Celebrating Wellness, Moms & Small Business Month

May is one of our favorite months—it’s a time to celebrate so many things close to our hearts: wellness, motherhood, mental health, and small businesses. Because they are all so important to us we’ll be diving into each topic as this month progresses. This week is especially meaningful as it’s National Small Business Week, and we’re reflecting with so much gratitude.

Did you know there are more than 34 million small businesses* powering our economy and our future? That stat alone gives us chills. We’re honored to be part of that number—and even more honored to be building something special alongside our incredible community.

This week, we’re taking it back to the beginning: the year that started it all—2018. We recently filled out an application and saw that date pop up. It stopped us in our tracks. So much has happened since then.

From launching on Amazon and UrbanOutfitters.com last year, to being featured on the TODAY Show, completing the Ulta Muse Accelerator, and most recently launching our Curl Refresh Spray—these are not just wins for OCOA, they are wins for all of us.

Of course, it hasn’t all been smooth. This year alone we’ve dealt with tariffs, packaging delays, and all the growing pains that come with building something from the ground up. But the love and encouragement from this sisterhood has been our anchor and our fuel. You all push us to keep going, even when things get hard.

So this month, we’re celebrating YOU. Thank you for being here, for believing in us, and for sharing this journey. If you know more hermanas or hermanos who would vibe with our mission, please send them our way. A referral or testimonial is the best gift we could ask for during Small Business Month.

Don’t forget—when you give a friend $15, you get $15 too. Be sure to sign up and spread the love!

Thank you for being part of our story. We’re just getting started.

Abrazos,

Cory and Nicol
