At Ceres Chill, we talk a lot about showing up. Showing up for moms who are juggling careers, families, and an often-overlooked mountain of challenges. Showing up for families who are doing their best with a system that wasn’t built to support them. And showing up for the people behind the scenes—lactation consultants, healthcare providers, milk bank professionals—who work tirelessly to make breastfeeding more accessible.
So, it’s no surprise to us that Lisa Myers, our founder and fearless leader, has been named one of the most dynamic female founders in America. It’s a huge honor—one earned by a select group of women leading the way in business and innovation. But what makes this recognition so meaningful isn’t just the title itself. It’s the proof that being mission-driven, relentlessly passionate, and a little bit stubborn can change lives.
Leading with Purpose, Building with Heart
As the Director of Marketing at Ceres Chill, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside Lisa, witnessing firsthand what it means to build a company that actually makes a difference. Ceres Chill isn’t just about products—it’s about changing the way moms experience breastfeeding and pumping, tearing down unnecessary barriers, and ensuring that parents have the tools they need to make feeding their babies just a little bit easier.
Lisa has never been one to take the easy route. She didn’t start this company to make a quick buck or chase trends. She started it because she saw a broken system and created a breastmilk storage solution for every mom out there who deserved better.
Breastfeeding Innovation Rooted in Empathy
Some companies chase innovation for innovation’s sake. At Ceres Chill, every single thing we create is rooted in listening—to real moms, real professionals, and real challenges. Lisa is at the center of that. She’s not a founder who hides behind an executive desk. She’s in the thick of it, talking to customers (she is known to cold call customers on the regular for real-time feedback!), collaborating with healthcare professionals, and fighting to ensure that breastfeeding and pumping moms are supported, whether they’re in the NICU, at work, on military deployment, or anywhere in between.
And she does it with the kind of tenacity that makes you believe that anything is possible—because with Lisa, it kind of is.
Why Lisa’s Founder Recognition Matters for Moms and Families
Earning a spot on a list of top female founders isn’t just a personal achievement for Lisa—it’s a win for every mom and parent she’s fought for. It’s a reminder that businesses can (and should) be built with real purpose. That success isn’t just about revenue and growth—it’s about impact.
Lisa’s leadership has taught all of us at Ceres Chill that showing up, even when it’s hard, even when the odds are stacked against you, is how real change happens. It’s how you take a crazy idea—like reinventing breastmilk storage for the modern world—and turn it into something that truly improves people’s lives.
So today, we celebrate Lisa. Not just for this incredible recognition, but for being exactly who she is—a founder who never backs down, a leader who lifts others up, and a relentless advocate for moms everywhere.
