Meet Renee Garacochea: Entrepreneur & COO | Glissant
top of page

My sister Robyn's battle with brain cancer and her suffering opened my eyes to the healing potential of CBD. While she may have lost the fight, this experience forever changed me. Witnessing her pain, I became determined to create something that could genuinely alleviate pain in women, and CBD emerged as my solution.

Now, experiencing menopause myself, I've personally encountered the challenges it poses, and it's clear that this phase of life is often neglected in conversation. I'm determined to change that for all women. Drawing upon my over 30 years of experience in crafting beauty products and the medical knowledge of a woman's body from doctors, we're on a mission to transform women's lives. And for those of us who have been married for a while, just wait until you try this – you're going to love it!

Renée's entrepreneurial instincts didn't stop there. Within a few years, she founded Knotty Girl, a company specializing in gentle hair care and body products for adults and children. The inspiration for this line came from her niece's sensitivities, prompting her to create products gentle enough for children yet effective for adults. Some signature products from Knotty Girl included the Pink Princess Cotton Candy Shampoo and the Drama Queen Sparkle lotion, known for their delightful aromas and skin benefits.

Always true to her innovative spirit, Renée even envisioned a Wellness business opportunity involving her doctor, and... GLISSANT was born.

I dedicate the CBD product in loving memory to my beautiful sister, Robyn Garacochea.
