Commercially sold tampons and feminine hygiene products are horrible for both your body and for the environment, leeching tons of harmful toxins and contributing greatly to plastic waste. This “small” issue affects half of the planet, and all of us indirectly, so it's about time we started to have an open conversation about topics that were stupidly previously taboo. Celia has received several awards for her groundbreaking, carbon-positive start-up DAME, and she really embodies the spirit of the social entrepreneur.  Follow me on Instagram: @therosspalmer

Let's talk about the business of wellness…   My guest today is Alec Mills, the Co-Founder of DAME, a sustainable personal care brand which found fame by launching the world's first reusable tampon applicator. Along with his business partner, Celia Pool, Alec reflects on the journey the duo have been on from idea to scaling up – and the various iterations, mistakes, and challenges overcome along the way.   In this episode, we're talking about how startups in the wellness space are challenging convention AND big business, to do things differently, and to shape a future that is more consumer-friendly, more conscious and for Alec, paves the way to a more sustainable market for period-care for his own daughters too. The conversation is full of practical insights on how to get PR traction with little to no budget, why innovation matters, and how to be truly disruptive.   Thank you to our sponsors:   - The go-to legal firm supporting the wellness industry Bird & Bird - The software booking experts serving gyms, spas and salons worldwide, Mindbody   Find out what trends are driving the growth of the wellness industry in our 2021 Consumer Wellness Trends Report.    To find out how Welltodo can help you grow your business and support your career objectives, head to welltodoglobal.com today.

My guest this week is Celia Pool, founder of multi-award winning sustainable period product company DAME. Celia tells us how DAME measures success against its sustainability efforts, standing out as a carbon-negative business in an industry that emits the same carbon as 3 million cars driving for a year. I ask Celia if she feels the pressure or desire to join feminist conversations as a brand and how DAME navigates the complexities and contradictions within. We talk about DAME’s infamous tampon string advert that adorned London buses last year and why it’s crucial to destigmatise periods for girls. And lastly, we talk about impact businesses as a whole, why it’s paramount to Celia to prove that DAME can be impact-driven and operate as a for-profit business, and how consumer demand really does need to ramp up to ensure deep-rooted and effective action against climate change.

Should it be taboo to talk about a $6 billion industry that is responsible for greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to driving three million cars for a year? Of course not! But unfortunately, the artificial sensitivities around the topic of this month's episode - feminine hygiene products - have hindered widespread discussion of the significant environmental and social issues associated with these products. Join us as we investigate the many sustainability issues they affect, from environmental footprints and social acceptance to female genital health, access and equity, and many more. In addition to speaking with the co-founders of DAME, a startup disrupting the historically single-use tampon market, Jay and Scott are joined by two very special guests to help discuss this topic more organically - their girlfriends Anna and Shannon. Enjoy! ------ Sustainability Defined is the podcast that defines sustainability, one concept (and bad joke) at a time. Hosted by Jay Siegel and Scott Breen. Each episode focuses on a single topic that helps push sustainability forward. We explain each topic with the help of an experienced pro, place it within our organizational tree, and help our listeners define what exactly sustainability is, episode by episode. We have divided our organizational tree into the following seven sectors: Energy Cities Natural Environment Transportation Business Policy Social Each episode is categorized under one of our sectors and visually depicted within our organizational tree. The more episodes we complete, the more the tree will visually define what exactly sustainability means. www.sustainabilitydefined.com

For episode 3 we interview Celia Pool from DAME.Celia and Alec are two friends committed to reducing the environmental impact of the products we use every day, starting with tampons. Back in 2015 they ran a period subscription service, delivering a whole range of branded products to women across the UK. It was here they saw first-hand the impact tampons were having on our bodies and the planet.At DAME they're focusing on personal care - rethinking the small items used by millions of us every day. There philosophy is that the allure of good design and the strength of innovation can make the sustainable, desirable.

We interview Celia Pool and Alec Mills, the co-founders of Dame, a sustainable tampon brand who are completely reshaping how we approach tampons. Billions of plastic tampon applicators get thrown away each year and cannot be recycled, an environmental issue that has largely been ignored - until now. Dame have created the first reusable tampon applicator, which is medical grade with self-sanitising technology, easy to use and 100% keepable, and also sell organic tampons. We interview the founders on how they built an eco brand, the key to a successful kickstarter campaign and how they landed Waitrose as a retail account. We also discuss our recent challenges around launching our BYBI CBD Booster. We’ve faced stumbling blocks with Facebook as well as other advertising platforms and payment gateway. Whilst 100% legal, the legislation around CBD is still unclear. We talk through the issues we’re facing! Finally, hiring is something that takes up a lot of our time as founders! Finding the right team members is a full time role in itself, so we talk through some of the challenges we’re currently facing as well as our open roles at BYBI.

In this episode I’m chatting to Celia Pool one of the co-founders of DAME – a sustainable self-care brand on a mission to turn our bathrooms green.Did you know that globally we throw away 100 billion sanitary products every year?

Having struggled to secure investment the traditional way – turns out investors who are typically male and over sixty, couldn’t see the business potential for a sustainable period product that women would use once a month (shocking eh..!) – Celia, along with her Co-Founder Alec, launched a Kickstarter campaign to launch 'D' that went on to exceed its target by 500%, attracted backers from over 50 countries gaining worldwide media attention as a consequence, trending globally on Twitter in the aftermath too. On a sunny afternoon in London late April, I sat down with Celia to discuss the journey she’s been on behind the glowing headlines so far. From the challenges they’ve faced trying to get women to change long-rooted habits when it comes to their monthly cycle; her advice for anyone looking to go into business with a Co-Founder; to how she balances running a business with motherhood given that she was heavily pregnant with her third child at the time of this recording; I sat in awe from start to finish of this recording!  With ambitious plans for DAME and its mission to make more bathroom products eco-friendly going forward too, we also discuss how she handles the pressures of playing big and why she genuinely believes that anyone could launch a business if she can…   She can.
