  • The Honey Pot Company

    CEO and Co-founder Bea Dixon says she launched The Honey Pot after a dream from her ancestors told her how to heal from her chronic bacterial vaginosis—and the rest is wellness history. The brand’s herbal feminine washes, wipes, and menstrual care products are plant-based and pH-balanced. 

  • Homebody

    For Rebecca Grammer-Ybarra, healing started in the tub. After surviving a car accident that left her with spinal and shoulder injuries, she created Homebody, a bath therapy brand that’s part science, part self-love.
