Dear Beloved Community,
As I reflect on the journey that led to the creation of our business, I am filled with gratitude for the unwavering support and love that has shaped its purpose. This venture was born out of a deep desire to foster health within our family, a journey that began with my husband Jedidiah’s commitment to juicing at home, driven by the hope of healing myself and my daughter. Today that hope continues but in a new form…
What started as a personal quest for well-being quickly transformed into a communal experience. Friends, touched by our story, began leaving bottles of orange juice bottles at our doorstep to be filled, a symbol of their own yearning for healing. The realization struck me – there was a profound need in our community for wellness—a call that demanded an answer.
Through my own challenging healing journey, I found solace in the boundless love and support from doctors, the community, and the nurturing embrace of Mother Nature. Yet, amidst it all, the most powerful source of love and determination came from my husband and co-founder, Jedidiah. His unwavering commitment to restoring my health became the guiding light that propels me forward to this day.
Though Jedidiah has transitioned to pursue his gifts of healing through massage, his love remains an integral part of our business, imprinted in every bottle we produce. You can find him at the shop every morning at 7 am, a testament to his enduring dedication.
As I stand before my staff, team, customers, and our cherished community, I set forth the intention for others to experience the same love that fueled my recovery. My name, meaning “worthy of love,” encapsulates my belief that every individual deserves this profound and unconditional love. I earnestly hope that our beverage company and juice shop serve as vessels, bringing this love into the lives of our valued customers. Beyond providing nourishing juices, we aim to create a space where you can be heard, seen, and supported.
Our journey began with a focus on healing, and that commitment endures. As we expand, we continue to prioritize products that support the body in navigating the demands of everyday life. Whether you’re a busy parent, a working professional, or a student caught in the whirlwind of a hectic world, we aspire to offer you a better, healthier option.
I take immense pride in our home delivery service, now spanning a 25-mile radius and reaching Celebration, FL. Recently, we launched our GetWell Frozen shots, available for pick-up, home delivery, and national shipping. Excitingly, more products tailored for children and athletes are on the horizon.
When I recall the days of vulnerability, lying in bed and fervently praying for healing, I am reminded of the love that enveloped me in diverse forms. It is this love that we aim to encapsulate and share – our special ingredient.
If you find yourself with a need we can support, please reach out. It would be an honor to accompany you on your life’s journey. Use the code “OrlandoMom” to receive your first subscription delivery for free.
