One of our biggest goals for this podcast is to push the boundaries of conventional industry practices and challenge people (including us) to look outside their bubble. That’s why we were so excited to sit down with Jasmine and Logan from the Go Company this week. The Go Company started with a simple but brilliant idea: providing portable hygiene packs for women in trade. These packs ensure that no female tradesperson has to endure the embarrassment or inconvenience of lacking essential sanitary products during work hours.  The packs, whether it's the elegant Luxury Box or the practical Go Bag, hold essentials like tampons, pads, and hand sanitisers, all packed discreetly into a small, first-aid sized kit. Affordably priced, these packs are built to be easily accessible while promoting a supportive working environment for women.Menstruation doesn’t get discussed in male dominated fields like construction because of discomfort or ignorance, or both. This means women are often left without the facilities they need for their period and can be forced into very uncomfotable situations. Even the two of us were shocked by some of the personal stories Logan and Jazz share in this episode. Thankfully though, the Go Company is working hard to equip women with these basic necessities and to defeat the taboo that surrounds them. Beyond their products, Go Company also facilitates discussions between employers and their employees, to make things easier on all sides. While the Go Company initially targeted the construction industry, the vision extends much further. There’s potential and need for their products in schools, sports events, front-line worker environments, and even the army. It’s an ongoing mission to normalise and expand the availability of sanitary resources, and every workplace could benefit from joining this movement.So if you’re a business owner or someone in a position to influence workplace norms, don’t let this conversation end here. Equip your facilities with Go Packs, discuss openly, and help create spaces where everyone is supported and respected.LINKS:Website: www.thegocompany.com.auInstagram: @girlsonlycompanyConnect with us on Instagram:  @themindfulbuilderpodConnect with Hamish:Instagram:  @sanctumhomesWebsite:   www.yoursanctum.com.au/Connect with Matt: Instagram: @carlandconstructionsWebsite:  www.carlandconstructions.com/
