As the year winds down, I find myself reflecting on the number 7. While I’ve never been deeply into numerology, this number has always held a quiet, personal significance. In spiritual traditions, 7 is tied to growth, introspection, and transformation—a reminder to look inward and move forward with intention.
This feels especially poignant now. 2024 has been a year of challenges, growth, and profound gratitude. It’s also been a reminder of how deeply intertwined our journey is with yours.
"When I think back to the early days of Momotaro Apotheca, I could never have imagined that my quest to find relief for my own discomfort would lead to a community as compassionate and connected as this one."
We’ve laughed, cried, learned together, and most importantly found a place to share our stories without shame. That’s the magic of vulnerability—it creates space for growth, for change, and for connection.
This year, we celebrated milestones: developing new products (you will meet them next year), staying fiercely independent, and continuing to challenge stigmas around sexual and reproductive health. None of this would have been possible without you—our customers, our advocates, and, frankly, our family.
As we step into the next chapter, our focus is clear:
- Innovation: We’re excited to expand our offerings, bringing you solutions that meet your needs while staying rooted in science and sustainability.
- Independence: Staying true to our values means everything. We’ll continue making decisions that prioritize integrity over convenience.
- Community: Your feedback inspires every product, email, and decision we make. You are the heart of this company, and we’re so grateful for your trust and honesty.
We also want to honor the people who have helped us get here. From the small business owners who stock us on their shelves to the partners who champion our mission, you’ve all played a part in shaping this brand.
And to our customers: Thank you. For every review, story, and kind word you’ve shared. For every dollar you’ve spent, knowing you’re investing in something bigger than just products. Your support allows us to grow—not just as a company, but as individuals committed to making a difference.
As we close out the year, I hope you’ll take a moment to reflect on your own cycles of growth and change. Maybe you’ll find, as I have, that even in the messiness of life, there’s beauty to be found. We’re all navigating this together, imperfectly but intentionally, and that’s worth celebrating.
From all of us at Momotaro Apotheca, we wish you a year ahead filled with joy, health, and curiosity. Let’s keep challenging the norms, asking the hard questions, and embracing the mystery of it all.
Here’s to the next chapter,
Lindsay Wynn
Co-founder & CEO, Momotaro Apotheca
