Description

It might be your first instinct to categorize menstruation as a feminine/women’s issue–but this episode calls on you to think about it in a deeper and different way. Nadya Okamoto is joined by Chesley Chan, Chief of Staff for August and Max Payne, a former engagement lead for August, for an eye-opening discussion on the need for expanded support and education in the period space that is gender inclusive and affirming as a human biological process. Max then takes the lead to sit down with Schuyler Bailar, an internationally celebrated inspirational speaker, author, and advocate for a discussion that unpacks trans inclusion, body acceptance, mental health awareness, and an exploration of the word “menstruator” as either reductive or inclusive.

We’re obsessed with periods and we’re not ashamed of it. Just like the experience of menstruating, building a company is a beautiful and empowering journey that can be ridiculously challenging. We’re doing both! Meet Nadya, Neddy & Sam, the team behind the inclusive & sustainable August period care brand. In this podcast, we’re going to talk about what we’re learning along the way about entrepreneurship and period health as we build the next gen lifestyle period brand, August.
