Description

Starting a company is a huge undertaking, but today’s guest has done it twice (and he’s only 23!). Nick Jain is the Co-Founder and COO of August, the sustainable period product brand behind this podcast, and he did it alongside the show’s very own Nadya Okamoto (Co-Founder and CEO). Nick sits down with Nadya to talk about the ins and outs of being a Gen Z entrepreneur: designing a product and supply chain, fundraising (and how far $2.5 million will really get you), what it means to be a direct-to-consumer business, and the complications of navigating the legal side of starting a business when you don’t have a law degree. And Nick doesn’t leave without sharing what he considers to be the most important skill he’s cultivated as a founder and leader.

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.
