In this episode of the Rectified Podcast, host Sandy interviews Nina Smith, one of the founders of Fri Period, a company that produces sustainable, ethically made, chemical-free period underwear. Nina shares the inspiration behind Fri Period, emphasizing the desire to create an environmentally friendly alternative to single-use period products, spurred by the shocking waste statistics discovered during lockdown.
With a background in human rights law, Nina emphasizes the importance of ethical production and details the development process of the product, including challenges and successes in creating a comfortable, sustainable option for menstruation. The discussion also covers the company's grassroots marketing efforts, their commitment to slow, organic growth, and future funding plans. Nina highlights the educational aspect of their marketing, aiming to foster open discussions about menstruation and women's health.
