Warrior Mom: 7 Secrets to Bold, Brave Resilience by JJ Virgin – Retail Value $16.00 (found here for $9.48)

From Amazon:

Inside every mother is a fierce, resilient, intuitive woman who has the ability to tap into an indomitable mindset and create heroic outcomes—for her children, her family, her community and for herself—she is a Warrior Mom.

In Warrior Mom, (previously published as Miracle Mindset), celebrity health expert and four-time New York Times bestselling author, JJ Virgin reveals how one life-altering event taught her to trust her instincts, pay attention to the details that matter and defy the odds—and she shares how you can too.

In 2012, JJ Virgin was in a hospital room next to her sixteen-year-old son who was struck by a hit-and-run driver and left for dead. She was told by doctors that he wouldn't last through the night and to let him go. With every reason to give up, JJ chose instead to invest her energy into the hope that her son would not just survive, but thrive. In Warrior Mom, she shares the lessons that gave her the courage to overcome the worst moment of her life.

If JJ Virgin sounds familiar, it might be because you remember her NYT bestseller The Virgin Diet. The book begins with an account of the day that her teenage son was hit by a car and the impossible survival odds that she was given. As a fellow mother, I instantly empathized with how she must have been feeling and found myself quickly devouring this book to see not only the results but her reflection on that significant time in her life. I think that her story is not only moving, but her advice is level headed and sound.

Oxford Momma Box February 2019 - Resilience Crystal Infused Aromatherapy Mist Front Oxford Momma Box February 2019 - Resilience Crystal Infused Aromatherapy Mist Back Oxford Momma Box February 2019 - Resilience Crystal Infused Aromatherapy Mist Closer Front

Resilience Crystal Infused Aromatherapy Mist (30 mL) – Retail Value $12.12, Listed Value $12

This lovely mist is designed to be uplifting – containing lemon oil (an instant mood-booster), eucalyptus oil (which aids in concentration and focus), and crystal-infused with amethyst (contained inside each bottle) to help bring calm and balance to your nervous system. It is vegan, organic, and handmade by Etsy shop BellaLunaLuzShop.

I work from home and often defuse oils in my home office each afternoon when I need a pick me up. What I love about this mist is how instant it is! Just a single spray instantly made my workspace smell lovely - the combo of eucalyptus and lemon is so clean, fresh, and invigorating to me. I really liked the concept of this mist, as well as the execution and product. The amethyst in the bottle is fairly small, you can hear it jingle around against the glass when you move the bottle around – but it doesn't take up much volume and I am pleased with the amount of actual spray in this little bottle! What a fun discovery!

Seasons of Love Sugar Scrub (4 oz. Orange Creamsicle) – Retail Value $9.99, Listed Value $10

I love a good sugar scrub and this little jar didn’t disappoint! I’ve always been a big fan of creamsicle flavored and scented products, so I was pleased when I received this item in my box. This handmade scrub is made from sugar, apricot oil, avocado oil, shea butter, coconut oil, stearic acid, emulsifying wax, orange peel, and essential oils. It had a very nice texture in the shower where I used it and left my skin feeling soft and hydrated. What I will also note, it didn’t make a mess in my shower which is another big win in my book! How cute is the sticker inside of the label? I’m going to definitely have to favorite this Etsy seller as well!

Exclusive! Bathroom Art Print from Oxford Momma – Listed Value $8

This 4-inch x 6-inch print is pretty cute and would look adorable framed in a bathroom. I'm a big fan of happy little messages like this around. With its plain back, I also am inclined to keep it with my stationary and use it as a card to send a happy note to someone.

Pink Rose Quartz Stones from Brazil – Listed Value $4

These stones are said to symbolize compassion and love – something we can all use more of! I actually have a little crystal garden on my window sill, so these are a happy addition to my crystal stash and I do believe they omit goodness into my workspace.

The Verdict: I think that Oxford Momma does a fantastic job curating a lovely self-care box with this subscription, time after time. I love the fact that this box isn’t targeted at new moms, or experienced moms, or empty nesters – it is applicable for ALL. Another subtle reminder that we’re all in this life together, right?

Using a combination of retail and listed values, the box contents total $50.11 and the subscription box cost is $44.95, including free shipping. The book and scrub can be found online for less than the listed values and the exclusive items (stones and print) have what I might consider slightly inflated list values as well. On the Oxford Momma site, they do advertise that every box is valued at $75+ so I do feel like this month, the promised value was not delivered.

I was thinking about this one till I saw the over pricing. For the coat, I just purchased a book I’ve been wanting and a bunch of great stuff from, Fortune Cookie soap. Thanks for the honesty. I would never purchase from a company that deceives people like this. How awful.

Hi Ronda,

I’m Tiffany Barry, the founder of Oxford Momma, and I just wanted to pop in to provide some clarity on the pricing. This box reviewed was the February Box which was priced at our old price of just under $25 per month plus $5 shipping where we promised a value of $40-60 on average.

As of March 1, our new pricing of $44.95 (plus free shipping) is reflective of the new box contents which will be valued at $75 or more. April’s box valued will even be close to $100, something we’re very excited about!

As a courtesy to our current subscribers, we also upgraded their March box to the $44.95 box a month before their new pricing started, so they received that upgraded box at the old lower price. We wanted to make sure to give our current subscribers the opportunity to try the upgraded box before committing to the price increase.

I hope this helps clear things up! We’ve definitely tried to be as clear as we possibly can throughout the process of the Oxford Momma revamp, but we understand that reviews can sometimes lag behind any site changes we have made on our end.

In this case, there were just some small information delays related to review timing and when public facing changes were made on our website. We most definitely do not want to deceive our subscribers at all and, if anything, tried to over-communicate these upcoming changes.

Feel free to let us know if you have any questions at all! We’re always available to chat.
