member number, rank, and reason for the deferral.
Deferrals will not be granted without proper notification and are not automatic. You must notify us if you do not plan to attend, or you will forfeit attendance to that recognition retreat.
Qualifying members may defer their recognition retreat only once per rank. If you defer, you will receive an email invitation to register for the next retreat after new qualifiers are determined.

A. No. Invitations to attend the Diamond Retreat must come as a result of achieving one of the Diamond ranks for three consecutive months for the first time or by meeting the 12-month qualification requirement. By qualifying in either of these scenarios, you will earn the retreat with all expenses paid (see the following question to learn what is covered).

A. Young Living will cover the cost of coach flights for Diamond and Crown Diamond qualifiers and their qualified guests and the cost of business-class flights for Royal Crown Diamond qualifiers and their qualified guests to attend the Diamond Retreat. Additionally, Young Living will cover the cost of accommodations, certain meals, event swag, activities, and ground transportation to and from the airport and event-sponsored activities. Incidental costs, such as meals during travel and airline baggage fees, are the member’s responsibility.

A. You will receive an invitation to attend the Diamond Retreat as long as you maintain the rank of Diamond or above for all 12 months of the qualification period. For example, Katie begins the qualification period as a returning Royal Crown Diamond and qualifies at that level for the first seven months. She then falls to Diamond in month eight and qualifies as Diamond for the remaining four months of the qualification period. Katie would still qualify for the Diamond Retreat and would be recognized as Royal Crown Diamond there (based on the existing policy of achieving rank at least once every six months to maintain your current rank).
In a different example, Diego begins the qualification period as a returning Diamond and qualifies at that level for the first three months. In month four, Diego falls back to Platinum and qualifies as a Platinum for the remainder of the qualification period (nine months). Diego would not receive an invitation to the Diamond Retreat since he did not maintain at least Diamond for the entire 12-month qualification period.

A. Leaders whose rank fluctuates during the Diamond Retreat qualification period—but who still maintain Diamond or above—will be recognized based on the highest rank they’ve achieved at least once in the previous six months, per Young Living’s policy.

For example: Erica begins the qualification period as a Crown Diamond, but in the final six months (months 7–12) she falls to Diamond. Since Erica’s highest achieved rank was Diamond during the last six months of the qualification period, she would be recognized as a Diamond at the Diamond Retreat.
