So that's our biggest retailer to date.

It's been a wild ride.

When we originally started, we did 16,000 in sales.

Then the next year, we did 33.

And then the year after that, we did 120.

And then we were lucky enough to be on a show called Shark Tank, which was really an amazing experience.

And we did about 440,000 that year.

Then we came back down to earth a little bit in 2025, and we're back down to about 105,000.

Got it.

Yeah.

Sure, so Sarah, listening to your episode of the podcast while I was running, there were so many touch points that I felt I could connect with you and ask you about.

Our moms being a big inspiration in our life was one of them.

But the question that I centered on, because I think it's a big issue for a lot of founders in our spot, whether you're successful or not, we all have that little bit of self-doubt.

So even as our companies and our ideas start to work, self-doubt never disappears.

It just gets a little quieter.

How did you learn to trust your instincts and keep moving when you weren't always sure you were right?

I feel the same way.

I feel like without the business, there'd be less purpose in my life to overcome those challenges and overcome those emotional hurdles.

The business has turned into one of my prime motivators to help other people feel better physically, makes me feel accomplished mentally and emotionally, if that makes sense.

Yeah, totally.
