Superwomen with Rebecca Minkoff

The Power of Trusting Your Gut


Listen Later

Bea Dixon built a $380M brand from a dream — literally.


This week on SUPERWOMEN, I’m joined by Bea Dixon, co-founder and CEO of The Honey Pot. After receiving a vision from her late grandmother, she created a plant-based solution that would transform feminine care. From handing out samples in parking lots to attending trade shows, Bea and her lean team scaled the company into a nationally loved brand and ultimately sold it for millions.


But that success came with hard choices. Behind the headlines is a story of staying grounded, walking away from the wrong money, and trusting your gut every step of the way.
