#84 Say hello to reusable period products with Robyn McLean of Hello Period

  • Resumen

  • Hello Period makes sustainable period products like menstrual cups, discs, and underwear. The goal is to reduce waste by offering alternatives to single-use period products like pads and tampons.

    Cofounder and former journalist Robyn McLean describes how menstrual cups changed her life and lead to launching her company in 2017 with business partner and best friend since the age of 11, Mary Bond. As a nurse, it was Mary who designed their first menstrual cup.

    Listen in to hear Robyn reveal...

    • Why she expanded from just menstrual cups into the full range of reusable period products
    • What differing cervix sizes have to do with it
    • One menstrual cup replaces about 2000 single-use period products
    • Why her vision is that one day soon, the only tampons will be in museums to show how people managed their periods in the olden days
    • The ins and outs of toxic shock syndrome
    • Why there's been no real innovation in traditional period products for decades
    • How her aim is to divert one billion single-use products by 2030
    • How they became a B Corp in 2021 and found the process helpful for formalizing their social and environmental commitments.
    • How balancing profitability and purpose was a learning curve - you can't help others without being a viable business yourself first.

    Check it out! Learn something, be entertained, and get inspired.
