The Story of Didi Whip: Where Strength Meets Softness

Last year, my dear friend Kira - a gifted yogi, leader, and one of those rare humans who radiates fun just by being in the room - made me something special. It was her signature whipped body blend that we have all loved for years, infused with a specially curated blend for my new Didi Retreats business. It was made with so much intention and heart that it instantly became part of our Didi Retreat ritual.

At my first reatreat, each guest received a jar as a welcome gift, and our practitioners received one as a thank-you - a small gesture that somehow carried the essence of Didi: care, connection, and that quiet, grounded magic women create when they move with heart.

That first batch became a little legend. Guests have messaged me weeks later asking, “What was that cream you gave us?” or “Can I buy more?” I hadn’t really planned to make it again, but the energy of that little jar - its scent, its softness, its story — wouldn’t let me go. So, I started blending again.

Here’s the truth: I never measure anything. I go by feel, scent, and zero science - the way the air shifts when the blend is right. Maybe that’s why each batch is a little different, but somehow, it always lands in harmony. My version turned out a little bolder — more “hit you in the face” — and I love it that way. It’s alive.

The rose and lime bring bright, feminine energy — warm, open, and radiant — while the sandalwood and bergamot anchor it in a quiet, grounded strength. Together they create a relationship - two energies dancing, each distinct but deeply in sync.

The base is pure and simple: virgin organic coconut oil and organic shea butter, hand-whipped into a creamy texture that melts into a silky oil the second it touches your skin. It’s both things — strong and soft. Like the women I surround myself with. Like Didi herself.

When I think about Didi Whip, I think about her — the trusted sister, the steady one, the soft one, the fierce one. The woman who leads, lifts, and loves without measuring, just intuitively knowing how much to give.

So yes, I’ve made more. Some will be gifts this holiday season, and a few extra will be available for those who’ve been asking to buy one. It feels right to share something that started as a love offering and has become a reflection of what Didi stands for: sisterhood, balance, and the beautiful way we support one another and shine.
