The Food and Drug Administration doesn’t require feminine care products, such as tampons, to have their ingredients disclosed, even though they spend a combined six years inside the bodies of women around the world. Overall, the feminine care industry is selling sexual wellness products that aren’t catered towards women’s health; they often contain harmful ingredients and perpetuate a destructive narrative around female sexuality. 

Enter our savior in sustainable, affordable, safe sexual health products: Meika Hollender. Meika revolutionized the personal care industry and redefined the stigmatized nature of sexual wellness for women through her company, Sustain.

In our Episode with Meika we discuss: 

• Meika's founding of Sustain Natural and the trials and tribulations of running a socially conscious business.
• Meika's new role at Grove Collaborative and the acquisition of Sustain by Grove 
• The role of business in social and environmental issues
