I'm so excited to share today's podcast episode with Taran and Bunny Ghatrora, the co-founders of an incredible company called Blume. I discovered Blume through a mutual friend and fell in love with their concept and how they are changing the game when it comes to period products and self-care. Self-care goes beyond face masks and baths (though I do love me a bath...and face mask!). Self-care is also about accessibility to products for something that 50% of the population experiences...periods.

From acne care, to menstrual cramp solutions and organic period products, Blume is here to solve these problems, and give back along the way. I'm so excited to be sharing this incredible company and their founders here on the show today.

On today's episode we also discuss:

• How Blume got started
• Accessibility to period products and Blume's partnership with Days for Girls
• Puberty and the education for young girls on changes in their bodies
• Societal stigma around periods and how to remove it
• What's in our period products + the Pink Tax
• Sex education and self-care - do they go together?
• PCOS and educating young women on it
• ...and so much more!
