When she was younger, Beatrice Dixon suffered with bacterial vaginosis for eight months. One night, an ancestor gave her the ingredients to heal herself in a dream. From that insightful dream, she created the formula for a healthy, clean feminine wash. In 2014, Dixon launched The Honey Pot Company, a plant-based feminine hygiene line created with a goal to provide women with a healthy alternative to feminine care that is free of chemicals, parabens, carcinogens and sulfates. The rest is history.

With experience in pharmaceuticals, retail and natural foods, Dixon has the insight and expertise to bring the innovative concept of a plant-based feminine care system to the marketplace. Unlike mass market and conventional feminine care brands, consumers will be able to get all of their feminine care needs met under one brand as The Honey Pot Company currently offers feminine washes, wipes, tampons, pads, mommy-to-be products, and soon-to-be additional offerings in both the feminine hygiene and feminine care segments.

Today, The Honey Pot Company’s products can be found online and in stores nationwide at Target, Walmart, Urban Outfitters, Walgreens, Bed Bath and Beyond, Wegmans and Whole Foods, among other retailers.

An empowering African American female entrepreneur, Dixon has been a recipient of the Sundial and Unilever’s multimillion-dollar New Voices fund; was 1 of the first 40 women of color to raise one million in venture capital; and has been featured in T-Pain's School of Business, BuzzFeed's Ladylike series, Today Show, The New York Times, Entrepreneur, ELLE, ESSENCE and Forbes, to name a few.

Most recently, she was named one of Entrepreneur's top 100 groundbreaking women entrepreneurs of 2019; her company won a 2020 ESSENCE Best in Black Beauty Award; and she received a CEW Indie 65 Award in 2019, honoring beauty’s independent companies.

Through her diverse background and experience, Dixon continues to make a mark in the world of natural health and retail with a truly revolutionary approach to feminine health and sexual wellness.

On July 20, 2015, Montgomery was reacquired by the Minnesota Lynx in a trade for Monica Wright.[10] Montgomery ended up winning her first WNBA championship with the Lynx after they defeated the Indiana Fever in the Finals.

In 2016, Montgomery played a full season for the Lynx for the  first time since her rookie season. She averaged 7.5 ppg off the bench  and the Lynx were in the hunt to win back-to-back championships, but  lost to the Los Angeles Sparks in the Finals.

In 2017, Montgomery averaged 8.0 ppg and achieved a new  career-high in field goal shooting percentage. Montgomery also started  in 12 of 34 games played while Whalen was sidelined with a hand injury.  The Lynx continued to be a championship contender in the league after  making it to the Finals for the sixth time in seven seasons, setting up a  rematch with the Sparks. This time the Lynx would win in 5 games,  winning their fourth championship in seven seasons, tying the  now-defunct Houston Comets for most championship titles.

On February 1, 2018, Montgomery signed a multi-year contract with the Atlanta Dream.[11]  She would be the starting point guard for the team. On August 12, 2018,  Montgomery scored a season-high 30 points along with a career-high 8  three-pointers in an 86-77 victory over the New York Liberty,  tying the regular season record for most three-pointers in a game. She  also hit 7 of her 8 three-pointers in the second half, breaking the WNBA  record for most three-pointers in a half.[12]  By the end of the season, Montgomery set the franchise record for most  three-pointers made in a season. The Dream would finish 23-11 with the  number 2 seed in the league, receiving a double-bye to the semi-finals.  Without the team's leading scorer Angel McCoughtry who was sidelined with a knee injury, the Dream were short handed in the playoffs as they lost in five games to the Washington Mystics.
