Periods - a part of life, not a reason to miss out on life
Periods are an inevitable part of life for half the world's population.
However, they can get in the way of work, school, family, and life in general in a big way.
We believe periods should never hold anyone back from the opportunities they deserve.
No one should miss out on their education, their career, or their dreams - just because of their period. That’s exactly why we exist. We want women and girls everywhere to live confidently, comfortably, and shame free - no matter the 'time of the month'.
2 BILLION women and girls menstruate every month.
Of those 2 billion, nearly 1.25 BILLION are living in period poverty.
That means that there are potentially 1.25 billion women and girls every month that are skipping school or work due to a lack of toilet facilities, or clean water, or privacy, or the ability to afford appropriate period care products. Which means each month, these women and girls are falling behind in school, losing out on income, and losing opportunities that eventually build up and impact their lives in a HUGE way. To us, that is unacceptable. It’s a huge issue that holds people back in ways that so many of us never even think about.
Equality means equal opportunity, and we’re all about ensuring that women and girls have the same opportunities in life as anyone else.
For those experiencing period poverty, reusable products eliminate the need for recurring, expensive, single-use products. They eliminate the need for clean water and private facilities whilst on-the-go (think 12hrs of wear, plus the ability to boil reusable period products for sterilisation in the privacy of their own homes), and they eliminate the shame from leakages - caused from using inappropriate, makeshift products (in lieu of not being able to afford pads or tampons).
Making the switch to reusable period care can have huge impacts (for ourselves, for others, and for the planet).
We believe periods should never be the reason someone misses out on life. That’s why we’ve launched Your Body, Your Way in 2025 - with 50% of our profits dedicated to ending period poverty in remote communities across Australia.
We’re just getting started, but we’re confident that together, we can make a real difference. Let’s make periods something that empowers us, not something that holds us back.
