Dear Friends,
As I sit here reflecting on this past year, I'm filled with so many emotions- I don't mean to sound like Ron Burgundy in his "glass case of emotion" moment, but I’m honestly a little overwhelmed with gratitude right now—so thank you for letting me share this with you.
What started back in 2014—mixing herbs together in my kitchen with my two little boys, because I needed relief from my own pain—has somehow grown into this beautiful, crazy thing we all share. I still can’t quite believe it. This year brought lots of exciting moments I never dared to dream of: OUR little products on ABC's Good Morning America in April, and then a surprise call and incredible kindness of Brooke Burke choosing to endorse us and share Sacksy Thyme with her community. Those felt like gentle gifts from the universe, and I’m so humbly grateful for every one.
We’ve quietly grown a bit more—reaching new homes, spas, and boutiques—all while still handcrafting everything right here in our small Newark, Delaware warehouse with the same care and clean ingredients we’ve always used. And with that growth comes a different set of responsibilities, and an uncharted territory that we are finding our way through. But truly, the biggest blessings aren’t in the features or the growth. They’re YOUR messages. Your emails, calls and quiet notes about how our heating packs helped someone through a difficult time, eased cramps, or simply brought a moment of peace in an otherwise chaotic world. I received one just today that made me cry bittersweet tears. Those stories remind me every day what this is truly about—it’s about all of us choosing gentle, natural ways to care for ourselves and each other. I am blessed to be able to do something I love and make a difference in so many lives.
I’m so thankful for my small but very mighty team who show up with so much heart every single day, and for our partners who believe in our simple mission. And most of all, I’m thankful for YOU—for trusting us, for sharing all of your stories, for being part of this journey. God has a plan, and with him, all things are indeed possible.
As we step into 2026, I wish you happiness, healing, and quiet moments of comfort & joy.
Thank you for letting this little dream become part of your lives.
With ALL my gratitude and love,
Susie Conley
Founder & CEO, Sacksy Thyme
