Episode 64 (Part One): Making Periods Safer, Healthier, and Look Kinda Cool with Alex Friedman Of Lola

A couple of months ago, I received emails from two brands that are changing the game in the feminine-hygiene category. Both were interested in being on the podcast and both were selling the same kind of product (natural tampons). But they were doing it in such different ways, that I couldn't decide which one to interview. They were both so innovative (and looked cool, too). So I didn't choose. I interviewed both. Two interviews about tampons?! Yes. In part one, I interview the founder of Lola, Alex Friedman. Alex and I discuss the hardest part about building an early-stage company, the process of testing and launching a new product, why there is still a stigma around feminine-hygiene products, and how she's making big steps to change the industry.
