Episode Synopsis

Today we're going to talk about Periods!
If you've never stopped to think about why they are still considered a taboo topic of conversation, then this episode is just for you.
We've got Nick Jain on the show. Nick is one half of the founding team of August, a modern period care company built for Gen Z, that's ready to redefine how the world talks about periods, and truly have an impact on a new generation of consumers.
We dig into a bunch of important topics like:

What Period Poverty and the Tampon Tax are, and how they negatively affect menstruators
What August wants brands to do about it
What the word Impact means for a new brand like August
As well as diving into the research process August used to create a truly consumer-built brand, and why this process is something every business should be doing.

So listen up and enjoy the show!
