What if we could do period care differently?
Enter Hello Period, the world's first sustainable period company that offers reusable products - cups, discs, pads and period underpants. Hello Period was co-founded by today's guest, Robyn McLean.
This is a story about innovation, about looking after our planet and about how an idea became a successful business.
