Antonia helped build one of the most iconic period brands in the world. In this episode, she takes us inside the real, messy, deeply human journey of launching Thinx: from her pink pajama shame moment at 13 to raising millions, writing her own patent, and co-founding a brand that changed the way we talk about periods. But that's only the first half of the story. She opens up about what it actually felt like to raise money, negotiate with strategic partners, and sit in rooms where you slowly lose control of the brand you built. What happens when you and your co-founders don't want the same future? What do you do when the investors are offering the deal of a lifetime? 01:10 – Meet Antonia: From Classical Musician to Brand Builder 04:30 – The Origin of Thinx: A Three-Legged Race & a Bikini Bottom 08:00 – From India to Innovation: Solving Global Period Poverty 11:15 – The Girl Effect: Empowering Girls by Keeping Them in School 14:20 – Designing Smart Underwear: Antimicrobial, Leak-Proof & Chic 17:40 – First Funding: From Music Studio to Kickstarter 21:30 – “Failure to Launch” & Taking the Leap 24:10 – Family & Friends Round + The $25K Investor Who Made $1M 27:50 – When Deals Don't Close: Due Diligence with UK Partner 31:40 – Sri Lanka Email Changes Everything: MAS Becomes Strategic Partner 36:00 – Why the Subway Ads Made People Stop & Stare 38:45 – Educating the Public on “Underwear for Periods” 41:00 – Kimberly-Clark Enters the Picture 43:20 – Losing Control of Product Design After Investment 45:00 – Birth of Her Next Venture: The Shoe Brand Idea 48:15 – $2.1M Kickstarter for Her Shoe Brand in 90 Days 51:00 – Was She Ready to Leave Thinx? 53:10 – The Co-Founder Rift: Different Timelines, Different Visions 56:40 – Lessons in Equity, Contracts & Business Breakups 59:15 – Don't Assume Love = Legal Protection 01:01:30 – Why She Has No Regrets (But Learned the Hard Way)
Let's face it. Our waste habits are, well, pretty wasteful. Every single day, more than 27,000 trees are cut down just to make toilet paper. Meanwhile, the average disposable diaper takes over 500 years to decompose in a landfill, all while leaching harmful plastics and chemicals into the environment. And that's not even counting other single-use sanitary products like tampons, pads, and wipes. Put simply, our throwaway culture is a serious environmental problem.Enter today's guest: Miki Agrawal. A bold entrepreneur and creative disruptor, Miki has built a career out of challenging the status quo. She's the founder of groundbreaking companies like Thinx (revolutionary period underwear), TUSHY (modern bidets), and her latest venture, Hiro Diapers, a game-changing product designed to break down in landfills using fungi-powered decomposition technology. Hiro represents a major step forward in the battle against plastic waste, starting with a natural end-of-life solution for one of the most essential (and wasteful) products in parenting.In this conversation, we explore the hidden environmental costs of traditional diapers, the importance of slowing down to meet the moment, and why nature (hello, mushrooms!) holds the key to designing smarter, bolder everyday essentials.Show NotesHiro DiapersTUSHY BidetsAbout Miki AgrawalFour SigmaticPacha's Pajamas: A Story Written By NatureDo Cool Shit: Quit Your Day Job, Start Your Own Business, and Live Happily Ever After by Miki AgrawalDisrupt-Her: A Manifesto for the Modern Woman by Miki AgrawalBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

Period underwear came out in 2013 but has increased in popularity, largely as they claim to be better for the environment and easy to use. However, in January 2023 Thinx, a leading US manufacturer of period underwear who branded themself as a sustainable alternative to single-use menstrual products has just settled a lawsuit regarding the presence of PFAs, also known as “forever chemicals.” Now people are wondering if period underwear is really as good as companies have made them out to be. What is period underwear? What are forever chemicals? What alternatives are there to period underwear? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Founded in 2014, Thinx, Inc. makes absorbent underwear that can be worn during menstruation. But the feminine care market had seen virtually no innovation in half a century because of the taboo against discussing the topic of menstruation. As a result, the startup was competing against large incumbents like Procter & Gamble and Johnson & Johnson. Harvard Business School Associate Professor Rembrand Koning examines these strategic marketing challenges and discusses the importance of removing taboos and biases in order to bring innovation to the feminine care market in his case, “Thinx, Inc.—Breaking Barriers in Feminine Care.” Key episode topics include: disruptive innovation, startups, marketing, gender, health and wellness HBR On Strategy curates the best case studies and conversations with the world's top business and management experts, to help you unlock new ways of doing business.

In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, I sit down with the legendary Miki Agrawal—serial entrepreneur, disruptor, and the creator of multiple 9-figure businesses—to unpack the game-changing concept of Conscious Capitalism. Miki has built brands that challenge norms (from period underwear to bidets to sustainable diapers) and has proven that business can be wildly profitable and make a real impact. She shares how to scale with integrity, lead with soft power, and create brands that people are obsessed with.
In this intimate conversation with Raj, serial entrepreneur Miki Agrawal shares profound insights from her experiences in a darkness retreat and her journey of personal transformation. Miki is an author of "Disrupt-Her," and a trailblazing innovator known for founding TUSHY, THINX, and Wild. Named "Fast Company's Most Creative People in Business" and "Young Global Leader" by the World Economic Forum, Miki shares her evolution from a hard-charging entrepreneur to an advocate of "soft power" leadership. Her latest venture, Hiro Technologies, exemplifies this approach by partnering with nature to solve the global plastic crisis through breakthrough fungi technology. Beyond her business accomplishments, she's a devoted mother, musician, and thought leader in the space of authentic leadership and emotional intelligence.Key Topics and Takeaways:How five nights in complete darkness revealed the mechanics of our emotional patterns and thought loopsWhy "soft power" might be the leadership paradigm our world desperately needs right nowThe remarkable experience of watching yourself cry and finding joy in feeling everythingThe difference between leadership and mastery (and why understanding this changes everything)How prayer and gratitude can transform our relationship with uncertaintyWhy moving at the "perfect pace" means something different than what most people thinkThe profound shift from being a leader on a pedestal to being a guide on the pathHow vulnerability and power aren't opposites - they're partners in authentic leadershipThe way our souls might have chosen this human experience specifically to feel it allWhy feeling insecure might be one of the most secure things we can doThis conversation reminds us that true aliveness isn't found in avoiding the dark or chasing only the light - it's found in embracing every shade of the human experience. As Miki beautifully puts it, "I want to skid to death's door sideways, not in a well-preserved body, thoroughly used up, loudly proclaiming, wow, what a life!" The invitation is clear: what if instead of managing our emotions, we let them be our teachers? What if instead of fearing our vulnerability, we let it be our strength? This episode challenges us to embrace the full spectrum of being human, knowing that in this embrace, we find our most authentic power.Connect with Miki:Instagram: @mikiagrawalWebsite: https://mikiagrawal.com/Support Hiro Technology's Crowdfund Campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hirotechnologies/hiro-experience-plastic-eating-fungi-at-homeConnect with Raj:Instagram: @raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Mein heutiger Gast war erst im vergangenen Dezember in meinem Podcast. Trotzdem konnte ich es kaum erwarten, ihn erneut zum Gespräch zu bitten. Kevin Albrecht ist nämlich – und das konnten wir bisher ja nur vermuten! – ziemlich kühn und unerschrocken. Naja, und ein erfolgreicher Comedy-Autor ist er auch. Und was macht so einer mit dieser Kombination – Comedy, deutsch, unerschrocken? Genau! Er zieht vorübergehend nach New York, wirft ChatGPT an (für perfektes Englisch) und schreibt den Chef-Autor der Late-Night-Show von Seth Meyers an, um zu fragen, ob er mal hospitieren könne. Ein paar Wochen später sitzt Kevin tatsächlich in der Produktion der Show und der Wahnsinn des US-Fernsehens entlädt sich über den Deutschen, der nicht ganz so gut Englisch spricht, wie seine Mail es vermuten ließ. Wie es dazu kam, was passierte und wozu das gut war – das erzählt der „Comedy-Schreiber“, Podcaster, Autor und Moderator in dieser sehr unterhaltsamen Episode. Wer wissen will, wie Kevin Albrecht zu Kevin Albrecht wurde, dem sei Folge #212 wärmstens ans Herz gelegt. Und nicht vergessen: Dumm herumstehen sieht immer blöd aus!

Well, es mag vielleicht ein bisschen cringe klingen, aber ich bin absoluter Fanboy dieser einmaligen Frau: Mieke Haase. Die Kreativchefin und Mitinhaberin der Hamburger Agentur “loved” (im Hauptberuf) ist mit ganzer Leidenschaft AI-Künstlerin und schafft mit der Hilfe von künstlicher Intelligenz atemberaubend aufregende Bilder. Sie selbst aber stellt klar: Das ist keine Kunst, das sind nur schöne Bilder. Aber stimmt das? - Ist “Kunst ist zu fordernd für das, was ich mache”? Oder andersherum: Ab wann sind Werke (ob Musik oder bildender Kunst), die mit Hilfe von AI gestaltet werden, richtige Kunst? Diese Episode beschäftigt sich allerdings nicht ausschließlich mit AI-Kunst. Wir blicken auch hinter die Kulissen einer Frau, die - für Hamburg nicht ganz untypisch - in den Neunzigern unbedingt in die Werbebranche wollte, dafür rasant schnell Grafik-Design studierte, um danach karriereleiterhoch bei den typischen namhaften Agenturen zu landen. Und dazwischen immer wieder: Der nicht einfache Spagat zwischen den sehr unterschiedlichen Welten “verdammt kreativ und talentiert arbeiten” und “Künstlerin sein”. Wie das eben so ist, wenn das Ziel mal wieder im Weg liegt… Mieke Haase Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/miekehaaseai/ https://www.instagram.com/namae_koi/ Diese Folge wird präsentiert von: **thinx** make.thinks.happen [www.thinX.company](http://www.thinX.company) Mehr über den Podcast: FB: https://www.facebook.com/daszielistimweg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreas.loff

Mein heutiger Gast ist wieder einmal der Musiker, Songwriter, Autor und Imbisswirt Ingo (“Dittsche” mit Olli Dittrich) Jon Flemming Olsen. Wir saßen bereits im vergangenen November zusammen (#211) und diskutierten die Auswirkungen der künstlichen Intelligenz (KI) auf kreative Berufe, wie zum Beispiel das Songschreiben. Seitdem ist in der Szene der “Large Language Models” zwischen ChatGTP-4, Grok und Gemini unglaublich viel passiert, die Technologie marschiert in Siebenmeilenstiefeln voran - und lässt uns Menschen an vielen Stellen schon heute ganz schön alt, analog und doof dastehen. Aber gilt das auch für die Musik? Flemming produziert gerade ein neues Album - natürlich ganz ohne technischen Firlefanz, sondern 100% hand- beziehungsweise menschgemacht. Ein guter Anlass, einen Zwischenstopp in Eppendorf einzulegen und bei dem Ausnahmekünstler mal reinzuhören und zu prüfen, wie nahe wir daran sind, dass die KI-Künstler, Musiker, Schaffende ganz oder teilweise ersetzt. Das Crowdfunding zum Album findet Ihr hier: https://www.startnext.com/jfo2024 Zur Verstärkung in dieser Folge habe ich von der KI zudem drei Songs komponieren und produzieren lassen. Wir mussten herzhaft lachen. Eines kann ich verraten: Die Songs werden es nicht auf das Album schaffen. Allerdings stellt sich die Frage am Ende dann doch, ob die KI am Ende vielleicht doch am längeren Hebel sitzt. Wer mehr hören will von Jon Flemming Olsen, dem empfehle ich die Episoden #211 (“Was macht KI mit Dir und der Musik”), #154 (“Wenn Kreativität zerbröselt”), #41 (“Flötenspiel bei Mondlandung”).

Mit seinem bewegenden Projekt “Sage Nein!” hat mein heutiger Gast vor fünf Jahren ein audiovisuelles Mahnmal geschaffen, das unter die Haut ging, aufrüttelte - und millionenfach geteilt wurde. Die Jahre seitdem fühlen sich im Rückblick wie eine Ewigkeit an. Viel ist passiert, viel hat sich verändert. Und wahrscheinlich haben sich Dinge nicht zum Besseren verändert, denn leider könnte der Song (komponiert von Konstantin Wecker, neu gesungen von Ezé Wendtoin) angesichts einer ätzenden AfD mit ihrem braunen Tross nicht aktueller, nicht mahnender, sein. Was macht also einer wie der Filmemacher Christian Suhr in Zeiten wie diesen? Genau - Er macht weiter. In der heutigen Episode sprechen wir über ein neues Projekt, an dem wir derzeit zusammen sehr intensiv arbeiten. Aber wie geht das eigentlich - “für eine Idee intensiv zusammenarbeiten”? Christian und ich kennen uns schon sehr lange, und es brauchte anfangs eine ganze Weile, bis wir auf der gleichen Frequenz kommunizieren konnten. Seitdem aber haben wir großartige Wege gefunden, wie wir ausgesprochen kreativ und effektiv miteinander arbeiten können, ohne uns zu verbiegen.

Brian chats with serial entrepreneur, social innovator, and author Miki Agrawal. As the founder of disruptive ventures Tushy, Thinx, and Wild, Miki is known for challenging the status quo and driving cultural change. She is also the author of best-selling books Do Cool Sh*t and Disrupt-Her. On the episode, Miki dives deep into her experience building multiple 100-million-dollar businesses. She also shares the questions she asks before starting a new business and opens up about how some of her hardest times have led to growth. Episode Highlights Mission-driven businesses do well and good. Miki defines a mission-driven business as a company that does good and well at the same time. As a member of a board on conscious capitalism, she's witnessed how companies that create socially conscious business models perform better financially, too. “It's a company that looks at the stakeholders versus just the shareholders,” Miki said. “Having not just a revenue-focused target but also an impact target is important.” Three questions to ask before starting a business. Before she starts a new business, Miki asks herself three questions: What sucks in my world? Does it suck for a lot of people? Can I be passionate about it for a really long time? “There's a saying that it takes 10 years to be an overnight success,” Miki said. “When I think about starting Tushy or Thinx or Wild, they are all things I could be really passionate about for a really long time.” 90% of success is action. Miki likes the saying that 90% of working out is putting on your running shoes and walking out the door. She attributes a similar action-first mindset to success in business, too. If you're inspired and take action, you may end up somewhere miraculous. “If you have an idea in your head, take the first step,” she said. “Talk is cheap. Action speaks louder than words.” Question everything. Miki attributes her success to her desire to creatively solve problems to the best of her ability. She also credits her culturally diverse upbringing in French Canada, where she grew up with a Japanese mother and Indian father in a Hindu-Buddhist household. “We got a chance to not conform,” she said. “When you don't conform, you get to really question everything. And when you get to question everything, you invent new possibilities.” Resources + Links Miki Agrawal: Website, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest Books: Disrupt-Her: A Manifesto for the Modern Woman, Do Cool Sh*t Tushy: Website, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Threads, YouTube Thinx: Website, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter Wild: Website, Instagram, Facebook Brian Thompson Financial: Website, Newsletter, Podcast Follow Brian Online: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Forbes About Brian and the Mission Driven Business Podcast Brian Thompson, JD/CFP, is a tax attorney and certified financial planner who specializes in providing comprehensive financial planning to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs who run mission-driven businesses.

Join me for an enlightening chat with Calen Otto from the Unruly podcast where we confront the challenges of being creators, sharing our lives, beliefs, and imperfections while trying to make a living. Listen as we explore the idea of living more mindfully and eco-consciously and the struggles of being a recovering perfectionist in a world that isn't set up for that. The conversation takes an interesting turn as we discuss our journey of discovering eco-friendly period products and how we both became advocates for sustainable menstruation. We shed light on the lawsuit against Thinx and how it has influenced our approach to talking about period products. We also share our thoughts on how we can consciously approach life and be comfortable with it. Navigating brand partnerships and sponsorships as content creators can be complex, but it's a topic we tackle head-on. Calen and I discuss the ethical considerations involved and how certain brands' questionable practices have posed dilemmas for us and other creators. We also explore the importance of meeting people where they are for real and lasting change, and the need to stay true to our beliefs while navigating the intricacies of online content creation and brand partnerships. Jump in as we share our experiences and insights in this engaging and thought-provoking episode.Guest Bio: Calen Ann Otto is a queer, anti-speciesist travel blogger who explores the big wide world on a very small budget.

There they share photos, videos, articles, and podcast episodes from their unique travels in hopes to inspire others to get out and grow. Calen has been to 5 continents, 35 states, 20 National Parks, and more than 20 countries as a vegan and is passionate about doing the least amount of harm wherever they go.

This is terribly disconcerting — especially if you have young women in your life. It is worth the read. It’s a delicate subject, but it needs to be discussed. NOW. Earlier this month, the feminine hygiene company Thinx settled a class-action lawsuit for $5 million over using PFAS in its products. The company used PFAS,…
This episode of Sustainably LB is a solo episode and I will be discussing my latest article for Remake – Are Companies Greenwashing Us Into Buying Toxic Products?Over the past few years there has been an increase in consumers asking: “What is in the products I am purchasing and using? What do these vague labels actually mean? And are these marketing claims actually legitimate?” The rise in this consumer concern? The access to improved chemical testing and the increase in the finding of PFAS or ‘forever chemicals' in many of our everyday-use products such as baby products, food containers, furniture and even our undergarments, specifically period products. No matter which products are used (tampons, pads, cups or underwear) all period products are used near or in highly absorptive and sensitive parts of our bodies. Recently a report surfaced that accused the underwear brand Thinx of having PFAS in the lining of its sustainable and organic period products. Read, right next to that delicate area. However, while the idea of forever chemicals and plastics making their way into our intimates is disturbing, this lawsuit against Thinx isn't about the potential harm of the products, but rather, it's focused on Thinx's misleading advertising.Show Notes:Greenwashing is misleading advertising that claims products are sustainable and safe when they are unfoundedBe leary of certifications and paid independent testing claimsEPA has identified over 12,000 types of PFAS It's mostly men who profit off of lax chemical safety standards, and it's women who sufferThere is a long history of chemicals being used in menstruation productsThere is little Federal regulation around products containing PFAS and toxic chemicals, especially when it comes to menstrual productsHandles:Instagram: Sustainably_LBLinks:Remake Article – Are Companies Greenwashing Us Into Buying Toxic Products?New York State Menstrual Product Labeling LawCalifornia Law Regulating PFAS in Consumer ProductsEPA – PFAS ExplainedThinx LawsuitTo Dye For: How Toxic Fashion Is Making Us Sick – and How We Can Fight BackMusic:Ian AeilloCreative:Lauren BatesLogo:Meadow Hearn

As thoughtful consumers, we try to make the best decisions for ourselves and our families. And the bottom line is that we shouldn't have to twice about the possibility that the everyday products we use, from the cookware in our homes to our cosmetics, could pose any level of danger to our health and wellbeing. We should be able to have confidence in the brands that make these products, as well as in the role of the powers that be — specifically the FDA — in ensuring their safety. However, there are unfortunate realities behind many of these everyday goods; PFAS, better known as "forever chemicals,” being one of them. In today's episode of On Health, I address the threat of PFAS to our wellbeing as women, and to our children as I talk about the recent controversy that was brought to light from behind the shadows of some very misleading marketing by Thinx, a popular period underwear company. I dive into the long-term impact these chemicals can have on our health, the toxicity of labels like "organic" and "natural" in products that clearly contain PFAS, what products to be aware of, how to limit your exposure, and the importance of advocating for real, systemic change to keep ourselves, our families, and future generations as safe and healthy as possible. Join me as I discuss: The definition and history of PFAS and why they are classified as "forever chemicals" Where menstrual products fall under the FDA's regulatory category and what this ultimately means for their safety How much PFAS exposure we are getting from menstrual products and the health risks associated with this Tips and best practices to reduce exposure to PFAS when it comes to both menstrual products and everyday living Why the issue of these chemicals present in our products requires systemic change and what needs to be done moving forward Thank you so much for taking the time to tune in to your body, yourself, and this podcast!

Today is Friday, January 27, and we're looking at Thinx vs. Lilova.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Period underwear brand Thinx recently settled a class-action suit alleging their underwear contained PFAS, a family of thousands of chemicals found in everything from fabrics to take-out containers. PFAS add functionality, but they're not particularly healthy (for humans or the earth). The suit against Thinx aimed at the claim that their products are sustainable, organic and non-toxic. We answered tons of questions about what to do with period underwear.Show Notes:The Vajenda from Dr. Jen GunterThe Awkward RollercoasterOur PUBERTY PORTAL Hosted on Acast.

Companies that make disposable and reusable period products like tampons, cups, pads and underwear aren't required to list the chemicals they contain. This came into focus after popular period underwear brand Thinx settled a class action lawsuit that alleged the company's marketing misrepresented the safety of the products. Reset learns from health experts Anna Pollack and Jhumka Gupta of George Mason University about the research that goes into ensuring these products are safe and accessible.

Thinx, one of the most recognizable brands for period underwear, agreed to pay out $5 million to settle a class action lawsuit alleging that its signature product contains PFAS — despite having advertised the underwear as safe.A recent New York Times investigation revealed that the National Restaurant Association coerced millions of restaurant workers nationwide into unknowingly funding the lobbying efforts that keep their wages low. Saru Jayaraman, the President of One Fair Wage, joins us to discuss the effort to end the sub-minimum wage and improve working conditions in the service sector.And in headlines: Ukraine's interior minister was among at least 14 people killed in a helicopter crash outside Kyiv, Microsoft announced that it will lay off 10,000 employees, and former President Donald Trump's campaign asked Meta to reinstate his Facebook account.Show Notes:Dickens v.

Today on the show we have Miki Agrawal, the serial founder behind some of the coolest companies you'll definitely know; the first being WILD a gluten-free pizza restaurant concept she launched 18 years ago, Thinx, the period underwear company that totally disrupted how we think about our period care and Tushy, the modern day bidet. This episode was so damn cool, and I know you're going to get so much out of this. Miki is the queen of disruptive marketing, we talk through how she takes a product and applies her framework to create intrigue and mystery which then creates buzz and more eyeballs. We also talk about what she did to raise millions of dollars and her advice for founders. And if you hang around to the end, we were lucky enough to meet her beautiful dad! Go check out the YouTube video on our channel. Miki is an absolute marketing genius, and her magic lies in pulling that intrigue and taboo element out of the products she is selling. Using that intrigue in a way that supports the clickbait or the interest of the conversation. You can really take anything and make it intriguing based on what you attach it to. It all comes back to creativity. Everyone is creative, we just don't necessarily spend the time taking the noise out of our brains to have time to think. People are so busy reacting to the world around them that they don't give themselves the space to be creative. Creativity requires spaciousness, time, and presence. Tuning into your creativity goes hand-in-hand with the changes in the narrative around things not being presented so perfect and crisp anymore. We're leaning more into sincerity and authenticity in 2022. This links back to the big rise in UGC over traditional commercials, something important to keep in mind for marketing moving into the future.

Today on the show we have Miki Agrawal, the serial founder behind some of the coolest companies you'll definitely know; the first being WILD a gluten-free pizza restaurant concept she launched 18 years ago, Thinx, the period underwear company that totally disrupted how we think about our period care and Tushy, the modern day bidet. This episode was so damn cool, and I know you're going to get so much out of this. Miki is the queen of disruptive marketing, we talk through how she takes a product and applies her framework to create intrigue and mystery which then creates buzz and more eyeballs. We also talk about what she did to raise millions of dollars and her advice for founders. And if you hang around to the end, we were lucky enough to meet her beautiful dad! Go check out the YouTube video on our channel. Miki is an absolute marketing genius, and her magic lies in pulling that intrigue and taboo element out of the products she is selling. Using that intrigue in a way that supports the clickbait or the interest of the conversation. You can really take anything and make it intriguing based on what you attach it to. It all comes back to creativity. Everyone is creative, we just don't necessarily spend the time taking the noise out of our brains to have time to think. People are so busy reacting to the world around them that they don't give themselves the space to be creative. Creativity requires spaciousness, time, and presence. Tuning into your creativity goes hand-in-hand with the changes in the narrative around things not being presented so perfect and crisp anymore. We're leaning more into sincerity and authenticity in 2022. This links back to the big rise in UGC over traditional commercials, something important to keep in mind for marketing moving into the future. Authentic recommendations and user-generated content perform so much better, commercials have started to feel phony. Do things DIY, and even if it's not perfect, that's the whole point. We are built for imperfection, that's the beauty of being human. I'm so grateful that you're tuning in today and I hope you love this episode as much as I did recording it.

Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a board-certified OB-GYN who made a leap from her well-established medical practice to a solo, self-funded entrepreneur at 49.
