The Journey to Relief
Jimbo & Jules was born from a deeply personal healing journey. At age 14, I (Jimbo) sustained four concussions within one year – three from football and one from ski racing. The aftermath was a grueling battle with post-concussive syndrome: constant pain, neurologists’ offices, and wearing sunglasses indoors just to cope with the light.
After months of feeling either no relief or completely numbed by traditional options, I discovered CBD. For the first time, the headaches subsided, the brain fog lifted, and the sunglasses came off. It wasn’t just a remedy; it was the spark of a lifelong reverence for the hemp plant.
Taking Health Into Our Own Hands
Years later, during my junior year of college, I faced another mountain: chronic Lyme disease. Neuropathy, insomnia, anxiety, and intense joint pain became my daily reality. I was told there was no cure. Refusing to accept that reality, I took my health into my own hands, eventually finding healing through Bee Venom Therapy – a rigorous year-long process of stinging myself with 30 honeybees per week.
During this time, I met Jules. She was navigating her own journey with chronic back pain, and we quickly bonded over a shared frustration: the pain relief products on the market were either inconsistent, ineffective, or so filled with chemicals we didn't want them anywhere near our bodies.
"We set out to create remedies using the most natural and therapeutic ingredients the Earth has to offer. We believe that when you show up for yourself, you are better equipped to show up for the Earth."
From the Kitchen to the Community
Our first creation was our CBD Relief Salve. I was amazed at how significantly it soothed the pain and eased the inflammation on my back where I was stinging. Then, we began crafting tinctures like our Hemp Oil and Sleep Deep to help with the persistent symptoms of anxiety and insomnia. Again, the results were incredible!
What started as a personal quest quickly evolved into helping friends and family who were dealing with their own challenges. I watched my Mom go from being crippled with arthritis to being able to do the thing she loves most in life, gardening, pain-free. My friend’s Dad began sleeping through the night for the first time in twenty years.
We knew we had to bring these remedies to the world, but we faced a reckoning: creating a product-based business would inevitably create a lot of waste, and that was in direct conflict with our love for the Earth.
Our Planet-First Model
We decided that the only way to help people heal was to ensure the planet healed with them. And so, our Planet-First business model was born.
At Jimbo & Jules, the Earth has the first seat at the table. This filter guides every decision we make:
- Ingredients: Organic, sustainably and ethically sourced, and third-party lab tested.
- Packaging: Home compostable, highly recyclable, or reusable.
- Initiatives: Native habitat protection and restoration as a core part of our mission.
Our Mission
