After a decade of building Goddess Body into a trusted natural reproductive wellness brand serving Black & Brown women, we're ready to identify and leverage the precise growth levers that will propel us beyond $1M in annual revenue. Our week 2 sprint focuses on customer discovery and insight mining to uncover what's blocking our leap from 6-figure success to 7-figure scalability.
This UX research initiative is designed to uncover the critical growth levers that will propel our natural reproductive wellness brand from six-figure meltable revenue to consistent seven-figure annual success.
To truly unlock our next level of growth, we must deeply understand the nuanced challenges, desires, and aspirations of our cherished customers. These insights will inform our strategy.
Customer Problems
Customers want natural solutions but feel overwhelmed or unsure how to start and stay consistent.
They often use our products casually, not understanding how to integrate them into a complete wellness regimen.
Hesitation for subscriptions stems from lack of education or unclear value.
Many don't realize the full power of our product line beyond "freshness" for issues like hormone balance or womb health.
Some buy once and don’t return, not due to dislike, but because the experience didn’t lead deeper.
They struggle with chronic reproductive health issues, conflicting advice, and mistrust in traditional healthcare, leading to inconsistent routines.
Customer Motivations
Customers are motivated to feel confident, sexy, balanced, clean, and deeply connected to their divine feminine energy.
They seek to reclaim their health naturally for issues like odor, hormonal imbalances, vaginal dryness, or pH disruptions, without harsh chemicals.
There's a strong desire to be seen and supported in a holistic lifestyle, not just as a purchase, and to feel luxurious, empowered, and wise in their self-care.
Inspired by natural healing and self-love, they want to glow from the inside out, emotionally, physically, and energetically.
Customer Goals
Our customers aim to simplify their self-care rituals using proven, natural products they can trust.
They want to be educated enough to confidently choose and use products, striving for real, lasting transformation rather than temporary fixes.
A key goal is to feel connected to a community of women healing together, restoring hormonal balance naturally, and building consistent, sacred self-care practices.
They seek to eliminate womb-related symptoms, feel empowered, educated, and beautiful in their wellness journey, and support brands that truly reflect their values and lived experience.

Synthesis & Framework Implementation
By synthesizing these insights through the "As a user, I want to..." framework, we identified the exact friction points preventing customers from fully integrating Goddess Body into their wellness lifestyles.
This approach allows us to understand the customer journey from their perspective, revealing opportunities for deeper engagement and sustained growth.
We've synthesized these insights into key user stories from our Goddess Body customers:
Trust & Safety
As a user, I want to feel clean, balanced, and sexy every day, without needing to guess what products are safe for my yoni. I want products that are already vetted by women like me, with results I can feel instantly and long-term.
Educated Shopping
As a user, I want to feel like I’m being educated while I shop, not just sold to. I want clarity on why certain ingredients matter, how to use things, and what’s best for my specific body and cycle.
Sacred Self-Care
As a user, I want my feminine care to feel sacred and luxurious not like a chore. I’m tired of harsh soaps and sterile products. Give me something sensual, beautiful, and healing… like a ritual, not a routine.
Consistency in Habit
As a user, I want to stay consistent with my self-care but I need help building the habit. I forget to reorder or don’t know how often I should be using products. Subscriptions, guidance, or reminders would help me commit.
Community Connection
As a user, I want to feel part of a community of women who are healing and elevating together. I’m more likely to stay loyal if I feel like I’m growing with others, not doing it alone. Give me stories, testimonials, and sisterhood.
Culturally Relevant Care
As a user, I want to buy from a brand that understands Black women’s bodies, hormones, and healing needs. Most brands ignore our needs or offer generic solutions. I need to know this brand was made for women like me, with cultural and scientific knowledge.
Spiritual Alignment
As a user, I want my purchases to align with my spirituality and health journey. I’m intentional about what I put in, on, and around my body. Show me how this brand honors mind, body, and soul, through packaging, purpose, and ingredients.
Confident Exploration
As a user, I want to try new products, but I’m cautious unless I’m sure they’ll work. I trust the oil and wash, but I’m hesitant to branch out. Give me samples, bundles, or education to help me explore confidently.
Luxurious Experience
As a user, I want my order to feel like an experience from checkout to unboxing. Fast shipping, gorgeous packaging, and good energy matters to me. I want to feel like a Goddess from the moment it arrives.
Authentic Brand Support
As a user, I want to support a Black-owned business that actually walks the talk. I care about your story, your mission, and your receipts. I’ll spend more—and stay longer—if I know you’re real, relatable, and rooted in and for US.
