  In

  the

  word
• 0:13
  vagina
• 0:13
  on
• 0:13
  it,

• 0:15
  so
• 0:15
  proud
• 0:16
  and

  excited.

  Menopause
• 0:39
  is

  not

  a

  Once

  you're

  Yeah.

  So

  question.

  You

  your

  Absolutely.

  Is

  I
• 2:09
  know
• 2:09
  you
• 2:10
  have
• 2:10
  such
• 2:10
  a
• 2:10
  busy
• 2:10
  schedule.
• 2:11
  In
• 2:11
  fact,
• 2:11
  you
• 2:12
  just
• 2:12
  flew
• 2:12
  in
• 2:12
  last
• 2:13
  night
• 2:13
  from
• 2:13
  Sacramento.
• 2:14
  I
• 2:14
  did?
• 2:15
  Yeah.
• 2:15
  No
• 2:15
  big
• 2:15
  deal.
• 2:15
  Just
• 2:16
  trying
• 2:16
  to
• 2:16
  change
• 2:16
  some
• 2:16
  laws,
• 2:17
  you
• 2:17
  know.
• 2:17
  No
• 2:18
  biggie.
• 2:19
  How
• 2:19
  was
• 2:19
  your
• 2:20
  Sacramento
• 2:20
  trip?
• 2:21
  What
• 2:21
  were
• 2:21
  you.
• 2:22
  Oh,
• 2:22
  my
• 2:22
  goodness.
• 2:23
  Okay.
• 2:23
  Never
• 2:24
  in
• 2:24
  a
• 2:24
  million
• 2:24
  years
• 2:25
  would
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  have
• 2:25
  thought
• 2:25
  that
• 2:26
  advocacy
• 2:26
  would
• 2:27
  be
• 2:27
  a
• 2:27
  part
• 2:27
  of
• 2:29
  what
• 2:29
  I
• 2:30
  do,
• 2:30
  but
• 2:30
  it
• 2:30
  really
• 2:31
  has
• 2:31
  turned
• 2:32
  into
• 2:32
  that,
• 2:33
  and
• 2:33
  I'm
• 2:34
  so
• 2:34
  grateful
• 2:35
  to
• 2:35
  have
• 2:35
  the
• 2:35
  opportunity.
• 2:37
  It's
• 2:37
  kind
• 2:38
  of
• 2:38
  crazy
• 2:38
  how
• 2:38
  this
• 2:38
  has
• 2:39
  come
• 2:39
  about,
• 2:39
  but
• 2:41
  California
• 2:41
  was
• 2:42
  attempting
• 2:42
  to
• 2:43
  enhance
• 2:43
  their
• 2:43
  cosmetic
• 2:45
  safety
• 2:45
  laws,
• 2:46
  and
• 2:47
  in
• 2:47
  doing
• 2:47
  so,
• 2:48
  they
• 2:48
  included
• 2:48
  an
• 2:49
  ingredient
• 2:49
  that
• 2:49
  is
• 2:49
  essential
• 2:50
  for
• 2:50
  women's
• 2:50
  health.
• 2:51
  Not
• 2:51
  knowing
• 2:53
  that
• 2:53
  including
• 2:55
  this
• 2:55
  boric
• 2:56
  acid
• 2:56
  on
• 2:57
  this
• 2:57
  list
• 2:57
  would
• 2:57
  affect
• 2:58
  women's
• 2:58
  health.
• 3:00
  Had
• 3:00
  they
• 3:00
  known
• 3:01
  that,
• 3:01
  they
• 3:01
  wouldn't
• 3:02
  have
• 3:02
  done
• 3:02
  it.
• 3:02
  So
• 3:03
  I
• 3:04
  stepped
• 3:04
  in
• 3:05
  as
• 3:05
  the
• 3:06
  founder
• 3:06
  of
• 3:07
  the
• 3:07
  original
• 3:07
  boric
• 3:08
  acid
• 3:08
  suppository
• 3:09
  brand.
• 3:11
  I
• 3:11
  couldn't
• 3:11
  sit
• 3:12
  back
• 3:12
  and
• 3:12
  allow
• 3:12
  that
• 3:13
  to
• 3:13
  happen
• 3:13
  because
• 3:13
  I
• 3:14
  knew
• 3:14
  that
• 3:14
  if
• 3:15
  California
• 3:16
  banned
• 3:17
  boric
• 3:17
  acid
• 3:18
  and
• 3:19
  cosmetic
• 3:19
  products,
• 3:20
  then
• 3:20
  it
• 3:21
  would
• 3:21
  be
• 3:21
  banned
• 3:21
  nationwide
• 3:22
  because
• 3:22
  all
• 3:22
  the
• 3:22
  retailers
• 3:23
  nationwide
• 3:23
  have
• 3:23
  told
• 3:24
  me
• 3:24
  so.
• 3:25
  Tens
• 3:26
  of
• 3:26
  millions
• 3:26
  of
• 3:26
  women
• 3:27
  depend
• 3:27
  on
• 3:27
  this
• 3:28
  ingredient
• 3:29
  so
• 3:29
  much
• 3:30
  so
• 3:30
  that
• 3:30
  it's
• 3:30
  become
• 3:30
  standard
• 3:31
  of
• 3:31
  care.
• 3:31
  It's
• 3:32
  on
• 3:32
  the
• 3:32
  CDC
• 3:33
  guidelines
• 3:33
  for
• 3:34
  sexual
• 3:34
  health,
• 3:35
  the
• 3:35
  American
• 3:35
  College
• 3:36
  of
• 3:36
  Obstetrics
• 3:37
  and
• 3:37
  Gynecology.
• 3:38
  It's
• 3:38
  on
• 3:38
  their
• 3:38
  protocols,
• 3:39
  as
• 3:39
  well
• 3:39
  as
• 3:40
  Harvard
• 3:40
  and
• 3:40
  Kaiser
• 3:41
  and
• 3:42
  pretty
• 3:42
  much
• 3:43
  every
• 3:44
  major
• 3:44
  medical
• 3:44
  institutions.
• 3:45
  So.
• 3:46
  And
• 3:46
  thankfully,
• 3:46
  we
• 3:47
  have
• 3:47
  their
• 3:47
  backing
• 3:47
  on
• 3:48
  this
• 3:48
  bill,
• 3:48
  too.
• 3:48
  So
• 3:49
  I
• 3:49
  have
• 3:50
  been
• 3:50
  working
• 3:51
  feverishly
• 3:52
  for
• 3:52
  over
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  year
• 3:53
  to
• 3:53
  get
• 3:53
  that
• 3:55
  amended,
• 3:55
  get
• 3:56
  the
• 3:56
  law
• 3:56
  amended,
• 3:57
  and
• 3:57
  have
• 3:58
  so
• 3:59
  blessed
• 3:59
  and
• 3:59
  grateful
• 4:00
  to
• 4:00
  be
• 4:00
  working
• 4:01
  with
• 4:03
  California
• 4:03
  Senator
• 4:04
  Dr.
• 4:04
  Akilah
• 4:05
  Weber
• 4:05
  Pearson,
• 4:06
  who's
• 4:06
  an
• 4:06
  OB
• 4:07
  GYN.
• 4:07
  Okay,
• 4:08
  what
• 4:08
  are
• 4:08
  the
• 4:08
  odds
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  that
• 4:09
  happening?
• 4:11
  And
• 4:12
  totally
• 4:13
  divinely
• 4:13
  choreographed.
• 4:15
  And
• 4:15
  so
• 4:15
  she
• 4:15
  has
• 4:16
  been
• 4:16
  helping
• 4:16
  me
• 4:17
  get
• 4:17
  this
• 4:17
  bill
• 4:17
  across
• 4:18
  the
• 4:18
  finish
• 4:18
  line
• 4:18
  and
• 4:19
  had
• 4:19
  a
• 4:19
  major
• 4:19
  milestone
• 4:20
  yesterday
• 4:21
  in
• 4:21
  the
• 4:21
  House
• 4:22
  Environmental
• 4:22
  Committee
• 4:22
  getting
• 4:23
  it
• 4:23
  over
• 4:23
  that.
• 4:24
  And
• 4:24
  hopefully,
• 4:26
  barring
• 4:26
  any
• 4:27
  unforeseen
• 4:27
  circumstances,
• 4:28
  it'll
• 4:28
  be
• 4:28
  on
• 4:28
  the
• 4:28
  governor's
• 4:29
  desk
• 4:29
  by
• 4:30
  mid
• 4:30
  next
• 4:31
  month.
• 4:32
  And
• 4:32
  Bork
• 4:33
  asset
• 4:33
  suppositories
• 4:34
  will
• 4:34
  be
• 4:34
  protected
• 4:34
  for
• 4:35
  women
• 4:35
  everywhere.
• 4:36
  Oh,
• 4:37
  gosh.
• 4:37
  Wow.
• 4:37
  Well,
• 4:38
  congratulations.
• 4:38
  Thank
• 4:39
  you.
• 4:39
  Huge
• 4:39
  for
• 4:39
  women.
• 4:40
  I
• 4:40
  know.
• 4:40
  That
• 4:40
  was
• 4:40
  quite
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  mouthful,
• 4:41
  too.
• 4:43
  It's
• 4:43
  good
• 4:43
  because
• 4:44
  you're
• 4:44
  showing
• 4:44
  your
• 4:45
  journey,
• 4:45
  and
• 4:45
  it
• 4:45
  has
• 4:46
  been
• 4:46
  such
• 4:47
  a
• 4:47
  multifaceted
• 4:48
  journey
• 4:49
  for
• 4:49
  you.
• 4:49
  It's
• 4:50
  not
• 4:50
  just
• 4:50
  creating
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  product.
• 4:52
  It
• 4:53
  is
• 4:53
  the
• 4:53
  advocacy.
• 4:54
  So
• 4:54
  what
• 4:55
  is
• 4:55
  it
• 4:55
  about
• 4:55
  boric
• 4:56
  acid
• 4:57
  that
• 4:57
  women
• 4:57
  should
• 4:58
  be
• 4:58
  implementing
• 4:59
  in
• 4:59
  their
• 5:00
  regime,
• 5:00
  in
• 5:00
  their
• 5:01
  feminine
• 5:02
  care
• 5:02
  regime?
• 5:02
  Do
• 5:02
  you
• 5:03
  know
• 5:03
  boric
• 5:04
  acid
• 5:04
  has
• 5:05
  been
• 5:05
  used
• 5:05
  for
• 5:06
  over
• 5:06
  100
• 5:07
  years
• 5:07
  in
• 5:07
  feminine
• 5:07
  care?
• 5:08
  And,
• 5:10
  you
• 5:10
  know,
• 5:10
  I
• 5:10
  like
• 5:10
  this
• 5:11
  quote,
• 5:11
  that
• 5:12
  life
• 5:12
  is
• 5:12
  not
• 5:12
  happening
• 5:13
  to
• 5:14
  you
• 5:14
  before
• 5:14
  you.
• 5:15
  Which
• 5:16
  I
• 5:16
  think
• 5:16
  my
• 5:16
  journey
• 5:17
  has
• 5:17
  been
• 5:18
  a
• 5:18
  perfect
• 5:18
  example
• 5:19
  of
• 5:19
  that,
• 5:20
  because
• 5:21
  in
• 5:21
  this
• 5:21
  small,
• 5:23
  rural
• 5:24
  Mississippi
• 5:24
  town
• 5:24
  that
• 5:25
  I
• 5:25
  grew
• 5:25
  up
• 5:25
  in,
• 5:26
  in
• 5:27
  our
• 5:27
  family
• 5:28
  farmhouse,
• 5:29
  has
• 5:29
  been
• 5:29
  there
• 5:29
  for
• 5:29
  over
• 5:30
  100
• 5:30
  years,
• 5:31
  there
• 5:31
  is
• 5:31
  a
• 5:31
  bottle
• 5:32
  of
• 5:32
  boric
• 5:32
  acid
• 5:33
  in
• 5:33
  every
• 5:33
  bathroom.
• 5:35
  Even
• 5:35
  my
• 5:36
  great
• 5:36
  great
• 5:37
  grandmother
• 5:37
  was
• 5:38
  using
• 5:38
  it
• 5:38
  for
• 5:38
  her
• 5:39
  feminine
• 5:39
  hygiene
• 5:39
  and
• 5:40
  care,
• 5:41
  you
• 5:41
  know,
• 5:42
  over
• 5:42
  a
• 5:42
  hundred
• 5:43
  years
• 5:43
  ago.
• 5:44
  And
• 5:44
  it's
• 5:45
  such
• 5:45
  a
• 5:45
  unique
• 5:46
  ingredient.
• 5:46
  It
• 5:47
  has
• 5:48
  antimicrobial
• 5:50
  effects
• 5:50
  and
• 5:50
  antifungal
• 5:51
  properties.
• 5:52
  So
• 5:53
  in
• 5:53
  Canada,
• 5:53
  we're
• 5:54
  required
• 5:54
  to
• 5:54
  market
• 5:55
  as
• 5:55
  a
• 5:55
  yeast
• 5:55
  infection
• 5:56
  treatment.
• 5:57
  And
• 5:58
  that's
• 5:58
  actually
• 5:58
  what
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  CDC
• 5:59
  and
• 5:59
  ACOG
• 6:00
  recommend
• 6:00
  its
• 6:00
  use
• 6:01
  for.
• 6:03
  But
• 6:03
  in
• 6:03
  the
• 6:03
  US
• 6:03
  we're
• 6:04
  required
• 6:04
  to
• 6:04
  market
• 6:04
  as
• 6:05
  a
• 6:05
  cosmetic
• 6:05
  for
• 6:06
  vaginal
• 6:06
  odor.
• 6:07
  But
• 6:07
  it
• 6:07
  is
• 6:09
  kind
• 6:09
  of
• 6:09
  this
• 6:10
  miracle
• 6:10
  ingredient
• 6:11
  that
• 6:12
  is
• 6:12
  great
• 6:13
  for
• 6:13
  both
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  those
• 6:14
  instances.
• 6:15
  Vaginal
• 6:15
  itch
• 6:16
  and
• 6:16
  odor,
• 6:17
  two
• 6:17
  of
• 6:17
  the
• 6:17
  top
• 6:18
  reasons
• 6:18
  a
• 6:18
  woman
• 6:18
  will
• 6:19
  visit
• 6:19
  a
• 6:19
  doctor
• 6:19
  in
• 6:20
  their
• 6:20
  lifetime.
• 6:21
  These
• 6:21
  things
• 6:21
  are
• 6:21
  very
• 6:21
  common,
• 6:22
  but
• 6:23
  you
• 6:23
  really
• 6:23
  don't
• 6:23
  talk
• 6:24
  about
• 6:24
  them
• 6:24
  a
• 6:24
  whole
• 6:24
  lot,
• 6:25
  which
• 6:25
  something
• 6:25
  we're
• 6:26
  trying
• 6:26
  to
• 6:27
  change
• 6:27
  and
• 6:28
  remove
• 6:28
  that
• 6:28
  stigma.
• 6:29
  But,
• 6:30
  you
• 6:30
  know,
• 6:30
  anything
• 6:31
  can
• 6:31
  throw
• 6:31
  off,
• 6:32
  you
• 6:32
  know,
• 6:33
  our
• 6:34
  balance.
• 6:35
  You
• 6:35
  know,
• 6:35
  it
• 6:35
  could
• 6:35
  be
• 6:35
  intercourse,
• 6:37
  it
• 6:37
  could
• 6:37
  be
• 6:37
  your
• 6:38
  period,
• 6:38
  it
• 6:39
  could
• 6:39
  be
• 6:39
  menopause,
• 6:41
  hormonal
• 6:42
  fluctuations,
• 6:43
  sweat,
• 6:44
  gym,
• 6:46
  bathing
• 6:46
  suits,
• 6:47
  all
• 6:47
  of
• 6:47
  those
• 6:48
  things.
• 6:48
  So
• 6:48
  it's
• 6:48
  a
• 6:49
  great
• 6:50
  product.
• 6:51
  Ph.D.
• 6:51
  boric
• 6:52
  acid
• 6:52
  suppositories
• 6:53
  to
• 6:53
  have,
• 6:53
  you
• 6:53
  know,
• 6:54
  in
• 6:54
  your
• 6:54
  cosmetic
• 6:55
  bag
• 6:55
  if
• 6:55
  you're
• 6:55
  traveling,
• 6:57
  just
• 6:57
  to
• 6:57
  help
• 6:58
  restore
• 6:58
  things
• 6:59
  and
• 6:59
  get
• 6:59
  things
• 6:59
  back
• 7:00
  to
• 7:00
  normal
• 7:01
  or
• 7:02
  to
• 7:02
  help
• 7:02
  you
• 7:03
  if
• 7:03
  you're
• 7:03
  suffering
• 7:03
  from
• 7:04
  any
• 7:04
  of
• 7:04
  those
• 7:05
  issues.
• 7:06
  You
• 7:06
  know,
• 7:07
  it's
• 7:07
  quite
• 7:07
  a
• 7:07
  bold
• 7:07
  move
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  create
• 7:08
  a
• 7:09
  product
• 7:09
  specifically
• 7:10
  for
• 7:11
  feminine
• 7:11
  hygiene
• 7:12
  and
• 7:12
  feminine
• 7:12
  health.
• 7:13
  So
• 7:14
  what
• 7:14
  was
• 7:14
  the
• 7:14
  impetus
• 7:15
  behind
• 7:15
  that?
• 7:15
  Especially
• 7:16
  because,
• 7:17
  you
• 7:17
  know,
• 7:17
  generally
• 7:18
  speaking,
• 7:18
  feminine
• 7:19
  health
• 7:19
  and
• 7:19
  hygiene
• 7:20
  are
• 7:20
  sort
• 7:20
  of
• 7:20
  these
• 7:21
  taboo
• 7:21
  topics
• 7:22
  that
• 7:22
  are
• 7:22
  filled
• 7:22
  with
• 7:22
  shame
• 7:23
  and
• 7:23
  stigma
• 7:24
  and
• 7:24
  really
• 7:25
  silence.
• 7:25
  There's
• 7:26
  not
• 7:26
  a
• 7:26
  lot
• 7:26
  of
• 7:26
  education
• 7:27
  about
• 7:27
  it.
• 7:27
  So
• 7:28
  why
• 7:28
  step
• 7:28
  into
• 7:29
  this
• 7:29
  market
• 7:29
  and
• 7:29
  create
• 7:30
  a
• 7:30
  product
• 7:30
  like
• 7:30
  this?
• 7:31
  Yeah,
• 7:32
  you
• 7:32
  know
• 7:32
  that
• 7:32
  saying,
• 7:33
  necessity
• 7:33
  is
• 7:33
  the
• 7:33
  mother
• 7:34
  of
• 7:34
  invention.
• 7:34
  My
• 7:35
  story
• 7:36
  is
• 7:37
  epitome
• 7:38
  of
• 7:38
  that.
• 7:38
  I
• 7:39
  spent
• 7:39
  20
• 7:39
  years
• 7:40
  working
• 7:40
  in
• 7:40
  the
• 7:40
  pharmaceutical
• 7:41
  industry
• 7:42
  and
• 7:42
  have
• 7:42
  a
• 7:43
  degree
• 7:43
  in
• 7:43
  biology,
• 7:44
  so
• 7:44
  love
• 7:45
  science
• 7:45
  and
• 7:45
  the
• 7:45
  business
• 7:46
  of
• 7:46
  science.
• 7:47
  I
• 7:47
  had
• 7:47
  been
• 7:47
  on
• 7:48
  so
• 7:49
  many
• 7:49
  antibiotics
• 7:50
  for
• 7:50
  sinus
• 7:50
  infections,
• 7:52
  and
• 7:52
  we
• 7:53
  know
• 7:53
  when
• 7:53
  we're
• 7:53
  on
• 7:53
  antibiotics,
• 7:54
  it
• 7:54
  completely
• 7:54
  disrupts
• 7:55
  our
• 7:55
  flora.
• 7:56
  I
• 7:56
  was
• 7:56
  looking
• 7:57
  for
• 7:57
  a
• 7:57
  holistic
• 7:58
  alternative
• 7:59
  backed
• 8:00
  by
• 8:00
  science,
• 8:00
  and
• 8:00
  I
• 8:00
  found
• 8:01
  it
• 8:01
  in
• 8:01
  this
• 8:01
  ingredient,
• 8:02
  boric
• 8:03
  acid.
• 8:03
  But
• 8:04
  nobody
• 8:04
  was
• 8:04
  making
• 8:05
  it
• 8:05
  commercially.
• 8:06
  You
• 8:06
  could
• 8:06
  only
• 8:07
  get
• 8:07
  it
• 8:07
  made
• 8:08
  in
• 8:08
  a
• 8:08
  compounding
• 8:09
  pharmacy.
• 8:09
  And
• 8:09
  it
• 8:09
  was
• 8:10
  so
• 8:10
  expensive.
• 8:11
  And
• 8:12
  I
• 8:12
  just
• 8:12
  was
• 8:12
  sitting
• 8:13
  there
• 8:13
  thinking,
• 8:13
  like,
• 8:14
  there
• 8:14
  are
• 8:14
  millions
• 8:15
  of
• 8:15
  women
• 8:15
  who
• 8:15
  could
• 8:15
  benefit
• 8:16
  from
• 8:16
  having
• 8:16
  this
• 8:17
  product
• 8:18
  readily
• 8:19
  available.
• 8:20
  And
• 8:21
  it
• 8:21
  just
• 8:21
  so
• 8:21
  happens
• 8:22
  my
• 8:22
  daughter's
• 8:23
  coach
• 8:23
  had
• 8:23
  a
• 8:23
  manufacturing
• 8:24
  facility,
• 8:25
  and
• 8:25
  I
• 8:25
  felt
• 8:26
  that
• 8:26
  moral
• 8:26
  obligation
• 8:28
  to
• 8:28
  do
• 8:28
  my
• 8:29
  best
• 8:29
  effort
• 8:30
  to
• 8:30
  bring
• 8:30
  it
• 8:30
  forward
• 8:30
  to
• 8:31
  the
• 8:31
  market.
• 8:31
  And
• 8:32
  we'd
• 8:32
  launched
• 8:33
  it
• 8:33
  in
• 8:33
  2014
• 8:34
  on
• 8:34
  Amazon,
• 8:35
  and
• 8:35
  within
• 8:35
  six
• 8:36
  months
• 8:36
  it
• 8:36
  became
• 8:37
  a
• 8:37
  bestseller
• 8:37
  in
• 8:37
  its
• 8:38
  category.
• 8:39
  And
• 8:40
  it
• 8:40
  was
• 8:40
  really
• 8:40
  interesting.
• 8:42
  We
• 8:42
  knew
• 8:42
  we
• 8:42
  were
• 8:42
  onto
• 8:43
  something
• 8:43
  because
• 8:43
  of
• 8:43
  the
• 8:44
  velocity,
• 8:44
  but
• 8:45
  most
• 8:45
  importantly,
• 8:46
  because
• 8:46
  of
• 8:46
  the
• 8:46
  reviews
• 8:46
  of
• 8:47
  women
• 8:47
  who.
• 8:48
  Who
• 8:48
  had
• 8:48
  used
• 8:48
  it,
• 8:49
  particularly
• 8:49
  when
• 8:49
  it
• 8:50
  came
• 8:50
  to
• 8:50
  vaginal
• 8:50
  odor.
• 8:51
  So
• 8:52
  we
• 8:52
  don't
• 8:53
  typically
• 8:53
  talk
• 8:53
  about
• 8:53
  vaginal
• 8:54
  odor
• 8:54
  ever.
• 8:54
  I
• 8:55
  think
• 8:55
  we're
• 8:55
  one
• 8:55
  of
• 8:55
  the
• 8:56
  first
• 8:56
  companies
• 8:56
  to
• 8:57
  Do
• 8:57
  a
• 8:57
  commercial
• 8:58
  about
• 8:58
  it
• 8:58
  and
• 8:59
  to
• 8:59
  create
• 9:00
  a
• 9:00
  platform
• 9:00
  for
• 9:01
  women
• 9:01
  to
• 9:01
  discuss
• 9:01
  it.
• 9:02
  It's
• 9:03
  very,
• 9:03
  very
• 9:03
  common.
• 9:04
  And
• 9:05
  like
• 9:05
  I
• 9:05
  said,
• 9:05
  so
• 9:05
  many
• 9:06
  different
• 9:06
  things
• 9:06
  can
• 9:06
  cause
• 9:07
  it.
• 9:07
  But
• 9:08
  it's
• 9:09
  deeply
• 9:09
  personal.
• 9:10
  And
• 9:10
  most
• 9:11
  women
• 9:11
  feel
• 9:12
  that
• 9:12
  sense
• 9:13
  of
• 9:13
  shame
• 9:13
  and
• 9:14
  stigma
• 9:14
  associated
• 9:14
  with
• 9:15
  it,
• 9:15
  like
• 9:15
  it's
• 9:15
  their
• 9:15
  fault
• 9:17
  they've
• 9:17
  done
• 9:17
  something
• 9:17
  wrong
• 9:18
  to
• 9:18
  cause
• 9:18
  it.
• 9:19
  And
• 9:20
  so
• 9:20
  to
• 9:21
  see
• 9:21
  these
• 9:21
  women's
• 9:21
  stories
• 9:22
  with
• 9:22
  the
• 9:22
  reviews,
• 9:24
  one
• 9:24
  thing
• 9:24
  about
• 9:25
  that
• 9:25
  condition
• 9:25
  is
• 9:26
  that
• 9:26
  it's
• 9:26
  recurrent
• 9:27
  50%
• 9:27
  of
• 9:28
  the
• 9:28
  time
• 9:28
  in
• 9:28
  women
• 9:28
  who
• 9:29
  have
• 9:29
  it.
• 9:30
  So
• 9:30
  if
• 9:30
  you
• 9:30
  think
• 9:30
  about
• 9:31
  that,
• 9:32
  you
• 9:32
  know,
• 9:33
  half
• 9:33
  of
• 9:33
  the
• 9:33
  women
• 9:34
  who
• 9:34
  get
• 9:34
  it,
• 9:35
  they
• 9:35
  get
• 9:35
  it
• 9:35
  frequently.
• 9:37
  And
• 9:37
  women
• 9:38
  were
• 9:38
  talking
• 9:39
  about
• 9:39
  how,
• 9:40
  you
• 9:40
  know,
• 9:41
  of
• 9:41
  course
• 9:41
  they
• 9:41
  didn't
• 9:42
  want
• 9:42
  to
• 9:42
  be
• 9:42
  intimate,
• 9:43
  they
• 9:43
  didn't
• 9:44
  want
• 9:44
  to
• 9:44
  go
• 9:44
  to
• 9:44
  the
• 9:45
  gym,
• 9:45
  put
• 9:45
  a
• 9:45
  bathing
• 9:46
  suit
• 9:46
  on,
• 9:46
  or
• 9:46
  even
• 9:46
  get
• 9:47
  a
• 9:47
  pedicure
• 9:48
  because
• 9:48
  they
• 9:48
  were
• 9:49
  too
• 9:49
  ashamed
• 9:50
  that
• 9:50
  someone
• 9:50
  might
• 9:51
  smell
• 9:51
  them.
• 9:52
  And
• 9:53
  so
• 9:54
  to
• 9:54
  really
• 9:54
  remove
• 9:55
  that
• 9:55
  shame
• 9:56
  and
• 9:56
  stigma
• 9:56
  and
• 9:56
  let
• 9:56
  them
• 9:57
  know
• 9:57
  it's
• 9:57
  not
• 9:57
  their
• 9:57
  fault
• 9:58
  and
• 9:58
  that
• 9:58
  there's
• 9:58
  a
• 9:59
  simple
• 9:59
  solution
• 10:00
  that
• 10:00
  can
• 10:00
  help,
• 10:01
  you
• 10:01
  know,
• 10:01
  with
• 10:01
  this
• 10:02
  condition
• 10:02
  has
• 10:03
  been
• 10:04
  one
• 10:04
  of
• 10:04
  the
• 10:05
  most
• 10:05
  gratifying
• 10:07
  aspects
• 10:07
  of
• 10:07
  this
• 10:07
  whole
• 10:08
  journey.
• 10:09
  And
• 10:10
  to
• 10:10
  be
• 10:11
  in
• 10:11
  places
• 10:11
  like
• 10:12
  I'm
• 10:12
  at
• 10:12
  a
• 10:12
  lot
• 10:12
  of
• 10:12
  conferences
• 10:13
  and
• 10:14
  where
• 10:14
  I
• 10:14
  interact
• 10:15
  with
• 10:15
  healthcare
• 10:16
  providers
• 10:17
  and
• 10:17
  with
• 10:18
  consumers,
• 10:19
  and
• 10:19
  I
• 10:20
  have
• 10:20
  had
• 10:21
  men
• 10:21
  and
• 10:21
  women
• 10:22
  alike
• 10:22
  come
• 10:23
  up
• 10:23
  to
• 10:23
  me
• 10:23
  with
• 10:23
  tears
• 10:24
  streaming
• 10:24
  down
• 10:24
  their
• 10:25
  faces
• 10:25
  saying,
• 10:26
  your
• 10:27
  product
• 10:27
  saved
• 10:27
  our
• 10:27
  marriage.
• 10:28
  Because
• 10:28
  intimacy
• 10:29
  is
• 10:29
  such
• 10:29
  a
• 10:29
  huge
• 10:30
  part
• 10:30
  of
• 10:30
  that
• 10:30
  journey.
• 10:31
  And
• 10:31
  if
• 10:31
  you're
• 10:31
  not,
• 10:32
  that's
• 10:32
  not
• 10:32
  part
• 10:32
  of
• 10:33
  the
• 10:33
  equation,
• 10:34
  then
• 10:35
  you
• 10:35
  know,
• 10:35
  the
• 10:35
  relationship
• 10:36
  is
• 10:36
  going
• 10:36
  to
• 10:36
  suffer.
• 10:37
  So.
• 10:38
  Or
• 10:38
  having
• 10:38
  healthcare
• 10:39
  providers
• 10:40
  say,
• 10:40
  you
• 10:41
  know,
• 10:41
  you've
• 10:42
  changed
• 10:43
  hundreds
• 10:43
  of
• 10:43
  our
• 10:43
  patients
• 10:44
  lives.
• 10:44
  So
• 10:45
  it's
• 10:45
  been
• 10:46
  so
• 10:46
  validating
• 10:47
  to
• 10:47
  know
• 10:48
  that
• 10:49
  that
• 10:49
  nudge
• 10:50
  that
• 10:50
  I
• 10:50
  had,
• 10:51
  you
• 10:51
  know,
• 10:51
  11
• 10:51
  years
• 10:51
  ago
• 10:52
  is
• 10:52
  in
• 10:53
  the
• 10:53
  right
• 10:53
  direction.
• 10:54
  Absolutely.
• 10:55
  And
• 10:55
  really,
• 10:55
  like,
• 10:56
  you're
• 10:56
  saying
• 10:56
  that
• 10:56
  can
• 10:57
  affect
• 10:57
  quality
• 10:57
  of
• 10:57
  life
• 10:58
  for
• 10:58
  so
• 10:58
  many
• 10:59
  women
• 10:59
  and
• 10:59
  men
• 11:00
  totally
• 11:00
  for
• 11:00
  their
• 11:01
  partners,
• 11:01
  you
• 11:01
  know,
• 11:03
  so
• 11:03
  because
• 11:03
  this
• 11:04
  is
• 11:04
  such
• 11:04
  a
• 11:05
  still
• 11:05
  taboo
• 11:05
  subject
• 11:06
  to
• 11:06
  talk
• 11:06
  about,
• 11:07
  what
• 11:07
  are
• 11:07
  some
• 11:08
  of
• 11:08
  the
• 11:08
  myths
• 11:08
  that
• 11:09
  you
• 11:09
  want
• 11:09
  to
• 11:09
  bust
• 11:10
  about
• 11:11
  feminine
• 11:11
  health
• 11:12
  and
• 11:12
  feminine
• 11:12
  hygiene?
• 11:13
  Yeah,
• 11:14
  that,
• 11:15
  you
• 11:15
  know,
• 11:15
  it's
• 11:16
  not
• 11:16
  your
• 11:16
  fault.
• 11:19
  This
• 11:19
  is
• 11:19
  crazy.
• 11:20
  We
• 11:20
  even
• 11:21
  get
• 11:21
  calls
• 11:23
  from
• 11:23
  partners
• 11:25
  who
• 11:25
  are
• 11:26
  saying,
• 11:26
  you
• 11:27
  know,
• 11:27
  I
• 11:27
  think
• 11:27
  my
• 11:27
  wife's
• 11:28
  had
• 11:28
  an
• 11:28
  affair.
• 11:28
  Cause
• 11:28
  all
• 11:28
  of
• 11:29
  a
• 11:29
  sudden
• 11:29
  she's
• 11:29
  got
• 11:29
  vaginal
• 11:30
  odor
• 11:30
  and
• 11:30
  she's
• 11:30
  never
• 11:31
  had
• 11:31
  it
• 11:31
  before.
• 11:31
  Like,
• 11:31
  what's
• 11:32
  going
• 11:32
  on?
• 11:33
  And
• 11:33

  So

  there
• 11:40
  is
• 11:41
  just
• 11:41
  so
• 11:42
  much

  about,

  let
• 11:59
  them

  know

  that

  it's

  it's.

  to

  these
• 12:11
  conversations.
• 12:11
  And
• 12:11
  I
• 12:12
  love
• 12:12
  it
• 12:12
  that
• 12:13
  women
• 12:13
  are
• 12:13
  constantly
• 12:14
  tagging
• 12:15
  their

  our

  that,
• 12:20
  you
• 12:20
  know,
• 12:21
  we
• 12:21
  shouldn't
• 12:21
  be
• 12:21
  ashamed.
• 12:22
  We're
• 12:22
  women
• 12:23
  and
• 12:23
  need
• 12:23
  to,
• 12:24
  you
• 12:24
  know,

  this
• 12:25
  sisterhood

  each
• 12:27
  other
• 12:28
  out
• 12:28
  every
• 12:28
  way
• 12:29
  possible.
• 12:29
  You
• 12:30
  know,
• 12:30
  it's
• 12:30
  interesting
• 12:31
  too,
• 12:31
  because
• 12:31
  it
• 12:31
  is
• 12:32
  a
• 12:32
  holistic,
• 12:33
  science
• 12:33
  based,
• 12:33
  you
• 12:34
  know,
• 12:34
  back
• 12:34
  to
• 12:35
  Caroline.
• 12:36
  So
• 12:37
  what
• 12:37
  challenges
• 12:38
  did
• 12:38
  you
• 12:38
  face
• 12:39
  from
• 12:39
  people,
• 12:40
  even
• 12:40
  retailers,
• 12:41
  about
• 12:42
  when
• 12:42
  you
• 12:42
  were
• 12:42
  starting
• 12:43
  this
• 12:43
  company?
• 12:43
  Like,
• 12:43
  were
• 12:44
  people
• 12:44
  saying,
• 12:44
  no,
• 12:45
  don't
• 12:45
  do
• 12:45
  this,
• 12:45
  or
• 12:46
  we're
• 12:46
  not
• 12:46
  interested
• 12:47
  in
• 12:47
  this
• 12:47
  product
• 12:47
  because
• 12:48
  of
• 12:48
  what
• 12:48
  it,
• 12:48
  what
• 12:49
  it
• 12:49
  was
• 12:49
  for?
• 12:49
  Yeah.
• 12:51
  So
• 12:51
  it's
• 12:52
  interesting.
• 12:53
  I,
• 12:54
  I
• 12:55
  kept
• 12:55
  this
• 12:56
  venture
• 12:57
  of
• 12:57
  mine
• 12:57
  a
• 12:58
  secret.
• 13:00
  As
• 13:00
  so
• 13:01
  many
• 13:01
  of
• 13:01
  us
• 13:01
  do
• 13:01
  when
• 13:01
  we're
• 13:01
  starting
• 13:02
  a
• 13:02
  new
• 13:02
  business.
• 13:02
  Women.
• 13:03
  Right.
• 13:03
  You

  know,
• 13:04
  I'll
• 13:05
  tell
• 13:05
  you
• 13:05
  why
• 13:05
  I
• 13:05
  did
• 13:05
  it
• 13:05
  and
• 13:05
  you
• 13:06
  can
• 13:06
  tell
• 13:06
  me
• 13:06
  if
• 13:06
  it's
• 13:06
  the
• 13:06
  same.
• 13:08
  I
• 13:08
  didn't
• 13:08
  want
• 13:08
  the
• 13:08
  negative
• 13:09
  energy
• 13:09
  associated
• 13:10
  with
• 13:11
  somebody
• 13:11
  putting
• 13:12
  down
• 13:12
  my
• 13:12
  idea
• 13:13
  to
• 13:13
  help
• 13:14
  cloud
• 13:14
  my
• 13:15
  vision
• 13:15
  or
• 13:15
  my
• 13:16
  drive.
• 13:16
  I
• 13:17
  don't
• 13:17
  know
• 13:17
  if
• 13:17
  that's
• 13:17
  how
• 13:18
  you.
• 13:18
  Felt,
• 13:18
  but
• 13:19
  yeah,
• 13:19
  I
• 13:19
  mean,
• 13:19
  I
• 13:19
  definitely,
• 13:20
  you
• 13:21
  know,
• 13:21
  I
• 13:21
  totally
• 13:21
  get
• 13:22
  that.
• 13:22
  Cause
• 13:22
  you
• 13:22
  just
• 13:22
  don't
• 13:22
  want
• 13:23
  that
• 13:23
  outside
• 13:23
  noise.
• 13:24
  And
• 13:25
  it
• 13:25
  also
• 13:25
  kind
• 13:25
  of
• 13:26
  shakes
• 13:27
  your
• 13:27
  belief
• 13:27
  in
• 13:27
  yourself
• 13:28
  too,
• 13:29
  right.
• 13:29
  You
• 13:29
  know,
• 13:30
  where
• 13:30
  you're
• 13:30
  just
• 13:31
  like,
• 13:31
  oh
• 13:31
  my
• 13:31
  God,
• 13:31
  can
• 13:32
  I
• 13:32
  do
• 13:32
  this?
• 13:32
  Because
• 13:32
  so
• 13:33
  and
• 13:33
  so
• 13:33
  maybe
• 13:33
  so
• 13:33
  and
• 13:34
  so
• 13:34
  thinks
• 13:34
  it's
• 13:34
  not
• 13:34
  a
• 13:34
  great
• 13:35
  idea.
• 13:36
  And
• 13:36
  then
• 13:36
  you
• 13:36
  take
• 13:36
  that
• 13:37
  in
• 13:37
  and
• 13:38
  there's
• 13:38
  so
• 13:38
  many
• 13:38
  women
• 13:39
  that
• 13:40
  like.
• 13:40
  And
• 13:40
  men,
• 13:40
  I
• 13:41
  mean,
• 13:41
  everybody.
• 13:41
  But,
• 13:42
  you
• 13:42
  know,
• 13:42
  there's
• 13:42
  so
• 13:43
  many
• 13:43
  people
• 13:43
  that
• 13:44
  won't
• 13:44
  go
• 13:44
  forward
• 13:45
  with
• 13:45
  their
• 13:45
  idea
• 13:46
  because
• 13:46
  they
• 13:46
  listen
• 13:47
  to
• 13:47
  the
• 13:47
  outside
• 13:47
  noise.
• 13:48
  Absolutely.
• 13:49
  And
• 13:49
  I
• 13:49
  think
• 13:49
  that
• 13:51
  I
• 13:52
  saw
• 13:52
  that
• 13:52
  potential,
• 13:53
  so
• 13:53
  I
• 13:53
  kept
• 13:54
  it
• 13:54
  close
• 13:55
  and
• 13:56
  I
• 13:56
  only
• 13:56
  told
• 13:57
  a
• 13:57
  few
• 13:57
  people
• 13:57
  about
• 13:58
  it.
• 13:58
  So
• 13:58
  it
• 13:58
  was
• 13:59
  my
• 13:59
  side
• 13:59
  hustle
• 14:00
  for
• 14:00
  three
• 14:00
  years
• 14:01
  before
• 14:01
  I
• 14:03
  left
• 14:03
  my
• 14:03
  corporate
• 14:04
  job
• 14:04
  because
• 14:04
  I
• 14:04
  was
• 14:05
  a
• 14:05
  single
• 14:05
  mom
• 14:06
  and
• 14:07
  had
• 14:08
  all
• 14:08
  of
• 14:08
  the,
• 14:09
  you
• 14:10
  know,
• 14:10
  security
• 14:11
  that
• 14:11
  I
• 14:11
  thought
• 14:11
  that
• 14:11
  I
• 14:12
  needed
• 14:12
  with
• 14:12
  my
• 14:13
  health
• 14:13
  insurance
• 14:13
  and
• 14:14
  all
• 14:14
  the
• 14:14
  things.
• 14:15
  And
• 14:17
  so
• 14:17
  I
• 14:17
  kept
• 14:18
  it
• 14:18
  quiet
• 14:19
  while
• 14:20
  I
• 14:20
  was.
• 14:20
  Kept
• 14:20
  my
• 14:20
  head
• 14:21
  down
• 14:21
  and
• 14:21
  doing
• 14:22
  it
• 14:22
  on
• 14:22
  the
• 14:22
  side.
• 14:23
  And
• 14:25
  it
• 14:25
  was
• 14:25
  interesting
• 14:26
  when
• 14:26
  I
• 14:26
  finally
• 14:27
  left
• 14:27
  my
• 14:27
  corporate
• 14:27
  job
• 14:27
  to
• 14:28
  come
• 14:28
  run
• 14:28
  the
• 14:28
  company
• 14:29
  full
• 14:29
  time,
• 14:30
  One
• 14:31
  of
• 14:31
  our
• 14:32
  first
• 14:32
  goals
• 14:33
  was
• 14:33
  to
• 14:34
  get
• 14:34
  it
• 14:35
  in
• 14:35
  the
• 14:35
  hands
• 14:35
  of
• 14:35
  women
• 14:36
  when
• 14:36
  they
• 14:36
  needed
• 14:36
  it
• 14:36
  most
• 14:37
  at
• 14:37
  a
• 14:37
  retailer.
• 14:39
  Because
• 14:39
  Amazon
• 14:40
  prime
• 14:40
  back
• 14:40
  then
• 14:41
  was
• 14:41
  much
• 14:42
  different
• 14:42
  than
• 14:42
  it
• 14:42
  is
• 14:42
  today.
• 14:43
  It
• 14:43
  was
• 14:43
  only
• 14:43
  in
• 14:43
  major
• 14:44
  Cities.
• 14:45
  And
• 14:45
  we
• 14:45
  know
• 14:46
  when
• 14:46
  something's
• 14:46
  not
• 14:46
  right
• 14:47
  with
• 14:47
  our
• 14:47
  hoo
• 14:48
  ha
• 14:48
  that
• 14:48
  we
• 14:48
  have
• 14:48
  to,
• 14:49
  we
• 14:49
  gotta
• 14:49
  get
• 14:49
  something,
• 14:50
  we
• 14:50
  gotta
• 14:50
  get
• 14:50
  it
• 14:50
  fixed.
• 14:51
  So
• 14:52
  went
• 14:52
  to
• 14:53
  this
• 14:53
  speed
• 14:54
  dating
• 14:54
  session,
• 14:55
  if
• 14:55
  you
• 14:55
  will,
• 14:55
  with
• 14:56
  retailers
• 14:57
  and
• 14:57
  brands
• 14:58
  and
• 14:58
  was
• 14:58
  able
• 14:59
  to
• 14:59
  pitch
• 15:01
  my
• 15:01
  product.
• 15:03
  And
• 15:03
  Target
• 15:04
  and
• 15:05
  CVS
• 15:05
  fortunately
• 15:06
  took
• 15:06
  me
• 15:06
  in.
• 15:08
  Target
• 15:08
  chain
• 15:08
  wide,
• 15:09
  CVS
• 15:09
  and
• 15:09
  half
• 15:09
  their
• 15:09
  stores.
• 15:10
  And
• 15:12
  so
• 15:14
  Target,
• 15:15
  I
• 15:15
  recently,
• 15:16
  last
• 15:16
  fall
• 15:17
  had
• 15:17
  an
• 15:17
  opportunity
• 15:18
  to
• 15:18
  reconnect
• 15:18
  with
• 15:18
  the
• 15:18
  buyer
• 15:19
  who
• 15:19
  brought
• 15:19
  me
• 15:19
  in
• 15:19
  because
• 15:20
  we
• 15:20
  were
• 15:20
  both
• 15:21
  at
• 15:21
  this
• 15:21
  drugstore
• 15:22
  news
• 15:22
  top
• 15:23
  woman
• 15:23
  in
• 15:23
  retail
• 15:23
  event.
• 15:24
  And
• 15:26
  it
• 15:26
  was
• 15:27
  such
• 15:27
  an
• 15:27
  emotional
• 15:28
  time
• 15:28
  for
• 15:28
  me
• 15:28
  because
• 15:28
  I
• 15:29
  went
• 15:29
  up
• 15:29
  and
• 15:29
  it
• 15:30
  was
• 15:30
  a
• 15:30
  full
• 15:30
  circle
• 15:31
  moment.
• 15:31
  And
• 15:32
  I
• 15:32
  was
• 15:33
  like,
• 15:33
  mimi,
• 15:34
  I
• 15:34
  have
• 15:34
  to
• 15:34
  thank
• 15:35
  you
• 15:35
  for,
• 15:36
  you
• 15:36
  know,
• 15:37
  back
• 15:37
  in
• 15:38
  2018
• 15:38
  agreeing
• 15:39
  to
• 15:39
  bring
• 15:39
  us
• 15:40
  in.
• 15:40
  I
• 15:40
  said,
• 15:41
  she
• 15:41
  goes,
• 15:42
  well,
• 15:42
  let
• 15:42
  me
• 15:42
  tell
• 15:42
  you
• 15:42
  how
• 15:42
  hard
• 15:43
  I
• 15:43
  had
• 15:43
  to
• 15:43
  fight
• 15:43
  for
• 15:43
  you.
• 15:44
  And
• 15:45
  back
• 15:45
  to
• 15:46
  your
• 15:46
  point,
• 15:48
  what
• 15:49
  I
• 15:49
  knew
• 15:49
  was
• 15:49
  healthcare
• 15:50
  professional
• 15:50
  marketing
• 15:51
  and
• 15:51
  how
• 15:51
  effective
• 15:52
  that
• 15:52
  was,
• 15:52
  having
• 15:53
  spent
• 15:53
  20
• 15:53
  years
• 15:54
  in
• 15:54
  the
• 15:54
  pharmaceutical
• 15:54
  industry.
• 15:55
  And
• 15:57
  so
• 15:57
  that
• 15:57
  was
• 15:57
  part
• 15:57
  of
• 15:58
  my
• 15:58
  pitch,
• 15:58
  was
• 15:58
  how
• 15:58
  I
• 15:58
  was
• 15:59
  marketing
• 15:59
  the
• 15:59
  product.
• 15:59
  But
• 16:00
  she
• 16:00
  said,
• 16:00
  I
• 16:00
  had
• 16:00
  to
• 16:01
  fight
• 16:01
  so
• 16:01
  hard
• 16:01
  to
• 16:01
  bring
• 16:02
  in
• 16:02
  your
• 16:02
  one
• 16:02
  sku
• 16:03
  and.
• 16:03
  And
• 16:04
  particularly
• 16:05
  with
• 16:05
  the
• 16:05
  category
• 16:06
  that
• 16:06
  it
• 16:06
  covered,
• 16:07
  you
• 16:07
  know,
• 16:07
  as
• 16:07
  we
• 16:07
  were
• 16:07
  talking
• 16:08
  about,
• 16:08
  she
• 16:09
  goes,
• 16:09
  but
• 16:09
  I
• 16:10
  saw
• 16:10
  the
• 16:10
  reviews
• 16:10
  of
• 16:11
  the
• 16:11
  women
• 16:12
  and
• 16:13
  I
• 16:13
  was
• 16:14
  dumbfounded
• 16:15
  by
• 16:15
  them
• 16:15
  and
• 16:15
  I
• 16:16
  knew
• 16:16
  that
• 16:16
  you
• 16:16
  were
• 16:16
  onto
• 16:16
  something,
• 16:17
  so
• 16:17
  I
• 16:17
  had
• 16:17
  to
• 16:18
  fight
• 16:18
  with
• 16:18
  senior
• 16:18
  management
• 16:19
  to
• 16:19
  do
• 16:19
  it.
• 16:21
  But
• 16:21
  on
• 16:21
  top
• 16:21
  of
• 16:22
  that,
• 16:22
  you
• 16:22
  know,
• 16:22
  fighting
• 16:24
  the
• 16:25
  shadow
• 16:26
  banning
• 16:28
  that
• 16:28
  we
• 16:29
  we
• 16:29
  face
• 16:30
  with
• 16:30
  meta
• 16:31
  and
• 16:31
  with
• 16:31
  being
• 16:32
  able
• 16:32
  to
• 16:32
  run
• 16:32
  our
• 16:33
  commercials
• 16:33
  on
• 16:34
  tv,
• 16:35
  are.
• 16:35
  You
• 16:35
  still
• 16:35
  dealing
• 16:36
  with
• 16:36
  that?
• 16:36
  I
• 16:36
  mean,
• 16:36
  is
• 16:36
  it.
• 16:36
  We
• 16:37
  are.
• 16:38
  We
• 16:38
  are.
• 16:40
  Because
• 16:40
  vagina
• 16:40
  is
• 16:41
  a
• 16:41
  bad
• 16:41
  word,
• 16:41
  right?
• 16:42
  In
• 16:42
  the
• 16:42
  eyes
• 16:42
  of
• 16:43
  social
• 16:43
  media.
• 16:44
  Oh
• 16:44
  my
• 16:44
  goodness.
• 16:44
  It
• 16:45
  has
• 16:45
  been
• 16:45
  one
• 16:45
  of
• 16:45
  the
• 16:45
  most
• 16:45
  frustrating
• 16:46
  experiences.
• 16:47
  We
• 16:48
  had
• 16:48
  this
• 16:48
  wonderful
• 16:49
  ad
• 16:49
  campaign,
• 16:51
  so
• 16:51
  we
• 16:51
  knew
• 16:52
  we
• 16:52
  couldn't
• 16:52
  say
• 16:52
  the
• 16:52
  word
• 16:52
  vagina
• 16:53
  on
• 16:53
  tv,
• 16:54
  so
• 16:54
  we
• 16:54
  used
• 16:55
  to
• 16:55
  euphemisms
• 16:56
  instead
• 16:58
  where
• 16:58
  we
• 16:58
  said
• 16:59
  earlier,
• 16:59
  I
• 16:59
  said,
• 16:59
  hoo
• 17:00
  ha
• 17:00
  and
• 17:00
  I
• 17:00
  should
• 17:00
  have
• 17:00
  said
• 17:01
  the
• 17:01
  word
• 17:01
  vagina.
• 17:04
  Let
• 17:04
  me
• 17:04
  correct
• 17:05
  that.
• 17:05
  I
• 17:05
  need
• 17:05
  to
• 17:05
  practice
• 17:06
  what
• 17:06
  I
• 17:06
  preach.
• 17:08
  But
• 17:09
  so
• 17:09
  we
• 17:09
  use
• 17:09
  euphemisms
• 17:10
  in
• 17:11
  the
• 17:11
  commercial
• 17:11
  to
• 17:12
  describe
• 17:13
  our
• 17:13
  lady
• 17:14
  parts,
• 17:14
  if
• 17:14
  you
• 17:15
  will,
• 17:15
  because
• 17:16
  that
• 17:16
  was
• 17:16
  the
• 17:16
  title
• 17:17
  of
• 17:17
  the
• 17:17
  commercial,
• 17:17
  lady
• 17:18
  parts.
• 17:19
  So
• 17:19
  hoo
• 17:19
  ha,
• 17:20
  cootie,
• 17:21
  cat,
• 17:21
  beaver,
• 17:22
  taco,
• 17:22
  all
• 17:22
  the
• 17:22
  things.
• 17:23
  And
• 17:24
  we're
• 17:25
  like,
• 17:25
  okay,
• 17:25
  this
• 17:25
  should
• 17:25
  be
• 17:26
  safe,
• 17:26
  we
• 17:26
  should
• 17:26
  be
• 17:26
  able
• 17:27
  to
• 17:27
  air
• 17:27
  this
• 17:27
  because
• 17:28
  we
• 17:28
  need
• 17:29
  to
• 17:29
  have
• 17:29
  a
• 17:29
  conversation
• 17:30
  on
• 17:30
  TV
• 17:31
  about
• 17:31
  vaginal
• 17:32
  odor.
• 17:33
  And
• 17:34
  so
• 17:35
  we,
• 17:35
  we
• 17:35
  attempted
• 17:36
  to
• 17:36
  and
• 17:37
  it
• 17:37
  got
• 17:38
  shut
• 17:38
  down
• 17:39
  like
• 17:39
  everywhere.
• 17:41
  So
• 17:41
  here
• 17:42
  we
• 17:42
  had
• 17:42
  paid
• 17:42
  all
• 17:42
  this
• 17:43
  money
• 17:43
  for
• 17:43
  this
• 17:43
  amazing
• 17:44
  campaign.
• 17:44
  And
• 17:45
  by
• 17:45
  the
• 17:45
  way,
• 17:45
  it
• 17:45
  just
• 17:45
  won
• 17:45
  an
• 17:46
  addie.
• 17:46
  We
• 17:46
  found
• 17:46
  out
• 17:47
  yesterday.
• 17:47
  Congratulations.
• 17:48
  Thank
• 17:49
  you.
• 17:51
  Our
• 17:52
  Commercial
• 17:52
  along
• 17:52
  with
• 17:52
  the
• 17:52
  dude
• 17:53
  wipes
• 17:53
  commercial
• 17:54
  from
• 17:54
  this
• 17:54
  agency.
• 17:55
  So
• 17:55
  we're
• 17:55
  super
• 17:55
  proud
• 17:56
  of
• 17:56
  it.
• 17:57
  So
• 17:57
  we
• 17:57
  had
• 17:57
  to,
• 17:58
  we
• 17:59
  had
• 17:59
  to
• 17:59
  pivot
• 18:00
  and
• 18:00
  we
• 18:01
  went
• 18:02
  to
• 18:03
  sponsor
• 18:03
  to
• 18:04
  put
• 18:04
  in
• 18:05
  commercial
• 18:05
  in
• 18:05
  Oprah's
• 18:06
  menopause
• 18:07
  special
• 18:07
  a
• 18:08
  couple
• 18:08
  months
• 18:08
  ago.
• 18:09
  And
• 18:10
  we
• 18:10
  whittled
• 18:11
  the
• 18:11
  commercial
• 18:12
  down
• 18:12
  and
• 18:12
  took,
• 18:12
  we
• 18:13
  had
• 18:13
  to
• 18:13
  take
• 18:13
  the
• 18:14
  supers,
• 18:14
  which
• 18:14
  are
• 18:14
  the
• 18:14
  words
• 18:15
  on
• 18:15
  the
• 18:15
  screen
• 18:15
  off
• 18:16
  that,
• 18:16
  that
• 18:16
  say
• 18:17
  beaver
• 18:17
  or
• 18:18
  taco.
• 18:18
  They
• 18:18
  wouldn't
• 18:18
  allow
• 18:19
  that
• 18:20
  because
• 18:20
  I
• 18:20
  guess
• 18:21
  it's
• 18:21
  one
• 18:21
  thing
• 18:21
  if
• 18:21
  you're
• 18:23
  just
• 18:23
  saying
• 18:23
  them,
• 18:24
  but
• 18:24
  if
• 18:24
  you're
• 18:24
  reading
• 18:24
  them,
• 18:24
  it's
• 18:25
  different.
• 18:25
  I
• 18:25
  don't
• 18:25
  know.
• 18:26
  But
• 18:26
  we
• 18:27
  had
• 18:27
  to
• 18:27
  completely
• 18:28
  edit
• 18:28
  the
• 18:28
  commercial,
• 18:29
  shorten
• 18:29
  it,
• 18:30
  edit
• 18:31
  the
• 18:31
  text,
• 18:33
  the
• 18:33
  verbiage,
• 18:33
  everything,
• 18:34
  in
• 18:34
  order
• 18:34
  to
• 18:35
  get
• 18:35
  it
• 18:35
  past
• 18:38
  the
• 18:38
  folks
• 18:38
  at
• 18:39
  the
• 18:39
  networks
• 18:39
  who
• 18:40
  were.
• 18:40
  So
• 18:41
  it's
• 18:41
  been
• 18:41
  incredibly
• 18:42
  frustrating.
• 18:42
  And
• 18:43
  an
• 18:43
  instance
• 18:43
  that
• 18:43
  we
• 18:44
  had
• 18:44
  actually
• 18:44
  here
• 18:45
  in
• 18:45
  LA
• 18:46
  last
• 18:46
  year,
• 18:47
  they
• 18:48
  were
• 18:48
  highlighting
• 18:48
  women
• 18:49
  owned
• 18:49
  brands
• 18:49
  on
• 18:51
  a
• 18:51
  local
• 18:52
  station.
• 18:54
  So
• 18:55
  our
• 18:55
  product
• 18:55
  was
• 18:55
  right
• 18:56
  next
• 18:56
  to
• 18:56
  Kate
• 18:57
  Somerville
• 18:58
  Cosmetics
• 18:59
  and
• 19:00
  it
• 19:01
  was
• 19:01
  our
• 19:02
  vaginal
• 19:02
  moisturizing
• 19:03
  gel.
• 19:04
  That's
• 19:04
  the
• 19:04
  name
• 19:04
  of
• 19:05
  the
• 19:05
  product.
• 19:05
  Ph.D.
• 19:06
  vaginal
• 19:06
  moisturizing
• 19:07
  gel.
• 19:07
  And
• 19:08
  the
• 19:08
  producers
• 19:08
  came
• 19:09
  on,
• 19:09
  you
• 19:09
  know,
• 19:10
  minutes
• 19:10
  before
• 19:11
  it
• 19:11
  was
• 19:11
  going
• 19:11
  to
• 19:11
  air
• 19:12
  and
• 19:12
  they
• 19:12
  told
• 19:12
  me,
• 19:12
  the
• 19:13
  hosts
• 19:13
  are
• 19:13
  like,
• 19:14
  you
• 19:14
  can't
• 19:14
  see
• 19:15
  the
• 19:15
  name
• 19:15
  of
• 19:15
  that
• 19:15
  product
• 19:15
  on
• 19:16
  air.
• 19:16
  And
• 19:17
  they're
• 19:17
  like,
• 19:17
  what
• 19:17
  do
• 19:17
  you
• 19:18
  mean?
• 19:18
  Like
• 19:19
  it's
• 19:19
  the
• 19:19
  name
• 19:19
  of
• 19:20
  the
• 19:20
  product,
• 19:20
  right?
• 19:21
  And
• 19:21
  like,
• 19:21
  sorry.
• 19:23
  Cause
• 19:23
  it
• 19:23
  said
• 19:23
  vaginal.
• 19:26
  So
• 19:27
  they,
• 19:29
  it
• 19:29
  was
• 19:29
  kind
• 19:29
  of
• 19:29
  ridiculous.
• 19:30
  When
• 19:30
  you
• 19:30
  see
• 19:30
  the
• 19:30
  clip,
• 19:32
  they
• 19:32
  couldn't
• 19:32
  even
• 19:33
  zoom
• 19:33
  in
• 19:33
  on
• 19:34
  the
• 19:34
  product.
• 19:35
  So
• 19:37
  the
• 19:37
  host
• 19:37
  blessed
• 19:38
  them.
• 19:38
  They
• 19:39
  were
• 19:39
  like,
• 19:39
  well,
• 19:39
  here's
• 19:40
  a
• 19:40
  product.
• 19:40
  And
• 19:40
  if,
• 19:41
  you
• 19:41
  know,
• 19:41
  you
• 19:41
  know,
• 19:42
  and
• 19:42
  I'm
• 19:42
  like,
• 19:42
  no,
• 19:43
  you
• 19:43
  don't
• 19:43
  know.
• 19:43
  We
• 19:43
  got
• 19:44
  to
• 19:44
  talk
• 19:44
  about
• 19:44
  these
• 19:45
  things.
• 19:46
  So,
• 19:46
  yes,
• 19:46
  it's
• 19:46
  something
• 19:47
  we
• 19:47
  continually
• 19:48
  face.
• 19:49
  And
• 19:50
  it's
• 19:50
  my
• 19:50
  understanding
• 19:51
  that
• 19:51
  the
• 19:51
  word
• 19:52
  menopause
• 19:53
  was
• 19:53
  only
• 19:54
  able
• 19:54
  to
• 19:54
  be
• 19:54
  used
• 19:55
  like
• 19:55
  on
• 19:56
  meta
• 19:56
  and
• 19:56
  everything
• 19:57
  else
• 19:57
  until
• 19:58
  it
• 19:58
  was
• 19:58
  just
• 19:58
  recently,
• 19:59
  like
• 19:59
  two
• 19:59
  or
• 19:59
  three
• 19:59
  years
• 20:00
  ago.
• 20:00
  Which
• 20:01
  is
• 20:01
  insane.
• 20:02
  So
• 20:03
  we
• 20:03
  still
• 20:03
  have
• 20:03
  a
• 20:04
  long
• 20:04
  way
• 20:04
  to
• 20:04
  go.
• 20:05
  Very,
• 20:05
  very
• 20:06
  long
• 20:06
  way
• 20:06
  to
• 20:06
  go.
• 20:06
  So
• 20:07
  vagina
• 20:07
  is
• 20:07
  a
• 20:07
  bad
• 20:08
  word.
• 20:08
  Menopause
• 20:09
  is
• 20:09
  a
• 20:09
  bad
• 20:09
  word.
• 20:09
  I
• 20:10
  mean,
• 20:10
  this
• 20:10
  is
• 20:11
  crazy.
• 20:11
  And
• 20:11
  every
• 20:12
  man
• 20:12
  came
• 20:12
  from
• 20:12
  a
• 20:12
  vagina.
• 20:14
  In
• 20:15
  some
• 20:15
  form
• 20:15
  or
• 20:15
  fashion,
• 20:16
  you
• 20:16
  know,
• 20:17
  and
• 20:18
  every
• 20:18
  biological
• 20:19
  woman
• 20:19
  will
• 20:19
  go
• 20:20
  through
• 20:20
  menopause
• 20:21
  at
• 20:21
  some
• 20:21
  point,
• 20:22
  you
• 20:22
  know,
• 20:22
  and
• 20:22
  it's,
• 20:22
  it's.
• 20:23
  If
• 20:23
  she's
• 20:23
  lucky
• 20:23
  enough
• 20:23
  to
• 20:24
  live
• 20:24
  that
• 20:24
  long.
• 20:24
  Right?
• 20:25
  And
• 20:25
  it
• 20:25
  just,
• 20:26
  it's
• 20:26
  baffling
• 20:27
  to
• 20:27
  me
• 20:27
  that
• 20:28
  it's
• 20:28
  such
• 20:28
  a
• 20:28
  bad
• 20:29
  word
• 20:29
  still.
• 20:30
  I
• 20:30
  know,
• 20:30
  right?
• 20:31
  And
• 20:31
  we,
• 20:31
  especially
• 20:32
  if
• 20:32
  you
• 20:32
  think
• 20:32
  about
• 20:32
  it,
• 20:32
  we
• 20:33
  spend
• 20:33
  a
• 20:33
  third
• 20:33
  of
• 20:34
  our
• 20:34
  lives
• 20:34
  in
• 20:34
  menopause.
• 20:35
  A
• 20:36
  third
• 20:37
  and
• 20:37
  you
• 20:38
  know,
• 20:38
  I
• 20:38
  watched
• 20:39
  my
• 20:39
  mom
• 20:40
  suffer.
• 20:41
  I
• 20:41
  don't
• 20:41
  know
• 20:41
  if
• 20:41
  yours
• 20:42
  did
• 20:42
  the
• 20:42
  same,
• 20:42
  but
• 20:43
  it
• 20:43
  was
• 20:43
  just
• 20:44
  like
• 20:44
  she
• 20:45
  suffered
• 20:45
  because
• 20:46
  there
• 20:46
  weren't
• 20:46
  really
• 20:46
  many
• 20:47
  alternatives
• 20:48
  out
• 20:48
  there.
• 20:49
  And
• 20:49
  I,
• 20:50
  as
• 20:50
  a
• 20:51
  founder,
• 20:51
  I
• 20:52
  had
• 20:52
  the
• 20:52
  ability
• 20:53
  to
• 20:53
  help
• 20:54
  improve
• 20:55
  the
• 20:55
  lives
• 20:55
  of
• 20:55
  women,
• 20:56
  particularly
• 20:57
  those
• 20:57
  women
• 20:57
  going
• 20:57
  through
• 20:57
  menopause,
• 20:58
  because
• 20:58
  no
• 20:58
  women
• 20:59
  should
• 20:59
  have.
• 20:59
  No
• 21:00
  woman
• 21:00
  should
• 21:00
  have
• 21:00
  to
• 21:00
  suffer
• 21:01
  through
• 21:01
  a
• 21:01
  third
• 21:01
  of
• 21:01
  their
• 21:02
  life
• 21:02
  and
• 21:02
  anything.
• 21:04
  So
• 21:04
  it's.
• 21:05
  That's
• 21:05
  been
• 21:05
  a
• 21:06
  huge
• 21:06
  part
• 21:06
  of
• 21:06
  our
• 21:06
  mission,
• 21:06
  too.
• 21:07
  I
• 21:07
  think
• 21:08
  that
• 21:08
  that's
• 21:08
  one
• 21:08
  of
• 21:08
  the.
• 21:09
  The
• 21:09
  things
• 21:09
  that
• 21:09
  people
• 21:09
  don't
• 21:10
  realize
• 21:10
  is
• 21:10
  menopause
• 21:11
  is
• 21:11
  not
• 21:11
  a
• 21:12
  transitional
• 21:12
  period.
• 21:13
  Once
• 21:13
  you
• 21:13
  hit
• 21:13
  menopause,
• 21:14
  you're
• 21:14
  in
• 21:15
  menopause
• 21:15
  for
• 21:15
  the
• 21:15
  rest
• 21:15
  of
• 21:16
  your
• 21:16
  life.
• 21:16
  You
• 21:16
  are.
• 21:18
  There's
• 21:18
  no,
• 21:18
  like,
• 21:19
  turning
• 21:19
  back.
• 21:19
  You
• 21:19
  don't
• 21:20
  just
• 21:20
  get
• 21:20
  to
• 21:20
  leave
• 21:20
  menopause,
• 21:21
  you
• 21:21
  know,
• 21:23
  and
• 21:23
  so
• 21:23
  I.
• 21:24
  I,
• 21:24
  like,
• 21:24
  really
• 21:25
  want
• 21:25
  people
• 21:25
  to
• 21:26
  know
• 21:26
  that
• 21:26
  that
• 21:27
  is
• 21:27
  like
• 21:27
  the.
• 21:27
  That's
• 21:28
  the.
• 21:28
  It's
• 21:28
  a
• 21:28
  part
• 21:28
  of
• 21:29
  life.
• 21:29
  Like,
• 21:29
  once
• 21:30
  it
• 21:30
  starts,
• 21:30
  you're
• 21:31
  in
• 21:31
  menopause.
• 21:31
  Yeah.
• 21:32
  So
• 21:32
  having
• 21:32
  products
• 21:33
  like
• 21:33
  your
• 21:34
  products
• 21:35
  can
• 21:35
  be
• 21:35
  so
• 21:35
  helpful
• 21:36
  for
• 21:37
  not
• 21:37
  only
• 21:37
  people
• 21:37
  in
• 21:38
  menopause,
• 21:38
  but
• 21:38
  before,
• 21:39
  you
• 21:39
  know.
• 21:39
  Totally.
• 21:40
  And,
• 21:40
  you
• 21:40
  know,
• 21:41
  I
• 21:41
  think
• 21:41
  too,
• 21:41
  you
• 21:41
  know,
• 21:42
  there's
• 21:42
  hormonal
• 21:43
  changes
• 21:43
  that
• 21:43
  happen.
• 21:43
  Your
• 21:44
  hormones
• 21:44
  go
• 21:44
  everywhere.
• 21:46
  Like,
• 21:46
  how
• 21:46
  does
• 21:47
  that
• 21:47
  affect.
• 21:48
  Especially
• 21:48
  when
• 21:48
  we're
• 21:49
  in
• 21:49
  midlife.
• 21:49
  Right.
• 21:49
  I
• 21:50
  mean,
• 21:50
  our
• 21:50
  hormones
• 21:50
  are
• 21:50
  constantly
• 21:51
  in
• 21:51
  flux.
• 21:52
  Yes.
• 21:52
  How
• 21:53
  does
• 21:53
  that
• 21:53
  affect.
• 21:54
  Affect
• 21:55
  your
• 21:56
  vaginal
• 21:56
  health?
• 21:56
  Yeah.
• 21:57
  Oh,
• 21:57
  my
• 21:57
  goodness.
• 21:58
  It's
• 22:00
  very
• 22:00
  affected
• 22:01
  by
• 22:01
  your
• 22:01
  hormonal
• 22:02
  fluctuations.
• 22:03
  So
• 22:04
  many,
• 22:04
  many
• 22:04
  women,
• 22:05
  millions
• 22:05
  of
• 22:05
  women
• 22:06
  will
• 22:06
  all
• 22:07
  of
• 22:07
  a
• 22:07
  sudden
• 22:08
  get
• 22:08
  vaginal
• 22:08
  odor
• 22:09
  for
• 22:09
  the
• 22:09
  first
• 22:09
  time,
• 22:09
  even
• 22:09
  though
• 22:09
  they've
• 22:10
  never
• 22:10
  had
• 22:10
  it.
• 22:11
  I
• 22:11
  was
• 22:11
  actually
• 22:12
  fortunate
• 22:13
  enough
• 22:13
  to
• 22:13
  have
• 22:14
  brunch
• 22:15
  with
• 22:15
  an
• 22:16
  old
• 22:16
  friend
• 22:16
  from
• 22:16
  high
• 22:16
  school
• 22:17
  today,
• 22:17
  and
• 22:18
  we
• 22:18
  were
• 22:19
  talking
• 22:19
  about
• 22:19
  that,
• 22:19
  and
• 22:19
  she
• 22:20
  was
• 22:20
  like,
• 22:21
  all
• 22:21
  of
• 22:21
  a
• 22:21
  sudden,
• 22:22
  I
• 22:22
  woke
• 22:22
  up
• 22:22
  one
• 22:22
  day
• 22:22
  and
• 22:22
  I
• 22:23
  thought
• 22:23
  something
• 22:23
  had
• 22:23
  crawled
• 22:23
  up
• 22:24
  inside
• 22:24
  of
• 22:24
  me
• 22:24
  and
• 22:24
  died.
• 22:26
  And
• 22:27
  I'm
• 22:27
  like,
• 22:27
  yes,
• 22:28
  I
• 22:28
  know.
• 22:29
  And
• 22:30
  so.
• 22:31
  And
• 22:32
  then
• 22:32
  again,
• 22:32
  look
• 22:33
  what
• 22:33
  happens.
• 22:34
  We
• 22:35
  take
• 22:35
  that
• 22:35
  inwardly.
• 22:36
  We're
• 22:36
  like,
• 22:36
  what
• 22:36
  have
• 22:37
  I
• 22:37
  done
• 22:37
  wrong?
• 22:38
  It
• 22:38
  must
• 22:38
  be
• 22:38
  something
• 22:39
  that
• 22:39
  I've
• 22:39
  done.
• 22:40
  And
• 22:40
  it's
• 22:41
  not
• 22:41
  a
• 22:41
  hygiene
• 22:42
  issue.
• 22:42
  You
• 22:42
  can,
• 22:42
  you
• 22:43
  know,
• 22:43
  scrub
• 22:44
  yourself
• 22:45
  to
• 22:45
  death,
• 22:45
  and
• 22:45
  that's
• 22:45
  not
• 22:45
  going
• 22:46
  to
• 22:46
  help.
• 22:46
  But
• 22:47
  a
• 22:47
  lot
• 22:47
  of
• 22:47
  times,
• 22:48
  because
• 22:48
  of
• 22:48
  these
• 22:48
  hormone
• 22:48
  fluctuations,
• 22:51
  estrogen's
• 22:52
  up
• 22:52
  and
• 22:52
  down,
• 22:53
  up
• 22:53
  and
• 22:53
  down,
• 22:53
  and
• 22:54
  testosterone,
• 22:55
  and
• 22:55
  it
• 22:55
  can
• 22:55
  cause
• 22:56
  an
• 22:56
  overgrowth
• 22:57
  of
• 22:57
  bacteria,
• 22:58
  which
• 22:58
  then
• 22:59
  causes
• 22:59
  odor.
• 23:00
  So
• 23:00
  it's
• 23:01
  nothing
• 23:02
  that
• 23:03
  women
• 23:03
  do.
• 23:03
  It's
• 23:04
  not
• 23:04
  their
• 23:04
  fault.
• 23:05
  But
• 23:05
  in
• 23:05
  addition
• 23:05
  to
• 23:05
  that,
• 23:07
  the
• 23:08
  vaginal
• 23:08
  dryness,
• 23:09
  of
• 23:09
  course,
• 23:09
  that
• 23:09
  occurs.
• 23:10
  And
• 23:12
  not
• 23:12
  only
• 23:12
  that,
• 23:12
  but
• 23:13
  also
• 23:13
  our.
• 23:13
  Our.
• 23:14
  Like,
• 23:14
  my
• 23:14
  skin
• 23:15
  has
• 23:15
  changed
• 23:15
  dramatically.
• 23:16
  I
• 23:16
  have
• 23:17
  much
• 23:17
  drier
• 23:18
  skin
• 23:18
  now
• 23:18
  that
• 23:18
  I'm
• 23:19
  in
• 23:19
  menopause
• 23:20
  and
• 23:21
  our
• 23:21
  labial
• 23:22
  skin
• 23:23
  gets
• 23:23
  really
• 23:23
  dry
• 23:24
  and
• 23:24
  can
• 23:24
  become
• 23:25
  really
• 23:25
  irritated,
• 23:25
  particularly
• 23:26
  if
• 23:27
  because
• 23:27
  we
• 23:28
  now
• 23:28
  have
• 23:28
  incontinence,
• 23:29
  you
• 23:29
  know,
• 23:29
  and
• 23:30
  some
• 23:30
  women
• 23:30
  are
• 23:30
  wearing
• 23:30
  liners
• 23:31
  and
• 23:32
  the
• 23:32
  liners
• 23:32
  can
• 23:33
  rub,
• 23:33
  especially
• 23:34
  if
• 23:34
  your
• 23:34
  skin
• 23:34
  is
• 23:34
  dry.
• 23:35
  So
• 23:35
  there
• 23:36
  are
• 23:36
  so
• 23:36
  many
• 23:37
  different
• 23:37
  things,
• 23:38
  things
• 23:38
  that
• 23:38
  are
• 23:38
  happening
• 23:39
  to
• 23:39
  our
• 23:39
  bodies,
• 23:41
  not
• 23:41
  to
• 23:41
  mention,
• 23:42
  you
• 23:42
  know,
• 23:42
  the
• 23:43
  night
• 23:43
  sweats
• 23:44
  and
• 23:45
  the
• 23:45
  joint
• 23:45
  pain,
• 23:46
  the
• 23:46
  frozen
• 23:46
  shoulder.
• 23:47
  I
• 23:47
  mean
• 23:47
  there's
• 23:47
  so
• 23:48
  many
• 23:48
  different
• 23:48
  brain
• 23:48
  fog.
• 23:49
  Like
• 23:49
  you
• 23:49
  walk
• 23:49
  into
• 23:50
  a
• 23:50
  room
• 23:50
  and
• 23:51
  forget
• 23:51
  why
• 23:51
  you
• 23:52
  went
• 23:52
  in
• 23:52
  there.
• 23:52
  Yes.
• 23:52
  Or
• 23:53
  you
• 23:53
  can't
• 23:53
  remember
• 23:53
  what
• 23:54
  you
• 23:54
  were
• 23:54
  about
• 23:54
  to
• 23:54
  say
• 23:55
  even
• 23:55
  you're
• 23:55
  like,
• 23:56
  yes,
• 23:56
  grabbing
• 23:56
  for
• 23:57
  words.
• 23:57
  And
• 23:57
  I'm
• 23:57
  like,
• 23:58
  what
• 23:58
  was
• 23:58
  I
• 23:58
  just
• 23:58
  about?
• 23:59
  What
• 23:59
  was
• 23:59
  I
• 24:00
  a
• 24:00
  thing?
• 24:00
  Like,
• 24:01
  it
• 24:01
  is,
• 24:02
  it's
• 24:02
  a
• 24:02
  thing.
• 24:04
  So
• 24:04
  we're
• 24:05
  really
• 24:05
  focusing
• 24:06
  on
• 24:08
  being
• 24:09
  that
• 24:09
  brand
• 24:09
  that
• 24:09
  provides
• 24:10
  solutions
• 24:10
  for
• 24:11
  every
• 24:11
  stage
• 24:12
  of
• 24:12
  a
• 24:12
  woman's
• 24:12
  life.
• 24:12
  And
• 24:13
  because
• 24:13
  there's
• 24:13
  so
• 24:13
  many
• 24:14
  needs
• 24:15
  in
• 24:15
  menopause,
• 24:17
  we've
• 24:17
  really
• 24:17
  focused
• 24:18
  a
• 24:18
  lot
• 24:18
  on
• 24:18
  that
• 24:18
  because
• 24:19
  we
• 24:19
  are.
• 24:20
  Science
• 24:21
  is
• 24:21
  at
• 24:21
  the
• 24:21
  heart
• 24:21
  of
• 24:21
  everything
• 24:22
  we
• 24:22
  do.
• 24:22
  So
• 24:22
  I
• 24:22
  want
• 24:22
  to
• 24:22
  make
• 24:23
  sure
• 24:23
  that
• 24:23
  we're
• 24:23
  including
• 24:23
  those
• 24:24
  science
• 24:24
  backed
• 24:25
  ingredients.
• 24:25
  And
• 24:26
  so
• 24:26
  with
• 24:26
  our
• 24:26
  vaginal
• 24:27
  moisturizing
• 24:27
  gel,
• 24:28
  it
• 24:28
  has
• 24:28
  hyaluronic
• 24:29
  acid,
• 24:29
  acid
• 24:29
  which
• 24:30
  is
• 24:30
  fabulous.
• 24:32
  Vitamin
• 24:32
  E
• 24:32
  and
• 24:33
  coconut
• 24:33
  oil.
• 24:33
  I
• 24:33
  had
• 24:33
  a
• 24:34
  friend,
• 24:35
  close
• 24:36
  friend,
• 24:36
  who
• 24:37
  experiences
• 24:38
  severe
• 24:38
  vaginal
• 24:39
  dryness
• 24:39
  and
• 24:40
  when
• 24:40
  she
• 24:40
  would
• 24:40
  go
• 24:41
  get
• 24:41
  her
• 24:41
  pap
• 24:41
  smear,
• 24:42
  she
• 24:43
  wanted
• 24:43
  to
• 24:43
  die
• 24:44
  because
• 24:44
  it
• 24:44
  hurts
• 24:44
  so
• 24:45
  bad.
• 24:46
  And
• 24:47
  so
• 24:47
  she
• 24:47
  started
• 24:48
  using,
• 24:49
  I
• 24:49
  didn't
• 24:49
  mean
• 24:49
  for
• 24:49
  this
• 24:49
  to
• 24:50
  be
• 24:50
  a
• 24:50
  commercial,
• 24:50
  but
• 24:50
  actually
• 24:52
  she
• 24:52
  started
• 24:53
  using
• 24:53
  her
• 24:53
  vaginal
• 24:54
  moisturizing
• 24:54
  gel
• 24:54
  and,
• 24:55
  and
• 24:55
  she
• 24:55
  was
• 24:55
  like,
• 24:56
  I
• 24:57
  got
• 24:57
  there,
• 24:58
  spread
• 24:58
  my
• 24:58
  legs
• 24:59
  and
• 24:59
  was
• 24:59
  talking
• 24:59
  to
• 25:00
  the
• 25:00
  doctor
• 25:00
  and
• 25:00
  she's
• 25:00
  like,
• 25:00
  okay,
• 25:01
  I'm
• 25:01
  done.
• 25:01
  She's
• 25:01
  like,
• 25:01
  what?
• 25:02
  I
• 25:02
  didn't
• 25:02
  even
• 25:02
  know
• 25:03
  you
• 25:03
  did
• 25:03
  anything.
• 25:04
  So.
• 25:04
  But
• 25:05
  these
• 25:05
  are
• 25:05
  things
• 25:06
  that
• 25:06
  we
• 25:06
  need
• 25:07
  to
• 25:07
  know
• 25:07
  about,
• 25:07
  like
• 25:08
  these
• 25:08
  products
• 25:09
  can
• 25:09
  actually
• 25:09
  help
• 25:10
  you.
• 25:10
  And
• 25:10
  I'm
• 25:10
  so
• 25:11
  grateful
• 25:11
  that
• 25:11
  we're
• 25:11
  not
• 25:12
  alone
• 25:12
  in
• 25:12
  this.
• 25:12
  And
• 25:12
  there's
• 25:12
  so
• 25:13
  many
• 25:13
  other
• 25:13
  brands
• 25:14
  leaning
• 25:14
  into
• 25:14
  menopause
• 25:15
  solutions,
• 25:17
  you
• 25:17
  know,
• 25:17
  with
• 25:18
  products
• 25:19
  for
• 25:19
  our
• 25:19
  vulva,
• 25:19
  like
• 25:19
  our
• 25:20
  vulva
• 25:20
  bomb
• 25:20
  that
• 25:20
  we
• 25:21
  have
• 25:21
  and
• 25:22
  you
• 25:23
  know,
• 25:24
  moisturizing
• 25:25
  products
• 25:25
  and
• 25:26
  you
• 25:26
  know,
• 25:27
  supplements
• 25:27
  too
• 25:28
  that
• 25:28
  can
• 25:28
  help
• 25:28
  with
• 25:28
  those
• 25:29
  night
• 25:29
  sweats
• 25:30
  and.
• 25:30
  But
• 25:30
  the
• 25:31
  really
• 25:31
  thing
• 25:31
  is
• 25:31
  to
• 25:31
  have
• 25:31
  a
• 25:32
  conversation
• 25:32
  and
• 25:32
  start
• 25:33
  doing
• 25:33
  your
• 25:33
  research.
• 25:34
  And
• 25:36
  I
• 25:36
  really,
• 25:37
  you
• 25:37
  know,
• 25:37
  strongly
• 25:38
  suggest
• 25:38
  to
• 25:39
  women,
• 25:39
  I
• 25:39
  have
• 25:39
  these
• 25:39
  conversations
• 25:40
  all
• 25:40
  the
• 25:40
  time,
• 25:41
  that
• 25:41
  if
• 25:42
  your
• 25:42
  healthcare
• 25:42
  provider
• 25:43
  is
• 25:43
  not
• 25:43
  listening
• 25:43
  to
• 25:43
  you,
• 25:44
  go
• 25:44
  find
• 25:44
  another
• 25:45
  one.
• 25:46
  The
• 25:47
  statistics
• 25:47
  are
• 25:49
  just
• 25:49
  incredible.
• 25:50
  I
• 25:50
  think
• 25:50
  it's
• 25:50
  83%
• 25:51
  of
• 25:51
  women
• 25:52
  who
• 25:52
  were
• 25:53
  in
• 25:53
  menopause
• 25:54
  visit
• 25:54
  their
• 25:54
  doctor
• 25:55
  and
• 25:55
  feel
• 25:55
  like
• 25:55
  they're
• 25:55
  not
• 25:56
  heard
• 25:56
  right.
• 25:57
  And
• 25:57
  they're
• 25:57
  gaslit,
• 25:58
  you
• 25:58
  know,
• 25:58
  by
• 25:58
  the
• 25:58
  doctor.
• 25:59
  They're
• 25:59
  just
• 26:00
  sort
• 26:00
  of
• 26:00
  blown
• 26:00
  off
• 26:01
  or
• 26:01
  like,
• 26:02
  you
• 26:02
  know,
• 26:02
  and
• 26:02
  it's
• 26:02
  such
• 26:03
  a
• 26:03
  shame
• 26:03
  because
• 26:03
  these
• 26:04
  are
• 26:04
  real
• 26:04
  problems
• 26:05
  that
• 26:05
  these
• 26:05
  women
• 26:05
  are
• 26:05
  having,
• 26:06
  you
• 26:06
  know,
• 26:06
  and
• 26:07
  to
• 26:07
  not
• 26:07
  feel
• 26:08
  like
• 26:08
  your
• 26:08
  doctor's
• 26:09
  listening
• 26:09
  to
• 26:09
  you
• 26:09
  or
• 26:09
  to
• 26:09
  not
• 26:10
  even
• 26:10
  feel
• 26:10
  comfortable
• 26:10
  enough
• 26:11
  to
• 26:11
  tell
• 26:11
  your
• 26:11
  doctor
• 26:12
  is
• 26:13
  another
• 26:13
  issue
• 26:14
  that
• 26:14
  I've
• 26:14
  been
• 26:14
  hearing
• 26:14
  about,
• 26:15
  you
• 26:15
  know,
• 26:16
  so
• 26:16
  true.
• 26:17
  And
• 26:18
  so
• 26:19
  be
• 26:19
  the
• 26:19
  advocate
• 26:20
  for
• 26:20
  yourself.
• 26:20
  Find
• 26:21
  somebody
• 26:21
  who
• 26:21
  will
• 26:22
  listen
• 26:22
  to
• 26:22
  you.
• 26:22
  And
• 26:22
  that
• 26:23
  was
• 26:23
  the
• 26:23
  conversation
• 26:23
  I
• 26:23
  just
• 26:24
  had
• 26:24
  with
• 26:24
  my
• 26:24
  friend.
• 26:24
  She
• 26:25
  finally
• 26:25
  found
• 26:26
  somebody
• 26:27
  and
• 26:27
  now
• 26:28
  she's
• 26:28
  on
• 26:28
  hrt.
• 26:28
  She's
• 26:29
  been
• 26:29
  on
• 26:29
  it
• 26:29
  two
• 26:29
  weeks
• 26:29
  and
• 26:30
  feels
• 26:30
  like
• 26:30
  a
• 26:30
  completely
• 26:31
  different
• 26:31
  person.
• 26:32
  Completely
• 26:32
  different
• 26:33
  person.
• 26:34
  So
• 26:34
  we're
• 26:35
  raised,
• 26:36
  I
• 26:36
  feel
• 26:36
  like,
• 26:36
  to
• 26:37
  believe
• 26:37
  that
• 26:37
  because
• 26:38
  you're
• 26:39
  a
• 26:39
  healthcare
• 26:39
  provider
• 26:40
  and
• 26:40
  you're
• 26:40
  telling
• 26:40
  me
• 26:40
  this
• 26:41
  information
• 26:41
  that
• 26:42
  you
• 26:42
  have
• 26:42
  to
• 26:42
  be
• 26:42
  correct.
• 26:43
  Well,
• 26:43
  that's
• 26:43
  not
• 26:43
  always
• 26:44
  the
• 26:44
  case.
• 26:45
  You
• 26:45
  have
• 26:45
  to
• 26:45
  be
• 26:45
  an
• 26:45
  advocate
• 26:47
  for
• 26:47
  your
• 26:47
  own
• 26:48
  health
• 26:49
  as
• 26:49
  well
• 26:49
  as
• 26:50
  the
• 26:50
  members
• 26:50
  of
• 26:50
  your
• 26:50
  family
• 26:51
  too.
• 26:51
  It's
• 26:51
  so
• 26:52
  important,
• 26:52
  very
• 26:53
  important.
• 26:53
  Now,
• 26:54
  I
• 26:54
  know
• 26:54
  there's
• 26:54
  a
• 26:54
  lot
• 26:55
  of
• 26:55
  confusion
• 26:55
  too
• 26:56
  about
• 26:57
  specific
• 26:58
  vaginal
• 26:58
  infections,
• 26:59
  like
• 26:59
  for
• 27:00
  example,
• 27:00
  a
• 27:00
  yeast
• 27:00
  infection
• 27:01
  or
• 27:01
  bv
• 27:02
  or
• 27:03
  just
• 27:03
  feeling
• 27:03
  off
• 27:04
  down
• 27:04
  there.
• 27:04
  Can
• 27:05
  you
• 27:05
  sort
• 27:05
  of
• 27:05
  clear
• 27:05
  up
• 27:06
  and
• 27:06
  like
• 27:06
  let
• 27:07
  women
• 27:07
  know
• 27:07
  what
• 27:07
  the
• 27:07
  difference
• 27:08
  is?
• 27:08
  Because
• 27:08
  I
• 27:08
  do
• 27:08
  think
• 27:09
  there's
• 27:09
  also
• 27:10
  shame.
• 27:10
  Shame
• 27:10
  and
• 27:10
  not
• 27:11
  knowing
• 27:11
  what's
• 27:11
  going
• 27:11
  on,
• 27:11
  but
• 27:12
  also
• 27:12
  using
• 27:13
  the
• 27:13
  wrong
• 27:14
  product
• 27:14
  if
• 27:14
  you're
• 27:15
  not
• 27:15
  100%
• 27:16
  sure
• 27:17
  of
• 27:17
  what's
• 27:17
  happening.
• 27:17
  So
• 27:18
  can
• 27:18
  you
• 27:18
  kind
• 27:18
  of
• 27:18
  differentiate
• 27:19
  between
• 27:19
  those
• 27:19
  three
• 27:20
  things?
• 27:20
  Yeah,
• 27:20
  so
• 27:21
  mind
• 27:21
  you,
• 27:21
  I'm
• 27:21
  not
• 27:21
  a
• 27:22
  medical
• 27:22
  doctor
• 27:22
  and
• 27:23
  the
• 27:23
  first
• 27:24
  thing
• 27:24
  we
• 27:24
  tell
• 27:24
  consumers
• 27:25
  is
• 27:25
  consult
• 27:25
  your
• 27:26
  doctor
• 27:26
  if
• 27:26
  you
• 27:27
  are
• 27:27
  facing
• 27:28
  any
• 27:28
  of
• 27:28
  these
• 27:28
  things.
• 27:30
  So
• 27:31
  yeast
• 27:31
  infection
• 27:32
  typically
• 27:34
  has
• 27:34
  that
• 27:35
  discharge
• 27:36
  that's
• 27:36
  pretty
• 27:36
  noticeable,
• 27:38
  that's
• 27:39
  kind
• 27:39
  of
• 27:39
  a
• 27:40
  milkish
• 27:41
  whitish
• 27:41
  discharge.
• 27:42
  And
• 27:43
  the
• 27:43
  itch
• 27:43
  is
• 27:44
  usually
• 27:45
  oftentimes
• 27:46
  unbearable.
• 27:47
  And
• 27:48
  it
• 27:48
  can
• 27:48
  also
• 27:48
  be
• 27:49
  internal
• 27:50
  and
• 27:50
  external
• 27:51
  itching.
• 27:52
  And
• 27:53
  a
• 27:54
  lot
• 27:54
  of
• 27:54
  things
• 27:54
  that
• 27:54
  can
• 27:54
  cause
• 27:55
  a
• 27:55
  yeast
• 27:55
  infection
• 27:55
  are
• 27:56
  antibiotics.
• 27:57
  Of
• 27:57
  course,
• 27:59
  you
• 27:59
  know,
• 27:59
  even
• 27:59
  intercourse.
• 28:01
  Many,
• 28:02
  many
• 28:02
  men
• 28:03
  can
• 28:03
  be
• 28:03
  carriers
• 28:04
  of
• 28:04
  yeast
• 28:04
  on
• 28:04
  their
• 28:05
  penis
• 28:06
  and
• 28:06
  unaware
• 28:06
  because
• 28:07
  they're
• 28:07
  asymptomatic.
• 28:08
  So
• 28:09
  in
• 28:09
  the
• 28:10
  women,
• 28:10
  oftentimes
• 28:11
  that's
• 28:11
  a
• 28:11
  trigger
• 28:11
  for
• 28:12
  them
• 28:12
  is
• 28:12
  intercourse.
• 28:12
  Because
• 28:13
  sometimes,
• 28:14
  not
• 28:14
  always,
• 28:14
  but
• 28:15
  sometimes
• 28:15
  their
• 28:15
  partner
• 28:16
  is
• 28:16
  a
• 28:17
  carrier
• 28:17
  of
• 28:17
  yeast.
• 28:19
  Oftentimes.
• 28:20
  A
• 28:20
  lot
• 28:20
  of
• 28:21
  women
• 28:21
  will
• 28:21
  get
• 28:21
  yeast
• 28:21
  infections
• 28:23
  during
• 28:24
  menstruation
• 28:24
  during
• 28:25
  their
• 28:25
  period
• 28:25
  too.
• 28:27
  So
• 28:28
  it
• 28:28
  is
• 28:28
  important
• 28:29
  to
• 28:29
  see
• 28:29
  a
• 28:29
  doctor
• 28:29
  determine
• 28:30
  which
• 28:31
  is
• 28:31
  which.
• 28:32
  Their
• 28:33
  bacterial
• 28:34
  vaginosis
• 28:35
  is
• 28:35
  caused
• 28:35
  by
• 28:35
  an
• 28:35
  overgrowth
• 28:36
  of
• 28:37
  the
• 28:39
  bacteria
• 28:39
  that's
• 28:39
  not
• 28:39
  beneficial,
• 28:40
  the
• 28:42
  odor
• 28:42
  causing
• 28:42
  bacteria.
• 28:44
  And
• 28:44
  that's
• 28:44
  typically
• 28:46
  a
• 28:47
  grayish
• 28:47
  discharge.
• 28:48
  Sometimes.
• 28:49
  But
• 28:50
  interesting
• 28:51
  stat
• 28:51
  there
• 28:52
  is
• 28:52
  that
• 28:52
  over
• 28:53
  60%
• 28:53
  of
• 28:54
  women
• 28:54
  who
• 28:54
  have
• 28:55
  BV
• 28:55
  don't
• 28:56
  know
• 28:56
  they
• 28:56
  have
• 28:58
  could
• 28:58
  be
• 28:59
  that
• 29:00
  they
• 29:00
  just
• 29:00
  feel
• 29:01
  a
• 29:01
  little
• 29:02
  off.
• 29:02
  And
• 29:03
  sometimes
• 29:04
  I
• 29:04
  think
• 29:04
  as
• 29:04
  women,
• 29:04
  we
• 29:04
  know
• 29:05
  when
• 29:05
  we've
• 29:05
  had
• 29:05
  that
• 29:05
  feeling,
• 29:06
  something's
• 29:06
  just
• 29:06
  not
• 29:07
  quite
• 29:07
  right.
• 29:08
  So,
• 29:08
  and
• 29:09
  a
• 29:09
  lot
• 29:09
  of
• 29:09
  times
• 29:09
  if
• 29:09
  they
• 29:10
  have
• 29:10
  bv,
• 29:11
  it's
• 29:11
  much
• 29:12
  more
• 29:12
  noticeable
• 29:12
  after
• 29:13
  intercourse
• 29:15
  because
• 29:16
  the
• 29:16
  odor
• 29:16
  causing
• 29:17
  bacteria
• 29:17
  that's
• 29:17
  way
• 29:18
  up
• 29:18
  in
• 29:18
  the
• 29:18
  vaginal
• 29:18
  canal
• 29:19
  then
• 29:19
  comes
• 29:20
  out
• 29:20
  and
• 29:20
  you're
• 29:21
  able
• 29:21
  to
• 29:21
  smell
• 29:22
  it.
• 29:24
  A
• 29:24
  lot
• 29:24
  of
• 29:24
  women
• 29:24
  get
• 29:25
  BV
• 29:26
  while
• 29:27
  they're
• 29:27
  menstruating
• 29:29
  because
• 29:30
  or
• 29:31
  after
• 29:31
  intercourse
• 29:32
  because
• 29:32
  semen
• 29:33
  and
• 29:33
  blood
• 29:34
  can
• 29:34
  both
• 29:34
  elevate
• 29:35
  the
• 29:35
  vaginal
• 29:35
  pH,
• 29:36
  which
• 29:37
  then
• 29:37
  causes
• 29:37
  the
• 29:37
  odor
• 29:38
  causing
• 29:38
  bacteria
• 29:39
  to
• 29:39
  grow
• 29:40
  and
• 29:41
  causes
• 29:42
  an
• 29:42
  overgrowth
• 29:43
  of
• 29:43
  that
• 29:43
  and
• 29:43
  not
• 29:44
  the
• 29:44
  good
• 29:44
  bacteria,
• 29:44
  the
• 29:45
  lactobacilli,
• 29:45
  which
• 29:46
  we
• 29:46
  want
• 29:46
  to
• 29:46
  preserve.
• 29:47
  So
• 29:49
  in
• 29:49
  addition,
• 29:50
  there's
• 29:51
  a
• 29:52
  study
• 29:52
  published
• 29:53
  in
• 29:53
  the
• 29:53
  New
• 29:53
  England
• 29:53
  Journal
• 29:54
  of
• 29:54
  Medicine
• 29:54
  recently
• 29:56
  that
• 29:56
  was
• 29:56
  pretty
• 29:57
  profound
• 29:58
  and
• 29:58
  showed
• 29:58
  that
• 29:59
  men
• 30:00
  can
• 30:00
  actually
• 30:00
  be
• 30:01
  carriers
• 30:01
  of
• 30:02
  the
• 30:02
  bacteria
• 30:02
  that
• 30:03
  causes
• 30:03
  bv.
• 30:04
  So
• 30:04
  much
• 30:05
  so
• 30:05
  that
• 30:05
  this
• 30:06
  study
• 30:07
  demonstrated
• 30:07
  that
• 30:07
  by
• 30:08
  treating
• 30:08
  the
• 30:08
  male
• 30:08
  partner,
• 30:10
  the
• 30:10
  incidence
• 30:11
  of
• 30:11
  BV
• 30:12
  went
• 30:12
  down
• 30:12
  significantly.
• 30:15
  So
• 30:15
  that
• 30:16
  also
• 30:16
  opens
• 30:16
  up
• 30:17
  a
• 30:17
  whole
• 30:17
  new,
• 30:18
  you
• 30:18
  know,
• 30:19
  can
• 30:19
  of
• 30:19
  worms,
• 30:19
  if
• 30:19
  you
• 30:20
  will,
• 30:21
  when
• 30:22
  it
• 30:22
  comes
• 30:22
  to
• 30:23
  that.
• 30:23
  I
• 30:24
  mean,
• 30:24
  you
• 30:24
  don't
• 30:24
  have
• 30:25
  to
• 30:25
  be
• 30:25
  sexually
• 30:25
  active
• 30:25
  to
• 30:26
  get
• 30:26
  bacterial
• 30:26
  vaginosis.
• 30:27
  Your,
• 30:27
  you
• 30:28
  know,
• 30:28
  your
• 30:29
  blood
• 30:29
  can
• 30:29
  elevate
• 30:29
  your
• 30:30
  ph
• 30:30
  and
• 30:30
  your
• 30:30
  vagina
• 30:31
  too.
• 30:31
  So,
• 30:31
  you
• 30:32
  know,
• 30:32
  many
• 30:33
  women
• 30:33
  who
• 30:33
  have
• 30:33
  never
• 30:34
  been
• 30:34
  sexually
• 30:34
  active
• 30:35
  will
• 30:35
  get
• 30:36
  bv.
• 30:37
  So
• 30:37
  it
• 30:37
  is,
• 30:39
  it's
• 30:39
  an
• 30:39
  evolving
• 30:40
  science
• 30:41
  too
• 30:41
  when
• 30:41
  it
• 30:41
  comes
• 30:42
  to
• 30:43
  that
• 30:44
  infection
• 30:44
  in
• 30:44
  particular.
• 30:46
  So
• 30:47
  there
• 30:47
  are
• 30:47
  other
• 30:47
  things
• 30:48
  that
• 30:48
  can
• 30:48
  cause
• 30:49
  abnormal
• 30:50
  discharge
• 30:51
  like
• 30:51
  STDs
• 30:52
  too.
• 30:52
  So
• 30:53
  that's
• 30:53
  why
• 30:53
  it
• 30:53
  really
• 30:53
  is
• 30:54
  important
• 30:54
  for
• 30:54
  women
• 30:54
  to
• 30:55
  determine.
• 30:57
  But
• 30:57
  one
• 30:57
  thing
• 30:58
  that
• 30:59
  has
• 30:59
  been
• 30:59
  part
• 31:00
  of
• 31:00
  the
• 31:00
  heart
• 31:00
  of
• 31:00
  what
• 31:01
  we
• 31:01
  have
• 31:01
  done
• 31:02
  is
• 31:02
  to
• 31:03
  make
• 31:03
  our
• 31:04
  product
• 31:04
  available
• 31:07
  in
• 31:07
  the
• 31:07
  healthcare
• 31:07
  deserts
• 31:08
  that
• 31:08
  exist
• 31:08
  in
• 31:08
  the
• 31:09
  US
• 31:10
  because
• 31:10
  there's
• 31:11
  so
• 31:11
  many
• 31:11
  women
• 31:11
  who
• 31:12
  don't
• 31:12
  have
• 31:13
  access
• 31:13
  to
• 31:15
  an
• 31:15
  ob
• 31:15
  GYN
• 31:16
  or
• 31:16
  a
• 31:16
  healthcare
• 31:17
  professional,
• 31:18
  you
• 31:19
  know,
• 31:19
  and
• 31:19
  I
• 31:20
  back
• 31:20
  to
• 31:20
  Mississippi,
• 31:21
  where
• 31:21
  I'm
• 31:22
  originally
• 31:22
  from,
• 31:23
  the
• 31:23
  nearest
• 31:24
  healthcare
• 31:24
  provider
• 31:24
  was
• 31:25
  about
• 31:25
  45
• 31:25
  minutes
• 31:26
  from
• 31:26
  where
• 31:26
  I
• 31:26
  grew
• 31:27
  up.
• 31:27
  And
• 31:28
  a
• 31:28
  lot
• 31:28
  of
• 31:28
  women,
• 31:29
  because
• 31:29
  it's
• 31:30
  the
• 31:30
  poorest
• 31:31
  state
• 31:31
  in
• 31:31
  the
• 31:31
  country,
• 31:32
  the
• 31:32
  lack
• 31:33
  of
• 31:33
  access
• 31:33
  to
• 31:33
  health
• 31:34
  care
• 31:35
  and
• 31:36
  you
• 31:37
  know,
• 31:37
  the
• 31:37
  poverty
• 31:37
  level
• 31:38
  there,
• 31:38
  we're
• 31:39
  making
• 31:39
  sure
• 31:39
  that
• 31:39
  we
• 31:40
  have
• 31:40
  our
• 31:40
  products
• 31:40
  even
• 31:41
  at
• 31:41
  Dollar
• 31:41
  General.
• 31:42
  So
• 31:43
  that,
• 31:43
  because
• 31:43
  there's
• 31:44
  a
• 31:44
  Dollar
• 31:44
  General,
• 31:44
  even
• 31:45
  in
• 31:45
  those
• 31:45
  healthcare
• 31:45
  deserts
• 31:46
  to
• 31:46
  make
• 31:46
  sure
• 31:46
  that
• 31:46
  there
• 31:46
  is
• 31:47
  an
• 31:47
  option
• 31:47
  for
• 31:47
  these
• 31:47
  women
• 31:48
  to
• 31:48
  have.
• 31:49
  So
• 31:50
  but
• 31:50
  yet
• 31:51
  they,
• 31:51
  a
• 31:52
  lot
• 31:52
  of

  women
• 31:52
  will
• 31:52
  use

  PhD
• 31:54
  to,
• 31:55
  you

  or

  their

• 31:58
  just
• 31:58
  to
• 31:58
  help
• 31:59
  reset

• 32:01
  a

  After

  Okay.

  Is
• 32:06
  it
• 32:06
  like
• 32:06
  an
• 32:06
  immediate
• 32:07
  effect?
• 32:07
  Will
• 32:07

• 32:08
  right
• 32:08
  away
• 32:08
  kind

  Okay,
• 32:11
  that's
• 32:11
  good
• 32:12
  to
• 32:12
  know.
• 32:12
  Yes.
• 32:13
  Put
• 32:13
  that
• 32:13
  in
• 32:14
  your
• 32:14
  checklist,
• 32:14
  ladies.
• 32:17
  Literally
• 32:17
  the
• 32:17
  tip
• 32:20
  after
• 32:20
  the
• 32:21
  tip.
• 32:22
  I

  it.
• 32:25
  Oh,
• 32:25
  that's
• 32:26
  so
• 32:26
  great.
• 32:27
  So
• 32:27
  what
• 32:28
  are
• 32:28
  some
• 32:28
  of
• 32:28
  the
• 32:29
  mistakes
• 32:29
  that
• 32:29
  you
• 32:30
  think
• 32:30
  women
• 32:30
  are
• 32:31
  making
• 32:31
  when
• 32:32
  it
• 32:32
  comes
• 32:32
  to
• 32:32
  feminine
• 32:33
  healthcare?
• 32:33
  Yeah,
• 32:34
  well,
• 32:34
  for
• 32:34
  one
• 32:34
  thing,
• 32:35
  over
• 32:35
  like
• 32:36
  the
• 32:36
  use
• 32:36
  of
• 32:37
  all
• 32:37
  these
• 32:37
  perfumed
• 32:38
  and
• 32:38
  scented
• 32:38
  products,
• 32:40
  we
• 32:41
  are
• 32:41
  very
• 32:41
  intentional
• 32:42
  about
• 32:42
  if
• 32:42
  we
• 32:43
  have
• 32:44
  scent
• 32:44
  and
• 32:45
  you
• 32:45
  know,
• 32:45
  our
• 32:46
  washes
• 32:47
  and
• 32:47
  such
• 32:47
  that
• 32:47
  they're
• 32:48
  plant
• 32:48
  based
• 32:49
  and
• 32:49
  they're
• 32:49
  not
• 32:50
  synthetic.
• 32:51
  So.
• 32:51
  And
• 32:52
  I
• 32:52
  think
• 32:52
  a
• 32:52
  lot
• 32:52
  of
• 32:52
  women
• 32:53
  are
• 32:53
  trying
• 32:53
  to.
• 32:55
  They're
• 32:56
  focusing
• 32:56
  on
• 32:56
  the
• 32:57
  external,
• 32:59
  you
• 33:00
  know,
• 33:00
  treating
• 33:00
  odor
• 33:01
  when
• 33:01
  it's.
• 33:01
  That's
• 33:01
  not
• 33:02
  the
• 33:02
  issues,
• 33:03
  it's
• 33:03
  internal
• 33:03
  that
• 33:04
  they
• 33:04
  need
• 33:04
  to
• 33:04
  address,
• 33:06
  but
• 33:06
  they
• 33:06
  just
• 33:07
  don't
• 33:08
  understand
• 33:09
  where
• 33:10
  it's
• 33:10
  coming
• 33:10
  from.
• 33:10
  So
• 33:11
  a
• 33:11
  huge
• 33:11
  part
• 33:11
  of
• 33:11
  what
• 33:12
  we're
• 33:12
  trying
• 33:12
  to
• 33:13
  do
• 33:13
  at
• 33:13
  PhD
• 33:15
  talking
• 33:16
  about,
• 33:16
  you
• 33:17
  know,
• 33:17
  we
• 33:17
  were
• 33:17
  talking
• 33:17
  about
• 33:17
  using
• 33:18
  the
• 33:18
  word
• 33:18
  vagina,
• 33:19
  is
• 33:22
  trying
• 33:23
  to
• 33:23
  educate
• 33:24
  women
• 33:24
  so
• 33:25
  that
• 33:25
  they're
• 33:25
  more
• 33:25
  body
• 33:26
  literate.
• 33:28
  We
• 33:28
  have
• 33:28
  found
• 33:29
  that
• 33:30
  huge
• 33:30
  percentage
• 33:31
  of
• 33:31
  women
• 33:31
  even
• 33:31
  in
• 33:32
  the
• 33:33
  quizzes
• 33:33
  that
• 33:33
  we
• 33:33
  have
• 33:33
  put
• 33:34
  out
• 33:34
  there
• 33:34
  recently.
• 33:34
  We
• 33:34
  have
• 33:35
  a
• 33:35
  campaign
• 33:35
  called
• 33:35
  Raise
• 33:35
  youe
• 33:35
  Vagina
• 33:36
  iq
• 33:38
  and
• 33:38
  it
• 33:38
  stemmed
• 33:39
  from
• 33:39
  conversations
• 33:40
  we've
• 33:40
  had
• 33:41
  with
• 33:41
  consumers
• 33:42
  and
• 33:42
  also
• 33:42
  with
• 33:43
  healthcare
• 33:43
  providers
• 33:44
  where
• 33:45
  they're
• 33:45
  seeing
• 33:46
  their
• 33:46
  patients
• 33:46
  who
• 33:48
  can't
• 33:48
  really
• 33:50
  describe
• 33:50
  what's
• 33:50
  happening
• 33:51
  with
• 33:51
  their
• 33:51
  bodies
• 33:51
  because
• 33:51
  they
• 33:52
  don't
• 33:52
  know
• 33:52
  the
• 33:52
  correct
• 33:52
  body
• 33:52
  parts.
• 33:53
  They
• 33:53
  don't
• 33:54
  know
• 33:54
  the
• 33:54
  difference
• 33:54
  between
• 33:54
  their
• 33:55
  vagina
• 33:56
  and
• 33:56
  their
• 33:56
  vulva,
• 33:56
  which
• 33:56
  is
• 33:57
  on
• 33:57
  our.
• 33:57
  The
• 33:57
  quiz
• 33:57
  that
• 33:58
  we
• 33:58
  have
• 33:58
  out
• 33:58
  right
• 33:58
  now.
• 33:58
  It's
• 33:59
  over
• 34:01
  like
• 34:01
  close
• 34:01
  to,
• 34:01
  I
• 34:01
  think
• 34:02
  70%
• 34:02
  don't.
• 34:03
  Couldn't
• 34:04
  tell
• 34:04
  the
• 34:04
  difference
• 34:04
  on
• 34:04
  a
• 34:05
  diagram.
• 34:06
  So
• 34:06
  in
• 34:08
  what
• 34:08
  is
• 34:08
  at
• 34:08
  the
• 34:08
  root
• 34:09
  cause
• 34:09
  of
• 34:09
  that
• 34:10
  is
• 34:10
  the
• 34:10
  shame
• 34:11
  and
• 34:11
  stigma
• 34:11
  that
• 34:12
  has
• 34:12
  existed
• 34:13
  for
• 34:13
  decades.
• 34:14
  We
• 34:15
  know
• 34:15
  more
• 34:15
  about
• 34:16
  the
• 34:16
  anatomy
• 34:17
  of
• 34:17
  a
• 34:17
  frog
• 34:18
  when
• 34:18
  we
• 34:19
  graduate
• 34:19
  from
• 34:20
  high
• 34:20
  school
• 34:20
  than
• 34:20
  we
• 34:20
  do
• 34:20
  our
• 34:21
  own
• 34:21
  bodies.
• 34:22
  And
• 34:23
  we've
• 34:23
  got
• 34:24
  to
• 34:24
  change
• 34:24
  that.
• 34:24
  In
• 34:24
  order
• 34:25
  for
• 34:25
  us
• 34:25
  to
• 34:25
  be
• 34:26
  back
• 34:26
  to
• 34:27
  being
• 34:27
  an
• 34:27
  advocate
• 34:27
  for
• 34:27
  our
• 34:28
  health,
• 34:28
  to
• 34:29
  being
• 34:29
  advocates
• 34:29
  for
• 34:30
  ourselves
• 34:30
  so
• 34:30
  that
• 34:30
  we
• 34:31
  can,
• 34:31
  you
• 34:32
  know,
• 34:32
  have
• 34:32
  these
• 34:33
  conversations
• 34:33
  with
• 34:33
  our
• 34:33
  healthcare
• 34:34
  providers
• 34:35
  or
• 34:35
  even
• 34:35
  our
• 34:35
  partners,
• 34:36
  our
• 34:36
  loved
• 34:37
  ones,
• 34:37
  be
• 34:37
  advocates
• 34:38
  for
• 34:38
  our
• 34:38
  moms
• 34:39
  and
• 34:39
  our
• 34:39
  daughters.
• 34:40
  We
• 34:40
  need
• 34:40
  to
• 34:41
  know
• 34:42
  how
• 34:42
  to
• 34:42
  pronounce
• 34:43
  the
• 34:43
  body
• 34:43
  parts,
• 34:44
  what
• 34:44
  they
• 34:44
  are,
• 34:44
  the
• 34:44
  differences,
• 34:45
  and
• 34:45
  be
• 34:46
  educated
• 34:46
  on
• 34:47
  things
• 34:47
  like
• 34:47
  discharge
• 34:48
  and
• 34:50
  menopause
• 34:51
  and
• 34:51
  our
• 34:51
  periods,
• 34:52
  all
• 34:52
  these
• 34:53
  things
• 34:53
  that
• 34:53
  are
• 34:55
  beautifully
• 34:55
  part
• 34:56
  of
• 34:56
  our
• 34:56
  lives.
• 34:58
  And
• 34:58
  just
• 34:58
  to
• 34:58
  embrace
• 34:59
  that
• 34:59
  as
• 34:59
  women
• 35:00
  and
• 35:00
  to
• 35:01
  normalize
• 35:01
  the
• 35:02
  conversation
• 35:02
  so
• 35:02
  that
• 35:03
  vagina
• 35:03
  is
• 35:04
  not
• 35:04
  a
• 35:04
  dirty
• 35:04
  word
• 35:05
  anymore.
• 35:05
  And
• 35:06
  that
• 35:06
  we
• 35:06
  can
• 35:07
  hopefully
• 35:08
  one
• 35:08
  day
• 35:08
  be
• 35:08
  able
• 35:08
  to
• 35:08
  proudly
• 35:09
  say
• 35:09
  the
• 35:09
  word
• 35:10
  on
• 35:10
  tv.
• 35:12
  And
• 35:12
  it's
• 35:13
  why
• 35:13
  we've
• 35:13
  started
• 35:13
  this
• 35:14
  raise
• 35:14
  your
• 35:14
  vagina
• 35:14
  IQ
• 35:15
  campaign
• 35:15
  to
• 35:16
  educate
• 35:16
  women
• 35:16
  on
• 35:16
  that
• 35:17
  and
• 35:17
  also
• 35:17
  the
• 35:17
  functions
• 35:18
  of
• 35:18
  their
• 35:18
  body
• 35:18
  that
• 35:19
  are
• 35:19
  totally
• 35:20
  normal.
• 35:20
  You
• 35:20
  know
• 35:20
  what?
• 35:21
  And
• 35:21
  you
• 35:21
  bring
• 35:21
  up
• 35:21
  a
• 35:21
  really
• 35:22
  good
• 35:22
  point
• 35:22
  about
• 35:23
  our
• 35:23
  daughters
• 35:23
  and
• 35:24
  the
• 35:24
  next
• 35:24
  generation,
• 35:25
  because
• 35:25
  I
• 35:26
  have
• 35:26
  a
• 35:26
  10
• 35:26
  year
• 35:26
  old,
• 35:27
  and
• 35:27
  I
• 35:27
  know
• 35:27
  when
• 35:27
  I
• 35:28
  was
• 35:28
  growing
• 35:28
  up,
• 35:28
  I
• 35:28
  mean,
• 35:28
  I
• 35:29
  maybe
• 35:29
  grew
• 35:29
  up
• 35:29
  a
• 35:29
  little
• 35:29
  differently.
• 35:30
  I
• 35:31
  grew
• 35:31
  up
• 35:31
  in
• 35:31
  a
• 35:31
  medical
• 35:31
  family.
• 35:32
  My
• 35:32
  dad's
• 35:32
  a
• 35:33
  retired
• 35:33
  oncologist.
• 35:34
  So
• 35:34
  body
• 35:35
  parts
• 35:35
  were
• 35:35
  part
• 35:35
  of
• 35:36
  our,
• 35:36
  like,
• 35:36
  dinnertime
• 35:36
  conversation.
• 35:37
  Right,
• 35:38
  right.
• 35:39
  I
• 35:39
  mean,
• 35:39
  that
• 35:39
  is
• 35:39
  one
• 35:39
  of
• 35:40
  the
• 35:40
  things
• 35:40
  that
• 35:40
  I
• 35:40
  am
• 35:40
  grateful
• 35:41
  for
• 35:41
  because
• 35:41
  it
• 35:42
  was
• 35:42
  never
• 35:42
  sort
• 35:42
  of
• 35:42
  a
• 35:42
  dirty
• 35:43
  word.
• 35:43
  It's
• 35:43
  like,
• 35:43
  oh,
• 35:44
  your
• 35:44
  vagina
• 35:44
  is
• 35:45
  like
• 35:45
  your
• 35:45
  head
• 35:46
  or
• 35:46
  your
• 35:46
  arm
• 35:46
  or,
• 35:47
  you
• 35:47
  know,
• 35:47
  whatever
• 35:47
  it
• 35:48
  is.
• 35:48
  That's
• 35:48
  the
• 35:48
  way
• 35:49
  it
• 35:49
  should
• 35:49
  be.
• 35:49
  Right?
• 35:49
  It.
• 35:50
  Absolutely.
• 35:50
  And
• 35:50
  so
• 35:51
  that's
• 35:51
  what
• 35:51
  I
• 35:51
  really,
• 35:52
  you
• 35:52
  know,
• 35:52
  instilled
• 35:52
  with
• 35:53
  my
• 35:53
  daughter
• 35:53
  because
• 35:53
  I
• 35:53
  think
• 35:54
  it
• 35:54
  is
• 35:54
  important
• 35:54
  for
• 35:54
  her
• 35:55
  to
• 35:55
  identify,
• 35:56
  you
• 35:56
  know,
• 35:56
  mommy,
• 35:57
  you
• 35:57
  know,
• 35:58
  my
• 35:58
  vagina.
• 35:59
  This
• 35:59
  that,
• 36:00
  you
• 36:00
  know,
• 36:00
  like,
• 36:01
  using
• 36:01
  the
• 36:01
  correct
• 36:02
  terminology,
• 36:02
  means
• 36:03
  everything.
• 36:03
  And
• 36:03
  I
• 36:04
  think
• 36:04
  it
• 36:04
  also
• 36:05
  protects
• 36:05
  our
• 36:05
  children,
• 36:06
  you
• 36:07
  know,
• 36:07
  from
• 36:07
  people
• 36:07
  who
• 36:08
  are
• 36:08
  unsavory
• 36:08
  characters,
• 36:09
  pedophiles
• 36:09
  that
• 36:10
  like
• 36:10
  to
• 36:10
  make
• 36:10
  names
• 36:11
  for
• 36:11
  different
• 36:12
  body
• 36:12
  parts
• 36:13
  and
• 36:13
  these
• 36:13
  kind
• 36:13
  of
• 36:13
  pet
• 36:14
  names
• 36:14
  and
• 36:14
  things
• 36:14
  like
• 36:14
  that.
• 36:15
  Right.
• 36:15
  And
• 36:15
  I
• 36:16
  think
• 36:16
  it
• 36:16
  actually
• 36:17
  is
• 36:17
  a
• 36:17
  safety
• 36:17
  issue.
• 36:18
  That's
• 36:18
  a
• 36:18
  great
• 36:19
  point.
• 36:19
  Right.
• 36:19
  It's
• 36:20
  a
• 36:20
  safety
• 36:20
  issue.
• 36:21
  We
• 36:21
  need
• 36:21
  to,
• 36:21
  like,
• 36:22
  say
• 36:22
  what
• 36:22
  it
• 36:23
  is.
• 36:23
  It's
• 36:23
  a
• 36:23
  vagina,
• 36:24
  you
• 36:24
  know,
• 36:25
  or
• 36:25
  it's
• 36:25
  a
• 36:25
  vulva
• 36:26
  or
• 36:26
  whatever
• 36:27
  the
• 36:27
  part
• 36:27
  is.
• 36:27
  Would
• 36:28
  you
• 36:28
  agree
• 36:28
  with
• 36:28
  that?
• 36:29
  Absolutely.
• 36:29
  And
• 36:29
  I
• 36:30
  never
• 36:30
  really
• 36:30
  thought
• 36:31
  about
• 36:31
  it
• 36:31
  like
• 36:31
  that
• 36:31
  as
• 36:31
  a
• 36:32
  safety
• 36:32
  concern,
• 36:32
  but
• 36:33
  it
• 36:33
  totally
• 36:34
  is,
• 36:35
  you
• 36:35
  know,
• 36:36
  and
• 36:36
  if.
• 36:36
  Because
• 36:36
  that
• 36:37
  could
• 36:37
  be,
• 36:37
  you
• 36:37
  know,
• 36:38
  a
• 36:39
  way
• 36:39
  for
• 36:39
  women
• 36:39
  to
• 36:40
  be
• 36:40
  victimized
• 36:40
  and,
• 36:41
  you
• 36:41
  know,
• 36:42
  so.
• 36:42
  Great,
• 36:42
  great
• 36:43
  point.
• 36:43
  And
• 36:44
  also,
• 36:45
  you
• 36:45
  know,
• 36:45
  for
• 36:46
  men
• 36:46
  to
• 36:47
  be
• 36:47
  educated
• 36:47
  as
• 36:48
  well,
• 36:49
  it's
• 36:49
  interesting,
• 36:50
  30%
• 36:51
  of
• 36:51
  our
• 36:51
  website
• 36:51
  visitors
• 36:52
  are.
• 36:53
  Are
• 36:53
  men,
• 36:53
  which
• 36:53
  I
• 36:54
  absolutely
• 36:54
  love
• 36:54
  that
• 36:55
  because
• 36:56
  I
• 36:56
  have
• 36:57
  been
• 36:58
  there
• 36:58
  and
• 36:59
  had
• 36:59
  conversations
• 37:00
  with
• 37:00
  men
• 37:01
  and
• 37:01
  dads
• 37:02
  who
• 37:03
  want
• 37:03
  information
• 37:03
  for
• 37:04
  their
• 37:04
  daughters
• 37:06
  and
• 37:06
  who
• 37:06
  are
• 37:07
  partners
• 37:07
  who
• 37:08
  want
• 37:08
  to
• 37:08
  help
• 37:08
  improve,
• 37:09
  you
• 37:09
  know,
• 37:10
  that
• 37:10
  relationship
• 37:11
  or
• 37:12
  help
• 37:12
  improve,
• 37:13
  you
• 37:13
  know,
• 37:13
  her
• 37:13
  health
• 37:14
  as
• 37:14
  well.
• 37:15
  So
• 37:15
  for
• 37:16
  men
• 37:16
  to
• 37:16
  be
• 37:16
  educated,
• 37:17
  too,
• 37:17
  I
• 37:17
  think
• 37:17
  it's
• 37:18
  a
• 37:18
  huge
• 37:18
  part
• 37:18
  of
• 37:19
  the
• 37:19
  equation
• 37:20
  which
• 37:20
  ultimately
• 37:22
  will
• 37:22
  hopefully
• 37:23
  lead
• 37:24
  to
• 37:24
  less
• 37:24
  censorship.
• 37:25
  Yes.
• 37:26
  You
• 37:26
  know,
• 37:26
  down
• 37:27
  the
• 37:27
  road.
• 37:27
  I
• 37:28
  mean,
• 37:28
  it's
• 37:28
  still
• 37:28
  mind
• 37:28
  blowing.
• 37:28
  You
• 37:29
  cannot
• 37:29
  say
• 37:29
  vagina
• 37:30
  on
• 37:30
  tv.
• 37:30
  I
• 37:31
  mean.
• 37:31
  But,
• 37:31
  Ed,
• 37:32
  we
• 37:32
  can
• 37:32
  talk
• 37:32
  about
• 37:33
  all
• 37:33
  day
• 37:33
  long.
• 37:33
  All
• 37:33
  day
• 37:34
  long.
• 37:34
  Right.
• 37:35
  Because
• 37:35
  it
• 37:35
  has
• 37:35
  to
• 37:35
  do
• 37:36
  with
• 37:36
  men,
• 37:36
  you
• 37:36
  know.
• 37:36
  Totally.
• 37:38
  So,
• 37:38
  so
• 37:39
  ridiculous.
• 37:39
  Yes.
• 37:40
  So
• 37:40
  ridiculous.
• 37:41
  So
• 37:41
  what
• 37:41
  is
• 37:42
  next
• 37:42
  for
• 37:42
  the
• 37:42
  brand.
• 37:43
  What
• 37:43
  exciting
• 37:44
  things
• 37:44
  do
• 37:44
  you
• 37:45
  have
• 37:45
  coming
• 37:45
  down
• 37:45
  the
• 37:45
  pipeline?
• 37:46
  Oh
• 37:46
  my
• 37:46
  goodness.
• 37:47
  We've
• 37:47
  got
• 37:48
  some
• 37:48
  really
• 37:49
  exciting
• 37:49
  things.
• 37:51
  Yeah,
• 37:52
  I
• 37:52
  have
• 37:53
  just
• 37:53
  the
• 37:54
  past
• 37:54
  two
• 37:54
  weeks
• 37:54
  I
• 37:54
  was
• 37:54
  in
• 37:55
  Bentonville
• 37:55
  at
• 37:56
  Walmart
• 37:56
  and
• 37:56
  then
• 37:57
  in
• 37:57
  Minneapolis
• 37:58
  with
• 37:58
  Target.
• 37:59
  And
• 38:00
  we.
• 38:01
  One
• 38:02
  of
• 38:02
  the
• 38:02
  things
• 38:02
  that
• 38:02
  we're
• 38:03
  really
• 38:03
  focused
• 38:04
  on
• 38:04
  is
• 38:06
  in
• 38:07
  talking
• 38:07
  about
• 38:07
  women's
• 38:08
  health
• 38:09
  is
• 38:09
  funding
• 38:10
  clinical
• 38:10
  research
• 38:12
  when
• 38:12
  it
• 38:12
  comes
• 38:12
  to
• 38:12
  women's
• 38:13
  health.
• 38:14
  And
• 38:15
  I
• 38:16
  am
• 38:16
  so
• 38:16
  honored
• 38:17
  and
• 38:17
  privileged
• 38:18
  and
• 38:18
  just
• 38:19
  so
• 38:20
  happy
• 38:20
  that
• 38:20
  I'm
• 38:21
  in
• 38:21
  a
• 38:21
  position
• 38:22
  to
• 38:23
  use
• 38:23
  the
• 38:24
  proceeds
• 38:24
  of
• 38:24
  sales
• 38:25
  from
• 38:25
  our
• 38:25
  products
• 38:26
  to
• 38:26
  help
• 38:26
  fund
• 38:26
  research
• 38:28
  that
• 38:28
  is
• 38:28
  so
• 38:29
  needed
• 38:29
  in
• 38:30
  women's
• 38:30
  health.
• 38:31
  And
• 38:32
  I
• 38:32
  mean
• 38:33
  we
• 38:33
  have
• 38:34
  been
• 38:34
  set
• 38:35
  aside
• 38:35
  for
• 38:36
  decades
• 38:37
  and
• 38:38
  even
• 38:38
  to
• 38:38
  the
• 38:38
  point
• 38:39
  where
• 38:40
  the,
• 38:41
  you
• 38:41
  know,
• 38:41
  say
• 38:42
  you
• 38:42
  need
• 38:42
  8
• 38:42
  to
• 38:42
  10
• 38:43
  hours
• 38:43
  of
• 38:43
  sleep
• 38:44
  or
• 38:44
  whatever,
• 38:44
  however
• 38:44
  many
• 38:45
  it
• 38:45
  is,
• 38:45
  that
• 38:46
  was
• 38:46
  actually
• 38:46
  done
• 38:46
  on
• 38:46
  men,
• 38:47
  not
• 38:48
  on
• 38:48
  women.
• 38:48
  Right.
• 38:49
  Because
• 38:49
  the
• 38:49
  medical
• 38:49
  community
• 38:50
  doesn't
• 38:51
  test
• 38:51
  on
• 38:51
  women,
• 38:52
  test
• 38:52
  for
• 38:52
  women.
• 38:52
  Right.
• 38:53
  We
• 38:53
  need
• 38:53
  more
• 38:53
  sleep.
• 38:54
  Right.
• 38:55
  We
• 38:55
  need
• 38:55
  way
• 38:56
  more
• 38:56
  sleep.
• 38:56
  We're
• 38:57
  doing
• 38:57
  everything.
• 38:58
  Yes,
• 38:59
  it's
• 38:59
  true.
• 38:59
  They
• 39:00
  almost
• 39:00
  treat
• 39:00
  us
• 39:00
  like
• 39:00
  little
• 39:01
  men
• 39:01
  or
• 39:01
  something
• 39:02
  when
• 39:02
  they're
• 39:02
  testing
• 39:03
  and
• 39:03
  like
• 39:03
  going,
• 39:04
  you
• 39:04
  know,
• 39:04
  trying
• 39:05
  all
• 39:05
  these
• 39:05
  things.
• 39:06
  So
• 39:06
  we
• 39:06
  are
• 39:08
  spending
• 39:09
  tens
• 39:09
  of
• 39:09
  millions
• 39:10
  of
• 39:10
  dollars
• 39:10
  in
• 39:10
  clinical
• 39:11
  research
• 39:12
  and
• 39:14
  we've
• 39:15
  got
• 39:15
  several
• 39:15
  different
• 39:16
  research
• 39:17
  projects
• 39:17
  going
• 39:18
  on
• 39:18
  right
• 39:18
  now
• 39:18
  that
• 39:19
  I
• 39:19
  can
• 39:19
  talk
• 39:19
  about
• 39:19
  more
• 39:20
  later.
• 39:21
  But
• 39:21
  one
• 39:22
  important
• 39:23
  one
• 39:23
  is
• 39:25
  that
• 39:25
  will
• 39:25
  be
• 39:25
  in
• 39:26
  a
• 39:26
  major
• 39:26
  menopause
• 39:27
  journal
• 39:28
  is
• 39:28
  a.
• 39:31
  It
• 39:32
  is
• 39:32
  an
• 39:32
  ingredient
• 39:33
  that
• 39:34
  has
• 39:34
  become
• 39:34
  very
• 39:35
  hot.
• 39:35
  But
• 39:35
  it
• 39:36
  is
• 39:36
  done
• 39:37
  on
• 39:37
  a
• 39:37
  specific
• 39:37
  form
• 39:38
  of
• 39:38
  creatine.
• 39:41
  Not
• 39:42
  your
• 39:42
  typical
• 39:43
  creatine
• 39:43
  monohydrate
• 39:44
  that
• 39:44
  is
• 39:44
  out
• 39:44
  there,
• 39:45
  but
• 39:45
  a
• 39:45
  specific
• 39:46
  form
• 39:47
  that
• 39:47
  will
• 39:48
  show
• 39:49
  a
• 39:50
  huge
• 39:50
  decrease
• 39:50
  in
• 39:50
  menopausal
• 39:51
  symptoms.
• 39:53
  But
• 39:53
  more
• 39:53
  to
• 39:53
  come
• 39:53
  on
• 39:54
  that.
• 39:54
  So
• 39:55
  we
• 39:55
  are
• 39:56
  actively
• 39:57
  working
• 39:58
  on
• 39:59
  innovation
• 40:00
  when
• 40:01
  it
• 40:01
  comes
• 40:01
  to
• 40:02
  those
• 40:02
  products
• 40:03
  not
• 40:04
  only
• 40:04
  for
• 40:04
  menopause,
• 40:05
  but
• 40:05
  also
• 40:05
  for
• 40:06
  brain
• 40:06
  health.
• 40:07
  And
• 40:08
  so
• 40:09
  stay
• 40:09
  tuned
• 40:09
  on
• 40:10
  that
• 40:10
  or
• 40:10
  that'll
• 40:11
  be
• 40:12
  hopefully
• 40:13
  launching
• 40:13
  Q4
• 40:14
  of
• 40:14
  this
• 40:14
  year.
• 40:16
  In
• 40:16
  addition,
• 40:18
  using
• 40:19
  the
• 40:19
  insights
• 40:20
  and
• 40:21
  findings
• 40:21
  from
• 40:22
  the
• 40:22
  research
• 40:22
  that
• 40:22
  we're
• 40:22
  doing
• 40:23
  to
• 40:23
  help
• 40:23
  innovate
• 40:24
  in
• 40:24
  women's
• 40:24
  health.
• 40:25
  Because
• 40:26
  I
• 40:28
  again
• 40:28
  grateful
• 40:29
  that
• 40:29
  I'm
• 40:29
  now
• 40:30
  being
• 40:30
  presented
• 40:30
  with
• 40:31
  opportunities
• 40:32
  for
• 40:32
  products
• 40:33
  that
• 40:34
  were
• 40:35
  set
• 40:35
  aside
• 40:35
  by
• 40:36
  Big
• 40:36
  Pharma
• 40:37
  because
• 40:39
  women's
• 40:40
  health
• 40:40
  was
• 40:40
  not
• 40:40
  a
• 40:40
  priority
• 40:41
  for
• 40:41
  them.
• 40:42
  And
• 40:43
  we
• 40:43
  now
• 40:43
  have
• 40:43
  researchers
• 40:44
  coming
• 40:44
  to
• 40:45
  us
• 40:45
  with
• 40:46
  really
• 40:46
  solid
• 40:48
  clinical
• 40:48
  data
• 40:49
  of
• 40:51
  new
• 40:51
  products
• 40:52
  that
• 40:52
  we're
• 40:53
  investing
• 40:53
  in
• 40:54
  so
• 40:54
  that
• 40:54
  we
• 40:55
  can
• 40:55
  be
• 40:55
  the
• 40:56
  brand
• 40:56
  that
• 40:56
  brings
• 40:56
  them
• 40:56
  to
• 40:57
  market.
• 40:57
  Because
• 40:58
  you
• 40:58
  know,
• 40:59
  they
• 40:59
  might
• 40:59
  not
• 40:59
  have
• 40:59
  brought
• 41:00
  them
• 41:00
  to
• 41:00
  market
• 41:00
  because
• 41:00
  it's
• 41:00
  not
• 41:01
  a
• 41:01
  multi
• 41:01
  billion
• 41:01
  dollar
• 41:02
  drug.
• 41:02
  Well,
• 41:02
  so
• 41:03
  what
• 41:03
  if
• 41:03
  it
• 41:03
  can
• 41:03
  improve
• 41:04
  the
• 41:05
  lives
• 41:05
  of
• 41:05
  women?
• 41:05
  I
• 41:06
  don't
• 41:06
  care
• 41:06
  how
• 41:06
  much
• 41:07
  money
• 41:07
  it's
• 41:07
  going
• 41:07
  to
• 41:07
  make
• 41:07
  us,
• 41:08
  you
• 41:08
  know,
• 41:09
  it's
• 41:09
  something
• 41:09
  we
• 41:10
  have
• 41:10
  to
• 41:10
  do.
• 41:10
  We
• 41:11
  have
• 41:11
  to,
• 41:11
  you
• 41:12
  know,
• 41:12
  take
• 41:12
  care
• 41:12
  of
• 41:12
  each
• 41:13
  other
• 41:13
  and
• 41:13
  invest
• 41:13
  in,
• 41:14
  in
• 41:14
  that
• 41:14
  research
• 41:15
  and
• 41:15
  continue
• 41:16
  to
• 41:16
  innovate.
• 41:17
  We
• 41:17
  are
• 41:17
  our
• 41:18
  best
• 41:18
  advocates
• 41:18
  totally
• 41:19
  for
• 41:19
  ourselves
• 41:20
  and
• 41:20
  for
• 41:20
  other
• 41:20
  women.
• 41:21
  And
• 41:21
  absolutely.
• 41:22
  So
• 41:22
  important,
• 41:22
  like
• 41:23
  you're
• 41:23
  saying,
• 41:23
  oh,
• 41:24
  I
• 41:24
  thought
• 41:24
  of
• 41:24
  something
• 41:24
  because
• 41:25
  I
• 41:25
  do
• 41:25
  think
• 41:25
  that
• 41:26
  there
• 41:26
  is
• 41:26
  still
• 41:26
  kind
• 41:27
  of
• 41:27
  like,
• 41:27
  you
• 41:28
  know,
• 41:28
  rumors
• 41:29
  out
• 41:29
  there
• 41:29
  about
• 41:29
  this
• 41:29
  kind
• 41:30
  of
• 41:30
  product.
• 41:31
  To
• 41:31
  douche
• 41:31
  or
• 41:32
  not
• 41:32
  to
• 41:32
  douche.
• 41:33
  Yeah.
• 41:33
  So
• 41:34
  great
• 41:34
  question.
• 41:36
  The
• 41:37
  traditional
• 41:38
  douches
• 41:39
  that
• 41:39
  have
• 41:39
  been
• 41:39
  around
• 41:39
  forever
• 41:40
  were
• 41:40
  the
• 41:41
  perfumes,
• 41:43
  you
• 41:43
  know,
• 41:43
  from
• 41:44
  a
• 41:44
  major
• 41:44
  brand
• 41:45
  products,
• 41:46
  and
• 41:47
  they
• 41:50
  were
• 41:50
  found
• 41:51
  to
• 41:51
  interfere
• 41:52
  with
• 41:52
  the
• 41:52
  lactobacilli
• 41:53
  that
• 41:53
  is
• 41:53
  in
• 41:54
  the
• 41:54
  vagina
• 41:55
  that
• 41:55
  we
• 41:56
  want
• 41:56
  there.
• 41:56
  We
• 41:56
  want
• 41:56
  it
• 41:56
  to
• 41:57
  remain
• 41:57
  there.
• 41:58
  So
• 41:59
  we
• 41:59
  created.
• 42:00
  It's
• 42:01
  actually
• 42:01
  a
• 42:02
  little
• 42:03
  history
• 42:03
  here.
• 42:04
  It's
• 42:04
  the
• 42:04
  way
• 42:04
  I
• 42:04
  developed
• 42:05
  PhD.
• 42:06
  So
• 42:07
  when
• 42:07
  I
• 42:08
  tried
• 42:08
  boric
• 42:09
  acid
• 42:09
  for
• 42:09
  the
• 42:09
  first
• 42:09
  time,
• 42:10
  I
• 42:10
  didn't
• 42:11
  have
• 42:11
  access
• 42:11
  to
• 42:11
  a
• 42:11
  gelatin
• 42:12
  capsule
• 42:13
  like
• 42:13
  to
• 42:13
  make
• 42:14
  my
• 42:14
  or
• 42:15
  boric
• 42:15
  acid.
• 42:16
  So
• 42:17
  I
• 42:17
  did
• 42:17
  it
• 42:18
  the
• 42:18
  way
• 42:18
  it's
• 42:18
  been
• 42:18
  done
• 42:19
  for
• 42:19
  over
• 42:20
  100
• 42:20
  years,
• 42:20
  the
• 42:21
  way
• 42:21
  my
• 42:21
  great
• 42:21
  grandmother
• 42:22
  did
• 42:22
  it.
• 42:22
  I
• 42:22
  created
• 42:23
  a
• 42:23
  douche
• 42:24
  out
• 42:24
  of
• 42:24
  water
• 42:24
  and
• 42:25
  boric
• 42:25
  acid
• 42:26
  and
• 42:26
  it
• 42:27
  changed
• 42:27
  my
• 42:27
  life.
• 42:29
  And
• 42:30
  so
• 42:32
  that
• 42:32
  product
• 42:33
  we
• 42:33
  found
• 42:33
  that
• 42:34
  boric
• 42:34
  acid
• 42:34
  does
• 42:34
  not
• 42:35
  kill
• 42:35
  lactobacilli,
• 42:36
  which
• 42:36
  is
• 42:36
  fabulous.
• 42:38
  You
• 42:38
  can,
• 42:38
  but
• 42:38
  it
• 42:38
  does
• 42:39
  get
• 42:39
  rid
• 42:39
  of
• 42:39
  the
• 42:40
  unsavory
• 42:40
  things
• 42:41
  that
• 42:41
  we
• 42:41
  don't
• 42:41
  want.
• 42:43
  So
• 42:43
  I
• 42:43
  felt
• 42:44
  compelled
• 42:45
  to
• 42:45
  bring
• 42:45
  that
• 42:46
  product
• 42:46
  to
• 42:46
  market
• 42:46
  because
• 42:47
  it
• 42:47
  was
• 42:47
  the
• 42:47
  way
• 42:47
  PhD
• 42:48
  was
• 42:49
  founded
• 42:49
  and
• 42:49
  born.
• 42:50
  I
• 42:50
  knew
• 42:50
  how
• 42:51
  amazing
• 42:51
  this
• 42:51
  product
• 42:52
  works.
• 42:54
  So
• 42:54
  we
• 42:54
  hope
• 42:55
  to
• 42:55
  be
• 42:55
  doing
• 42:55
  some
• 42:55
  research
• 42:56
  on
• 42:56
  that
• 42:57
  product
• 42:57
  to
• 42:58
  prove,
• 42:59
  unlike
• 42:59
  the
• 43:00
  other
• 43:00
  douches
• 43:01
  that
• 43:01
  are
• 43:01
  on
• 43:01
  the
• 43:01
  market
• 43:01
  that
• 43:02
  aren't
• 43:02
  recommended,
• 43:03
  that
• 43:04
  that
• 43:04
  douching
• 43:04
  with
• 43:04
  a
• 43:04
  boric
• 43:05
  acid
• 43:05
  product
• 43:05
  actually
• 43:06
  has
• 43:06
  substantial
• 43:07
  benefits.
• 43:08
  I
• 43:09
  mean,
• 43:09
  I've
• 43:10
  witnessed
• 43:11
  it
• 43:11
  firsthand
• 43:11
  and
• 43:12
  so
• 43:12
  have
• 43:12
  millions
• 43:13
  of
• 43:13
  other
• 43:13
  women.
• 43:15
  So
• 43:15
  I
• 43:16
  would
• 43:16
  say
• 43:16
  if
• 43:16
  you're
• 43:17
  going
• 43:17
  to
• 43:17
  douche,
• 43:17
  don't
• 43:18
  use
• 43:19
  the
• 43:19
  perfumed
• 43:21
  ones
• 43:21
  that
• 43:23
  have
• 43:23
  the
• 43:24
  data
• 43:24
  that
• 43:24
  demonstrates
• 43:25
  that
• 43:25
  it's
• 43:25
  not
• 43:25
  safe,
• 43:26
  but
• 43:26
  use
• 43:26
  one
• 43:27
  that
• 43:27
  has
• 43:27
  boric
• 43:27
  acid.
• 43:28
  Because
• 43:29
  boric
• 43:29
  acid
• 43:29
  has
• 43:30
  actually
• 43:30
  been
• 43:31
  dozens
• 43:31
  of
• 43:32
  clinical
• 43:32
  trials
• 43:32
  done
• 43:32
  on
• 43:33
  it
• 43:33
  and
• 43:33
  for
• 43:33
  its
• 43:33
  safety
• 43:34
  and
• 43:34
  use
• 43:34
  and
• 43:35
  vaginal
• 43:35
  health.
• 43:36
  So
• 43:36
  in
• 43:37
  general,
• 43:37
  is
• 43:37
  fragrance
• 43:38
  bad
• 43:38
  for
• 43:38
  your
• 43:39
  vagina?
• 43:40
  So
• 43:40
  the
• 43:41
  synthetic
• 43:41
  fragrances
• 43:42
  that
• 43:42
  are
• 43:43
  typically
• 43:43
  inducious,
• 43:44
  not
• 43:44
  a
• 43:44
  good
• 43:44
  thing,
• 43:45
  that
• 43:45
  actually
• 43:47
  can
• 43:47
  have
• 43:48
  the
• 43:48
  opposite
• 43:48
  effect
• 43:48
  of
• 43:49
  what
• 43:49
  you're
• 43:49
  trying
• 43:49
  to
• 43:50
  achieve.
• 43:50
  And
• 43:50
  even
• 43:51
  in
• 43:52
  the
• 43:52
  washes
• 43:53
  and
• 43:53
  everything
• 43:53
  that
• 43:54
  we
• 43:54
  use,
• 43:54
  just
• 43:54
  make
• 43:55
  sure
• 43:55
  it's
• 43:55
  a
• 43:55
  plant
• 43:56
  based
• 43:58
  version
• 43:58
  of
• 43:58
  that
• 43:59
  like
• 43:59
  ours
• 44:00
  is.
• 44:01
  And
• 44:01
  there's
• 44:02
  some
• 44:02
  other
• 44:02
  brands
• 44:02
  that
• 44:03
  have
• 44:03
  that
• 44:03
  too.
• 44:03
  So
• 44:03
  just
• 44:04
  be
• 44:04
  careful
• 44:04
  about
• 44:04
  any
• 44:04
  scents
• 44:05
  that
• 44:05
  you
• 44:06
  use
• 44:06
  down
• 44:06
  there
• 44:07
  that
• 44:07
  It's
• 44:07
  a
• 44:07
  natural
• 44:08
  form
• 44:09
  and
• 44:09
  not
• 44:10
  a
• 44:10
  synthetic.
• 44:10
  Okay,
• 44:11
  and
• 44:12
  what
• 44:12
  advice
• 44:13
  would
• 44:13
  you
• 44:13
  give
• 44:14
  your
• 44:14
  25
• 44:15
  year
• 44:15
  old
• 44:15
  self?
• 44:16
  You
• 44:17
  know,
• 44:17
  it's
• 44:18
  so
• 44:18
  funny
• 44:18
  you
• 44:18
  brought
• 44:18
  this
• 44:18
  up
• 44:19
  because
• 44:19
  I
• 44:19
  was
• 44:19
  thinking
• 44:20
  about
• 44:20
  this
• 44:20
  on
• 44:20
  the
• 44:21
  plane.
• 44:23
  One
• 44:23
  plane
• 44:23
  I've
• 44:23
  been
• 44:23
  on
• 44:24
  this
• 44:24
  week.
• 44:24
  I
• 44:24
  don't
• 44:24
  remember
• 44:24
  they've
• 44:25
  been
• 44:25
  students
• 44:25
  on
• 44:26
  so
• 44:26
  many.
• 44:28
  But
• 44:29
  you
• 44:29
  know,
• 44:29
  I
• 44:30
  kind
• 44:30
  of
• 44:30
  took
• 44:30
  a
• 44:30
  step
• 44:31
  back
• 44:33
  over
• 44:33
  the
• 44:33
  past
• 44:34
  couple
• 44:34
  of
• 44:34
  days
• 44:34
  of
• 44:35
  what
• 44:37
  we've
• 44:37
  been
• 44:37
  able
• 44:37
  to
• 44:38
  accomplish
• 44:39
  and
• 44:39
  getting
• 44:39
  a
• 44:39
  law
• 44:40
  amended.
• 44:40
  You
• 44:41
  know,
• 44:41
  I
• 44:41
  mean,
• 44:42
  and
• 44:42
  I
• 44:43
  was
• 44:43
  thinking
• 44:43
  if
• 44:43
  I,
• 44:44
  if
• 44:44
  somebody
• 44:45
  would
• 44:45
  have
• 44:45
  told
• 44:45
  me
• 44:45
  this,
• 44:47
  you
• 44:47
  know,
• 44:47
  even
• 44:47
  10
• 44:48
  years
• 44:48
  ago,
• 44:48
  I
• 44:49
  would
• 44:49
  have,
• 44:50
  I
• 44:50
  would
• 44:50
  have,
• 44:50
  wouldn't
• 44:50
  have
• 44:50
  believed
• 44:51
  them.
• 44:52
  That
• 44:53
  we
• 44:53
  can
• 44:53
  do
• 44:53
  really
• 44:54
  hard
• 44:54
  things.
• 44:55
  And
• 44:56
  I
• 44:56
  think
• 44:56
  that's
• 44:56
  one
• 44:57
  of
• 44:57
  the
• 44:58
  gifts
• 44:59
  that
• 44:59
  we
• 44:59
  have
• 45:00
  at
• 45:00
  our
• 45:00
  age,
• 45:01
  at
• 45:01
  this
• 45:01
  stage
• 45:02
  in
• 45:02
  our
• 45:02
  lives,
• 45:03
  being
• 45:03
  in
• 45:03
  our
• 45:04
  mid
• 45:04
  lives,
• 45:05
  is
• 45:05
  that
• 45:06
  wisdom
• 45:07
  and
• 45:07
  that
• 45:07
  confidence
• 45:08
  and
• 45:08
  that
• 45:09
  ability
• 45:10
  to
• 45:10
  really
• 45:11
  do
• 45:11
  things
• 45:12
  that
• 45:12
  we
• 45:12
  never
• 45:12
  in
• 45:12
  a
• 45:13
  million
• 45:13
  years
• 45:13
  could
• 45:13
  have
• 45:13
  imagined
• 45:14
  us
• 45:14
  doing
• 45:15
  before
• 45:17
  that
• 45:18
  it's
• 45:18
  possible.
• 45:19
  You
• 45:19
  know,
• 45:19
  anything
• 45:20
  is
• 45:20
  possible
• 45:20
  if
• 45:21
  you
• 45:21
  roll
• 45:22
  up
• 45:22
  your
• 45:22
  sleeves.
• 45:23
  I
• 45:23
  didn't
• 45:23
  know
• 45:24
  how
• 45:24
  to
• 45:24
  get
• 45:24
  a
• 45:24
  law
• 45:24
  amended.
• 45:26
  Now
• 45:27
  you
• 45:27
  do.
• 45:27
  I
• 45:28
  do.
• 45:28
  Right.
• 45:29
  But
• 45:29
  I'm
• 45:29
  like,
• 45:30
  I'm
• 45:31
  gonna
• 45:32
  figure
• 45:32
  this
• 45:32
  out.
• 45:32
  Like,
• 45:33
  I
• 45:33
  can't
• 45:33
  sit
• 45:34
  back
• 45:34
  and
• 45:34
  allow
• 45:35
  this
• 45:35
  to
• 45:35
  happen.
• 45:35
  I
• 45:35
  have
• 45:36
  to
• 45:36
  have
• 45:36
  to
• 45:37
  save
• 45:37
  it
• 45:38
  so
• 45:39
  we
• 45:39
  can
• 45:40
  do
• 45:40
  hard
• 45:40
  things.
• 45:40
  And
• 45:41
  it's
• 45:41
  have
• 45:42
  faith
• 45:42
  and
• 45:42
  confidence
• 45:43
  in
• 45:43
  yourself
• 45:44
  because
• 45:44
  it's
• 45:45
  in
• 45:45
  here.
• 45:45
  We
• 45:46
  just
• 45:46
  have
• 45:46
  to
• 45:46
  believe,
• 45:46
  believe
• 45:47
  it.
• 45:47
  We
• 45:47
  have
• 45:47
  to
• 45:47
  believe
• 45:48
  it,
• 45:48
  we
• 45:48
  have
• 45:48
  to
• 45:48
  unlock
• 45:48
  it
• 45:49
  and
• 45:49
  we
• 45:49
  have
• 45:49
  to
• 45:49
  put
• 45:49
  it
• 45:50
  out
• 45:50
  in
• 45:50
  the
• 45:50
  world,
• 45:51
  you
• 45:51
  know,
• 45:51
  and
• 45:52
  that
• 45:52
  fear
• 45:52
  just
• 45:53
  has
• 45:53
  to
• 45:53
  be.
• 45:53
  I
• 45:53
  mean,
• 45:53
  it's
• 45:54
  so
• 45:54
  hard.
• 45:55
  I
• 45:55
  understand
• 45:55
  that
• 45:56
  fear
• 45:56
  is,
• 45:57
  can
• 45:57
  be
• 45:57
  crippling,
• 45:58
  you
• 45:58
  know,
• 45:58
  and
• 45:58
  we've,
• 45:59
  we
• 45:59
  all
• 45:59
  have
• 45:59
  it
• 46:00
  to
• 46:00
  some
• 46:00
  degree,
• 46:01
  but
• 46:01
  it's
• 46:01
  like
• 46:02
  at
• 46:02
  some
• 46:02
  point
• 46:02
  you
• 46:02
  just
• 46:03
  have
• 46:03
  to
• 46:03
  be
• 46:03
  like,
• 46:03
  fuck
• 46:03
  it.
• 46:04
  Right,
• 46:04
  Right,
• 46:05
  Absolutely.
• 46:05
  Okay.
• 46:06
  So
• 46:06
  is
• 46:07
  Xavier
• 46:07
  your
• 46:08
  producer?
• 46:08
  Yes.
• 46:09
  Okay.
• 46:09
  While
• 46:09
  you
• 46:10
  were
• 46:10
  out
• 46:10
  of
• 46:10
  the
• 46:10
  room,
• 46:10
  he
• 46:11
  and
• 46:11
  I
• 46:11
  were
• 46:11
  having
• 46:11
  a
• 46:11
  chat
• 46:12
  and
• 46:13
  I
• 46:13
  was
• 46:13
  telling
• 46:13
  him
• 46:13
  how
• 46:13
  brave
• 46:14
  he
• 46:14
  was
• 46:14
  to
• 46:14
  move
• 46:15
  to
• 46:15
  Hollywood
• 46:16
  from
• 46:16
  the
• 46:16
  small
• 46:16
  town
• 46:17
  where
• 46:17
  he's
• 46:17
  from.
• 46:18
  And
• 46:19
  he
• 46:20
  talked
• 46:21
  about,
• 46:21
  I
• 46:21
  was
• 46:21
  like,
• 46:21
  well,
• 46:21
  you
• 46:22
  took
• 46:22
  a
• 46:22
  leap
• 46:22
  of
• 46:22
  faith.
• 46:22
  And
• 46:23
  we
• 46:23
  started
• 46:23
  talking
• 46:23
  about
• 46:23
  that
• 46:23
  and
• 46:24
  I
• 46:24
  said,
• 46:24
  well,
• 46:24
  my
• 46:24
  motto
• 46:25
  is
• 46:25
  faith
• 46:25
  over
• 46:25
  fear.
• 46:26
  And
• 46:26
  it
• 46:27
  has
• 46:27
  been
• 46:27
  because,
• 46:29
  you
• 46:29
  know,
• 46:30
  it's
• 46:30
  like
• 46:30
  faith
• 46:31
  and
• 46:31
  fear
• 46:31
  are
• 46:31
  both.
• 46:32
  And
• 46:32
  I
• 46:32
  was,
• 46:32
  there's
• 46:32
  this
• 46:33
  quote
• 46:33
  and
• 46:34
  I
• 46:34
  can't,
• 46:34
  I'm
• 46:34
  going
• 46:34
  to
• 46:34
  butcher
• 46:35
  it
• 46:35
  completely.
• 46:35
  But
• 46:35
  I'll
• 46:36
  give
• 46:36
  you
• 46:36
  the
• 46:37
  Cliff
• 46:38
  Notes
• 46:38
  version.
• 46:40
  Faith
• 46:40
  and
• 46:40
  fear
• 46:40
  are
• 46:40
  both
• 46:41
  unseen,
• 46:42
  untangible
• 46:44
  things.
• 46:44
  So
• 46:44
  you
• 46:45
  choose
• 46:45
  which
• 46:45
  one
• 46:46
  you're
• 46:46
  going
• 46:46
  to
• 46:46
  give
• 46:46
  power
• 46:46
  to.
• 46:47
  And
• 46:48
  I
• 46:49
  choose
• 46:49
  faith
• 46:50
  every
• 46:50
  Single
• 46:51
  day.
• 46:52
  That's
• 46:52
  a
• 46:52
  great
• 46:53
  motto
• 46:53
  to
• 46:53
  live
• 46:53
  by.
• 46:54
  That's
• 46:54
  a
• 46:54
  great
• 46:54
  motto
• 46:54
  to
• 46:55
  live
• 46:55
  by.
• 46:55
  So
• 46:55
  this
• 46:55
  kind
• 46:56
  of
• 46:56
  ties
• 46:56
  into
• 46:56
  it.
• 46:56
  How
• 46:57
  are
• 46:57
  you
• 46:57
  living
• 46:57
  iconically
• 46:58
  right
• 46:59
  now?
• 46:59
  Okay.
• 47:00
  Wow.
• 47:01
  How
• 47:01
  am
• 47:01
  I
• 47:01
  living
• 47:02
  iconically?
• 47:03
  I
• 47:03
  have
• 47:03
  to
• 47:04
  say
• 47:04
  that
• 47:05
  doing
• 47:05
  things
• 47:06
  I
• 47:06
  never
• 47:06
  thought
• 47:06
  were
• 47:07
  possible,
• 47:07
  like
• 47:09
  being
• 47:09
  an
• 47:09
  advocate
• 47:10
  for
• 47:10
  women,
• 47:11
  it's
• 47:11
  now,
• 47:13
  it's
• 47:13
  something
• 47:13
  I,
• 47:14
  I'm
• 47:14
  proud
• 47:14
  of
• 47:15
  that
• 47:16
  it's,
• 47:16
  I'll
• 47:17
  have
• 47:17
  to
• 47:17
  say
• 47:17
  it's
• 47:17
  hard.
• 47:18
  I
• 47:18
  mean
• 47:19
  it.
• 47:19
  The
• 47:20
  past
• 47:20
  few
• 47:20
  months
• 47:20
  have
• 47:21
  been
• 47:21
  exceptionally
• 47:22
  hard
• 47:23
  trying
• 47:23
  to
• 47:24
  get
• 47:24
  this
• 47:24
  across
• 47:24
  the
• 47:24
  finish
• 47:25
  line.
• 47:25
  I
• 47:25
  won't
• 47:25
  go
• 47:25
  into
• 47:25
  detail,
• 47:26
  but
• 47:26
  there's
• 47:26
  been
• 47:27
  a
• 47:27
  lot
• 47:27
  of
• 47:28
  obstacles
• 47:28
  that
• 47:29
  have
• 47:29
  popped
• 47:29
  up
• 47:29
  along
• 47:29
  the
• 47:30
  way
• 47:30
  that
• 47:30
  just
• 47:30
  really
• 47:30
  made.
• 47:31
  Make
• 47:31
  me
• 47:31
  shake
• 47:31
  my
• 47:32
  head
• 47:32
  and
• 47:32
  wonder
• 47:32
  what
• 47:32
  kind
• 47:33
  of
• 47:33
  world
• 47:33
  we're
• 47:33
  living
• 47:33
  in.
• 47:33
  But
• 47:35
  so
• 47:36
  I,
• 47:36
  I
• 47:37
  feel
• 47:37
  like
• 47:37
  I'm
• 47:37
  being
• 47:38
  that
• 47:38
  women's
• 47:39
  advocate
• 47:39
  that
• 47:39
  I
• 47:40
  never
• 47:40
  thought
• 47:41
  would
• 47:41
  be
• 47:41
  part
• 47:42
  of
• 47:42
  my,
• 47:43
  my
• 47:43
  DNA
• 47:44
  and
• 47:44
  my
• 47:44
  makeup.
• 47:44
  But
• 47:44
  it's
• 47:45
  become
• 47:46
  a
• 47:46
  huge
• 47:46
  part
• 47:47
  of
• 47:47
  who
• 47:47
  I
• 47:47
  am.
• 47:47
  And
• 47:48
  now
• 47:49
  that
• 47:49
  I've
• 47:49
  been
• 47:49
  successful,
• 47:50
  I
• 47:50
  feel
• 47:50
  an
• 47:51
  obligation
• 47:52
  to
• 47:52
  continue
• 47:52
  doing
• 47:53
  that.
• 47:53
  So
• 47:54
  I
• 47:55
  think
• 47:55
  that's
• 47:55
  part
• 47:55
  of,
• 47:56
  of
• 47:56
  what
• 47:57
  that
• 47:58
  means
• 47:58
  for
• 47:58
  me
• 47:58
  at
• 47:58
  this
• 47:58
  stage
• 47:59
  right
• 47:59
  now.
• 47:59
  That
• 48:00
  is
• 48:00
  great.
• 48:01
  And
• 48:02
  on
• 48:02
  the
• 48:02
  iconic
• 48:02
  midlife,
• 48:03
  we
• 48:03
  like
• 48:03
  to
• 48:03
  play
• 48:03
  games.
• 48:04
  Are
• 48:04
  you
• 48:04
  down
• 48:05
  for
• 48:05
  a
• 48:05
  game?
• 48:05
  I'm
• 48:06
  down
• 48:06
  for
• 48:06
  it.
• 48:06
  Okay,
• 48:07
  great.
• 48:07
  So
• 48:07
  this
• 48:08
  game
• 48:08
  is
• 48:08
  going
• 48:08
  to
• 48:09
  be
• 48:09
  called
• 48:09
  and
• 48:09
  put
• 48:10
  the
• 48:10
  glasses
• 48:10
  on
• 48:10
  for
• 48:11
  this
• 48:11
  one.
• 48:14
  I
• 48:15
  feel.
• 48:15
  Yeah.
• 48:17
  All
• 48:17
  right,
• 48:17
  so
• 48:18
  it's
• 48:18
  called
• 48:18
  fact
• 48:18
  or
• 48:19
  femme
• 48:19
  myth.
• 48:20
  Okay.
• 48:20
  It's
• 48:21
  going
• 48:21
  to
• 48:21
  be
• 48:21
  a
• 48:21
  rapid
• 48:21
  fire
• 48:22
  game
• 48:22
  and
• 48:22
  basically
• 48:23
  you
• 48:24
  say
• 48:24
  if
• 48:24
  it's
• 48:25
  fact
• 48:25
  or
• 48:26
  if
• 48:26
  you
• 48:26
  need
• 48:26
  to
• 48:27
  set
• 48:27
  the
• 48:27
  record
• 48:27
  straight
• 48:28
  and
• 48:28
  say
• 48:28
  it's
• 48:28
  a
• 48:28
  myth.
• 48:29
  Okay,
• 48:29
  so
• 48:30
  okay,
• 48:30
  here
• 48:31
  we
• 48:31
  go.
• 48:32
  Number
• 48:33
  one,
• 48:33
  you
• 48:34
  should
• 48:34
  wash
• 48:34
  your
• 48:34
  vagina
• 48:35
  with
• 48:35
  soap
• 48:36
  every
• 48:36
  day.
• 48:37
  I
• 48:37
  would
• 48:38
  say
• 48:38
  that's
• 48:38
  somewhere
• 48:38
  in
• 48:39
  between.
• 48:40
  Explain
• 48:41
  please.
• 48:41
  Yes.
• 48:42
  Because
• 48:43
  we
• 48:44
  have
• 48:45
  odor
• 48:45
  causing
• 48:46
  bacteria
• 48:48
  down
• 48:48
  there
• 48:48
  in
• 48:49
  our
• 48:49
  own
• 48:50
  on
• 48:50
  our
• 48:50
  vulva,
• 48:52
  just
• 48:52
  like
• 48:52
  we
• 48:52
  do
• 48:53
  in
• 48:53
  our
• 48:53
  armpits.
• 48:54
  So
• 48:55
  that's
• 48:56
  up
• 48:56
  to
• 48:56
  you.
• 48:56
  If
• 48:56
  you're
• 48:57
  okay
• 48:57
  with
• 48:57
  having
• 48:58
  some
• 48:58
  odor
• 48:58
  causing
• 48:59
  bacteria,
• 49:00
  you
• 49:00
  know,
• 49:02
  you
• 49:02
  know,
• 49:02
  on
• 49:03
  your
• 49:03
  vulva
• 49:03
  just
• 49:04
  like
• 49:04
  you
• 49:04
  do
• 49:04
  in
• 49:04
  your
• 49:04
  pits,
• 49:04
  then
• 49:05
  you,
• 49:05
  you
• 49:05
  do
• 49:05
  you
• 49:06
  boo
• 49:06
  is
• 49:06
  what
• 49:06
  I
• 49:06
  say.
• 49:08
  But
• 49:08
  as
• 49:09
  far
• 49:09
  as
• 49:09
  internal
• 49:10
  washing
• 49:11
  the
• 49:11
  vagina,
• 49:12
  absolutely
• 49:12
  not.
• 49:13
  You
• 49:13
  do
• 49:14
  not
• 49:14
  put
• 49:14
  soap
• 49:14
  up
• 49:15
  inside.
• 49:15
  There
• 49:15
  because
• 49:15
  that
• 49:16
  can
• 49:16
  throw
• 49:16
  the
• 49:16
  ph
• 49:16
  off.
• 49:16
  Right?
• 49:17
  Okay.
• 49:17
  Yes.
• 49:18
  So
• 49:18
  no
• 49:18
  soap
• 49:19
  inside
• 49:19
  the
• 49:19
  vagina.
• 49:19
  No.
• 49:20
  Okay.
• 49:23
  Number
• 49:24
  two,
• 49:24
  vaginal
• 49:25
  odor
• 49:25
  means
• 49:26
  something
• 49:26
  is
• 49:26
  wrong.
• 49:29
  Typically.
• 49:30
  Yes.
• 49:31
  That,
• 49:31
  that
• 49:31
  is
• 49:32
  a
• 49:33
  fact.
• 49:33
  That
• 49:33
  something
• 49:34
  is
• 49:34
  not
• 49:34
  quite
• 49:35
  right.
• 49:37
  Back
• 49:37
  to
• 49:38
  one
• 49:38
  of.
• 49:38
  We
• 49:38
  were
• 49:39
  talking
• 49:39
  about
• 49:40
  yeast
• 49:40
  and
• 49:40
  bv.
• 49:41
  There
• 49:42
  are
• 49:44
  many,
• 49:44
  many
• 49:44
  times.
• 49:44
  And
• 49:45
  you'll
• 49:45
  have
• 49:45
  health
• 49:45
  healthcare
• 49:46
  providers
• 49:46
  will
• 49:46
  tell
• 49:46
  me
• 49:47
  this,
• 49:47
  that
• 49:48
  I
• 49:48
  have
• 49:48
  A
• 49:48
  patient
• 49:49
  who
• 49:50
  is
• 49:50
  not
• 49:50
  testing
• 49:51
  for
• 49:51
  anything,
• 49:51
  but
• 49:52
  something's
• 49:52
  just
• 49:52
  not
• 49:53
  quite
• 49:53
  right.
• 49:54
  And
• 49:55
  it's
• 49:55
  not
• 49:56
  trichomoniasis,
• 49:57
  it's
• 49:57
  not
• 49:58
  bv,
• 49:58
  it's
• 49:58
  not
• 49:58
  yeast.
• 49:59
  Like,
• 49:59
  I
• 49:59
  can't
• 49:59
  figure
• 50:00
  it
• 50:00
  out,
• 50:01
  but
• 50:01
  something's
• 50:02
  not
• 50:02
  right.
• 50:02
  And
• 50:02
  as
• 50:02
  women,
• 50:03
  we
• 50:03
  know
• 50:03
  that,
• 50:04
  like,
• 50:04
  we
• 50:04
  just
• 50:04
  know,
• 50:05
  like,
• 50:05
  this
• 50:06
  does
• 50:06
  not
• 50:06
  quite
• 50:06
  feel
• 50:07
  right.
• 50:07
  And
• 50:07
  that
• 50:08
  saying,
• 50:08
  your
• 50:08
  body
• 50:09
  doesn't
• 50:09
  lie,
• 50:10
  I
• 50:10
  love,
• 50:11
  because
• 50:11
  I
• 50:12
  have
• 50:12
  to
• 50:12
  remind
• 50:13
  myself
• 50:13
  of
• 50:13
  that
• 50:14
  oftentimes.
• 50:16
  So,
• 50:16
  yes,
• 50:17
  that
• 50:17
  generally
• 50:17
  means
• 50:17
  something
• 50:18
  is
• 50:18
  not
• 50:18
  quite
• 50:18
  right
• 50:18
  because
• 50:19
  your
• 50:19
  vagina
• 50:19
  should
• 50:19
  not
• 50:21
  smell
• 50:21
  malodorous.
• 50:22
  It
• 50:23
  should
• 50:23
  have
• 50:23
  its
• 50:23
  own.
• 50:24
  Every
• 50:25
  vagina
• 50:25
  smells
• 50:26
  differently.
• 50:27
  You
• 50:27
  kind
• 50:27
  of
• 50:27
  know
• 50:28
  what
• 50:28
  your
• 50:28
  smell's
• 50:28
  like.
• 50:29
  If
• 50:30
  you
• 50:30
  don't,
• 50:30
  you
• 50:30
  need
• 50:30
  to
• 50:31
  figure
• 50:31
  out
• 50:31
  what
• 50:31
  normal
• 50:32
  is
• 50:32
  for
• 50:32
  you
• 50:34
  so
• 50:34
  that
• 50:34
  when
• 50:34
  it's
• 50:34
  off,
• 50:35
  you
• 50:35
  need
• 50:36
  to
• 50:37
  seek
• 50:37
  some
• 50:37
  help
• 50:38
  for
• 50:38
  that.
• 50:38
  Okay.
• 50:39
  So
• 50:39
  generally
• 50:40
  speaking,
• 50:40
  just
• 50:40
  so
• 50:41
  women
• 50:41
  know
• 50:42
  now,
• 50:42
  this
• 50:42
  is.
• 50:42
  It
• 50:43
  could
• 50:43
  be
• 50:43
  different.
• 50:43
  So
• 50:44
  you
• 50:44
  should
• 50:44
  always
• 50:44
  go
• 50:44
  to
• 50:44
  your
• 50:44
  doctor.
• 50:45
  But
• 50:45
  generally
• 50:46
  speaking,
• 50:46
  is
• 50:46
  there
• 50:47
  odor?
• 50:47
  With
• 50:47
  yeast
• 50:48
  infections,
• 50:50
  there
• 50:50
  is
• 50:50
  not.
• 50:51
  So
• 50:51
  usually
• 50:51
  it's
• 50:51
  BV.
• 50:53
  And
• 50:53
  STDs
• 50:54
  could
• 50:54
  have
• 50:54
  an
• 50:54
  odor
• 50:55
  as
• 50:55
  well.
• 50:55
  That
• 50:55
  is
• 50:56
  correct.
• 50:56
  Okay.
• 50:56
  And
• 50:57
  always
• 50:57
  go
• 50:57
  get
• 50:57
  checked
• 50:58
  out
• 50:58
  by
• 50:58
  your
• 50:58
  doctor,
• 50:58
  ladies.
• 50:59
  Indeed.
• 51:00
  Right.
• 51:01
  Number
• 51:01
  three,
• 51:02
  you
• 51:02
  can
• 51:02
  throw
• 51:02
  off
• 51:03
  your
• 51:03
  vaginal
• 51:04
  PH
• 51:04
  by
• 51:05
  wearing
• 51:05
  tight
• 51:06
  pants.
• 51:06
  Absolutely.
• 51:07
  Is
• 51:07
  that
• 51:08
  right?
• 51:08
  Yes,
• 51:09
  because
• 51:10
  it
• 51:10
  needs
• 51:10
  to
• 51:10
  breathe.
• 51:11
  And
• 51:13
  sometimes
• 51:13
  if
• 51:14
  we're
• 51:14
  wearing
• 51:14
  tight
• 51:14
  pants
• 51:17
  like
• 51:17
  that,
• 51:17
  don't
• 51:18
  breathe.
• 51:18
  Like
• 51:18
  leather
• 51:19
  or
• 51:20
  pleather,
• 51:20
  it's
• 51:21
  even
• 51:21
  worse.
• 51:22
  It
• 51:22
  can
• 51:23
  cause
• 51:25
  the
• 51:25
  odor
• 51:26
  causing
• 51:27
  bacteria
• 51:27
  to
• 51:27
  grow
• 51:27
  internally.
• 51:28
  Okay.
• 51:29
  BV
• 51:30
  and
• 51:30
  yeast
• 51:31
  infections
• 51:31
  are
• 51:32
  basically
• 51:32
  the
• 51:32
  same
• 51:33
  thing.
• 51:33
  No,
• 51:33
  not
• 51:34
  at
• 51:34
  all.
• 51:34
  Completely
• 51:35
  different
• 51:35
  organisms
• 51:36
  that
• 51:36
  cause
• 51:37
  each.
• 51:37
  One
• 51:37
  is
• 51:38
  candidiasis
• 51:39
  and
• 51:39
  one
• 51:39
  is
• 51:41
  a
• 51:42
  bacteria
• 51:42
  that
• 51:42
  causes
• 51:43
  bv,
• 51:44
  which
• 51:44
  I'm
• 51:45
  completely
• 51:45
  drawing
• 51:46
  a
• 51:46
  blank
• 51:46
  on
• 51:46
  right
• 51:46
  now.
• 51:49
  And
• 51:49
  I
• 51:49
  shouldn't
• 51:49
  know
• 51:49
  this.
• 51:50
  It's
• 51:50
  part
• 51:50
  of
• 51:50
  my
• 51:50
  life.
• 51:51
  But
• 51:52
  anyway,
• 51:52
  back
• 51:52
  to
• 51:52
  what
• 51:53
  we
• 51:53
  were
• 51:53
  saying
• 51:53
  about
• 51:53
  menopause.
• 51:55
  Exactly.
• 51:56
  You
• 51:56
  know,
• 51:56
  there
• 51:56
  it
• 51:57
  is.
• 51:57
  It's
• 51:57
  like.
• 51:58
  What's
• 51:58
  that
• 51:58
  word?
• 52:00
  Lord,
• 52:01
  no.
• 52:01
  That's
• 52:02
  funny.
• 52:03
  Okay.
• 52:04
  Midlife
• 52:05
  hormonal
• 52:05
  changes
• 52:06
  can
• 52:06
  impact
• 52:07
  vaginal
• 52:08
  pH
• 52:09
  100%.
• 52:10
  Okay.
• 52:10
  Yes.
• 52:11
  Because
• 52:11
  when
• 52:11
  we
• 52:12
  experience
• 52:12
  fluctuations
• 52:13
  in
• 52:13
  our
• 52:14
  hormones,
• 52:15
  and
• 52:15
  this
• 52:15
  is
• 52:16
  proven
• 52:16
  with
• 52:17
  and
• 52:18
  research
• 52:18
  studies,
• 52:19
  that
• 52:20
  our
• 52:22
  PH
• 52:22
  of
• 52:22
  our
• 52:23
  vagina
• 52:23
  fluctuates
• 52:24
  tremendously.
• 52:26
  So
• 52:27
  back
• 52:28
  to,
• 52:28
  you
• 52:28
  know,
• 52:29
  my
• 52:30
  friends
• 52:30
  who
• 52:30
  think
• 52:30
  something
• 52:31
  crawled
• 52:31
  up
• 52:31
  inside
• 52:31
  of
• 52:31
  them
• 52:31
  and
• 52:32
  died
• 52:33
  when
• 52:33
  they
• 52:33
  started
• 52:34
  experiencing
• 52:34
  menopause
• 52:35
  symptoms,
• 52:35
  it's
• 52:36
  because
• 52:36
  they're.
• 52:37
  They're
• 52:37
  possibly
• 52:38
  getting
• 52:39
  BV
• 52:39
  or
• 52:40
  an
• 52:41
  imbalance
• 52:42
  because
• 52:42
  of
• 52:42
  their
• 52:43
  fluctuations
• 52:43
  in
• 52:43
  hormones.
• 52:44
  And
• 52:45
  actually,
• 52:45
  the
• 52:45
  same
• 52:45
  thing
• 52:46
  can
• 52:47
  often
• 52:47
  happen
• 52:47
  to
• 52:48
  in
• 52:48
  pregnancy.
• 52:48
  A
• 52:49
  lot
• 52:49
  of
• 52:49
  women
• 52:49
  experience
• 52:50
  BV
• 52:51
  in
• 52:51
  pregnancy.
• 52:52
  And
• 52:53
  by
• 52:53
  the
• 52:53
  way,
• 52:53
  you
• 52:53
  cannot
• 52:53
  use
• 52:54
  boric
• 52:54
  acid
• 52:54
  while
• 52:54
  you're
• 52:55
  Pregnant.
• 52:55
  Okay,
• 52:55
  so
• 52:56
  don't.
• 52:56
  What
• 52:56
  about
• 52:56
  when
• 52:56
  you're
• 52:57
  breastfeeding?
• 52:57
  Yes.
• 52:58
  Okay,
• 53:00
  but
• 53:00
  there's
• 53:01
  been
• 53:01
  no
• 53:01
  research
• 53:02
  done
• 53:03
  with
• 53:03
  pregnancy.
• 53:05
  And
• 53:05
  then
• 53:06
  two,
• 53:06
  a
• 53:06
  lot
• 53:07
  of
• 53:07
  women
• 53:08
  get
• 53:09
  vaginal
• 53:10
  odor
• 53:11
  near
• 53:11
  their
• 53:11
  periods
• 53:12
  and
• 53:12
  that
• 53:12
  could
• 53:13
  be
• 53:13
  due
• 53:13
  to
• 53:13
  the
• 53:13
  fluctuation
• 53:14
  hormones
• 53:14
  or
• 53:15
  the
• 53:16
  actual
• 53:16
  blood
• 53:16
  itself,
• 53:17
  which
• 53:17
  is
• 53:17
  very
• 53:18
  alkaline
• 53:18
  and
• 53:18
  can
• 53:19
  cause
• 53:20
  the
• 53:21
  pH
• 53:21
  to
• 53:21
  become
• 53:22
  off.
• 53:22
  Oh,
• 53:22
  okay,
• 53:23
  interesting.
• 53:24
  Okay,
• 53:24
  I
• 53:25
  have
• 53:25
  heard
• 53:25
  this
• 53:25
  one
• 53:26
  before,
• 53:26
  but
• 53:26
  you
• 53:26
  tell
• 53:26
  me
• 53:26
  if
• 53:27
  this
• 53:27
  is
• 53:27
  true
• 53:27
  or
• 53:27
  not.
• 53:28
  Vaginas
• 53:29
  are
• 53:29
  self
• 53:29
  cleaning.
• 53:30
  So
• 53:31
  they
• 53:31
  are.
• 53:32
  Normally
• 53:33
  when
• 53:33
  everything
• 53:34
  is
• 53:35
  copacetic,
• 53:36
  status
• 53:36
  quo.
• 53:37
  When
• 53:37
  you
• 53:37
  don't
• 53:38
  have
• 53:38
  any
• 53:39
  imbalances
• 53:40
  or
• 53:40
  infections,
• 53:41
  they
• 53:41
  are
• 53:42
  like,
• 53:42
  you
• 53:42
  just
• 53:42
  leave
• 53:43
  it
• 53:43
  alone.
• 53:43
  And
• 53:44
  they're,
• 53:45
  they're
• 53:45
  fine.
• 53:46
  But
• 53:46
  if
• 53:46
  something
• 53:47
  causes
• 53:48
  you
• 53:48
  to
• 53:48
  be
• 53:49
  off,
• 53:49
  whether
• 53:49
  it
• 53:50
  be
• 53:50
  you
• 53:51
  notice
• 53:51
  a
• 53:51
  difference
• 53:52
  or
• 53:52
  a
• 53:52
  change
• 53:54
  in
• 53:55
  your
• 53:55
  discharge
• 53:56
  or
• 53:57
  odor
• 53:57
  or
• 53:58
  something
• 53:58
  to
• 53:58
  that
• 53:58
  effect,
• 53:59
  then
• 54:00
  you
• 54:00
  need
• 54:00
  to
• 54:00
  seek
• 54:02
  advice
• 54:02
  or
• 54:03
  attention
• 54:03
  or
• 54:03
  look
• 54:04
  for
• 54:04
  a
• 54:04
  product
• 54:04
  that
• 54:04
  can
• 54:05
  help.
• 54:05
  But
• 54:06
  yes,
• 54:06
  if
• 54:07
  you're,
• 54:08
  you
• 54:08
  know,
• 54:08
  not
• 54:09
  everybody
• 54:09
  will
• 54:09
  need
• 54:09
  a
• 54:10
  boric
• 54:10
  acid
• 54:10
  suppository.
• 54:11
  If
• 54:12
  they
• 54:12
  have
• 54:12
  never
• 54:13
  have
• 54:13
  an
• 54:13
  issue
• 54:13
  with
• 54:13
  their
• 54:13
  vagina,
• 54:14
  which.
• 54:14
  Yay.
• 54:15
  Use
• 54:15
  this.
• 54:15
  I
• 54:16
  hope
• 54:16
  that's
• 54:16
  you.
• 54:19
  Then
• 54:19
  you
• 54:20
  don't
• 54:20
  have
• 54:20
  to
• 54:20
  do
• 54:21
  anything.
• 54:21
  Your
• 54:21
  vagina
• 54:22
  is
• 54:22
  perfectly
• 54:22
  fine.
• 54:23
  Okay.
• 54:23
  So
• 54:23
  you
• 54:24
  should
• 54:24
  only
• 54:24
  use
• 54:24
  the
• 54:24
  supplements
• 54:25
  if
• 54:25
  you
• 54:25
  find
• 54:26
  that
• 54:26
  there's
• 54:26
  something
• 54:27
  wrong.
• 54:27
  Okay.
• 54:28
  Correct.
• 54:28
  Got
• 54:28
  it,
• 54:29
  Got
• 54:29
  it.
• 54:30
  Okay.
• 54:30
  Eating
• 54:31
  certain
• 54:31
  foods
• 54:32
  can
• 54:32
  affect
• 54:32
  how
• 54:32
  your
• 54:32
  body
• 54:33
  vagina
• 54:33
  smells.
• 54:34
  So
• 54:35
  I
• 54:36
  have
• 54:37
  heard
• 54:37
  that
• 54:37
  there
• 54:38
  is
• 54:38
  some
• 54:38
  research
• 54:39
  that
• 54:40
  pineapple
• 54:41
  can
• 54:42
  cause
• 54:42
  the
• 54:42
  sweetness.
• 54:43
  You
• 54:43
  know,
• 54:45
  I
• 54:47
  have
• 54:47
  to
• 54:47
  look
• 54:48
  deeper
• 54:48
  into
• 54:48
  that
• 54:48
  to
• 54:48
  see
• 54:49
  if
• 54:49
  it's
• 54:49
  clinically
• 54:49
  sound
• 54:50
  research.
• 54:50
  I'm
• 54:50
  not
• 54:51
  sure.
• 54:51
  But
• 54:53
  I
• 54:53
  have
• 54:54
  also
• 54:55
  been
• 54:55
  told,
• 54:55
  anecdotally
• 54:56
  mind
• 54:57
  you,
• 54:57
  that
• 54:58
  heavy
• 54:59
  garlic,
• 55:00
  you
• 55:00
  know,
• 55:03
  meals
• 55:04
  can
• 55:04
  also
• 55:04
  affect
• 55:05
  the
• 55:06
  way
• 55:06
  a
• 55:06
  woman
• 55:07
  smells.
• 55:07
  But
• 55:08
  I'm,
• 55:08
  I
• 55:08
  don't
• 55:08
  know
• 55:09
  that
• 55:09
  there's
• 55:09
  any
• 55:09
  clinical
• 55:10
  evidence
• 55:10
  to
• 55:11
  that.
• 55:11
  So.
• 55:12
  Okay,
• 55:12
  I'd
• 55:12
  say
• 55:13
  dig
• 55:13
  a
• 55:13
  little
• 55:13
  deeper
• 55:14
  on
• 55:14
  that
• 55:14
  one.
• 55:14
  Might
• 55:14
  be
• 55:14
  a
• 55:15
  question
• 55:15
  for
• 55:15
  the
• 55:15
  partner.
• 55:16
  Yes.
• 55:17
  Right.
• 55:17
  There
• 55:18
  you
• 55:18
  go.
• 55:18
  If
• 55:18
  they're
• 55:19
  spending
• 55:19
  time,
• 55:19
  do
• 55:19
  your
• 55:20
  own
• 55:20
  little
• 55:20
  trial.
• 55:21
  Right,
• 55:22
  There
• 55:22
  you
• 55:22
  go.
• 55:22
  Make
• 55:22
  it
• 55:23
  a
• 55:23
  little
• 55:23
  spicy
• 55:23
  on
• 55:24
  first
• 55:24
  Friday
• 55:24
  night.
• 55:24
  Yeah,
• 55:25
  that
• 55:25
  works.
• 55:28
  Okay.
• 55:29
  All
• 55:29
  vaginal
• 55:30
  health
• 55:30
  products
• 55:31
  are
• 55:31
  created
• 55:32
  equal.
• 55:33
  No,
• 55:33
  that
• 55:34
  definitely
• 55:34
  is
• 55:35
  not
• 55:35
  the
• 55:35
  case.
• 55:38
  And
• 55:38
  it's
• 55:39
  been
• 55:40
  very
• 55:40
  interesting
• 55:41
  to
• 55:41
  be
• 55:42
  a
• 55:42
  disruptor
• 55:43
  in
• 55:44
  this
• 55:44
  space
• 55:45
  because
• 55:45
  prior
• 55:46
  to
• 55:46
  us
• 55:46
  it
• 55:46
  was
• 55:46
  really
• 55:47
  the
• 55:47
  legacy
• 55:47
  brands
• 55:48
  that
• 55:48
  have
• 55:48
  been
• 55:48
  around
• 55:49
  forever.
• 55:50
  And
• 55:53
  I
• 55:53
  know
• 55:53
  that
• 55:55
  being
• 55:56
  a
• 55:56
  woman
• 55:56
  owned,
• 55:57
  woman
• 55:57
  run
• 55:58
  company
• 55:58
  who's
• 55:59
  innovating
• 55:59
  in
• 55:59
  this
• 56:00
  space
• 56:00
  because
• 56:01
  it's
• 56:02
  what
• 56:03
  I'm
• 56:03
  called
• 56:03
  to
• 56:03
  do,
• 56:05
  I'm
• 56:05
  coming
• 56:05
  at
• 56:06
  it
• 56:06
  from
• 56:06
  a
• 56:06
  different
• 56:06
  mindset.
• 56:09
  Whereas
• 56:09
  we're
• 56:09
  only
• 56:10
  one
• 56:10
  of
• 56:10
  two
• 56:10
  certified
• 56:11
  woman
• 56:11
  owned
• 56:11
  companies
• 56:12
  in
• 56:12
  the
• 56:12
  entire
• 56:12
  aisle
• 56:13
  at
• 56:13
  a
• 56:13
  grocery
• 56:14
  store
• 56:14
  or
• 56:14
  Target
• 56:14
  or
• 56:15
  Walmart.
• 56:16
  Is
• 56:16
  that
• 56:16
  right?
• 56:16
  Just
• 56:16
  your
• 56:17
  company.
• 56:17
  And
• 56:17
  what's
• 56:17
  the
• 56:18
  other
• 56:18
  company?
• 56:19
  The
• 56:19
  other
• 56:19
  company
• 56:19
  is
• 56:20
  a
• 56:20
  vaginal
• 56:21
  suppository
• 56:22
  company
• 56:22
  that
• 56:22
  makes
• 56:22
  a
• 56:23
  probiotic
• 56:23
  vaginal
• 56:24
  suppository.
• 56:25
  So
• 56:26
  now
• 56:27
  there's
• 56:27
  a
• 56:27
  lot
• 56:27
  of
• 56:27
  woman
• 56:28
  founded
• 56:28
  brands
• 56:29
  that
• 56:29
  have
• 56:29
  now
• 56:29
  been
• 56:29
  acquired
• 56:30
  or
• 56:30
  have
• 56:30
  taken
• 56:30
  on
• 56:31
  funding
• 56:31
  and
• 56:31
  don't
• 56:31
  have
• 56:31
  that
• 56:32
  certified
• 56:32
  woman
• 56:33
  owned
• 56:33
  anymore.
• 56:34
  But
• 56:35
  there's.
• 56:35
  Some
• 56:36
  of
• 56:36
  them
• 56:36
  are
• 56:36
  still
• 56:36
  doing
• 56:36
  great
• 56:37
  things.
• 56:37
  But
• 56:37
  those
• 56:37
  legacy
• 56:38
  brands
• 56:38
  that
• 56:38
  have
• 56:38
  been
• 56:39
  around
• 56:39
  forever
• 56:40
  aren't
• 56:41
  using
• 56:41
  ingredients
• 56:42
  that
• 56:42
  are
• 56:43
  necessarily
• 56:43
  the
• 56:43
  best
• 56:44
  thing
• 56:44
  for
• 56:44
  your
• 56:45
  vaginas,
• 56:45
  like
• 56:46
  the
• 56:46
  scents
• 56:46
  and,
• 56:47
  and
• 56:47
  all
• 56:47
  of
• 56:48
  those
• 56:48
  that
• 56:48
  your,
• 56:48
  your
• 56:49
  health
• 56:49
  care
• 56:49
  providers
• 56:50
  tell
• 56:50
  you
• 56:50
  to
• 56:50
  avoid.
• 56:51
  So
• 56:51
  no,
• 56:51
  they
• 56:51
  are
• 56:51
  not
• 56:52
  created
• 56:52
  equal.
• 56:54
  They're
• 56:54
  created
• 56:55
  cheaply.
• 56:57
  The
• 56:57
  ingredients
• 56:58
  are
• 56:58
  cheap
• 56:58
  and
• 57:00
  they're
• 57:01
  not
• 57:01
  created
• 57:02
  with
• 57:02
  really
• 57:02
  for
• 57:02
  a
• 57:02
  mind
• 57:03
  on
• 57:03
  what's
• 57:03
  best
• 57:03
  for,
• 57:04
  for
• 57:04
  women's
• 57:05
  health.
• 57:05
  So
• 57:06
  a
• 57:06
  lot
• 57:06
  of
• 57:06
  differences.
• 57:07
  Okay.
• 57:08
  Discharge
• 57:09
  is
• 57:09
  always
• 57:09
  a
• 57:10
  bad
• 57:10
  sign.
• 57:11
  No,
• 57:12
  we
• 57:13
  discharge
• 57:13
  normal,
• 57:14
  healthy
• 57:15
  discharge.
• 57:15
  Most
• 57:15
  women
• 57:16
  have
• 57:16
  it
• 57:16
  every
• 57:16
  single
• 57:17
  day.
• 57:18
  And
• 57:19
  it's
• 57:19
  a
• 57:19
  sign
• 57:19
  that,
• 57:20
  you
• 57:20
  know,
• 57:20
  we're,
• 57:20
  we're
• 57:21
  working,
• 57:21
  it's
• 57:22
  working
• 57:22
  like
• 57:22
  it
• 57:22
  should.
• 57:23
  So
• 57:24
  what
• 57:24
  is
• 57:24
  normal,
• 57:25
  healthy
• 57:25
  discharge
• 57:26
  that.
• 57:26
  Is
• 57:26
  different
• 57:26
  for
• 57:27
  every
• 57:27
  single
• 57:27
  person?
• 57:28
  There
• 57:29
  are
• 57:29
  some
• 57:29
  women
• 57:30
  who
• 57:30
  have
• 57:31
  a
• 57:31
  lot
• 57:31
  of
• 57:32
  discharge
• 57:33
  and
• 57:33
  sometimes
• 57:33
  it's
• 57:34
  when
• 57:34
  they're,
• 57:36
  they're
• 57:36
  at
• 57:37
  different
• 57:37
  phases
• 57:37
  in
• 57:37
  their
• 57:37
  cycle.
• 57:39
  Maybe
• 57:39
  sometimes
• 57:39
  when
• 57:39
  they're
• 57:40
  ovulating
• 57:40
  they
• 57:40
  might
• 57:40
  have
• 57:41
  more.
• 57:41
  Just
• 57:42
  depends
• 57:42
  woman
• 57:42
  to
• 57:43
  woman.
• 57:43
  But
• 57:45
  some
• 57:45
  women
• 57:45
  don't
• 57:45
  have
• 57:46
  as
• 57:46
  much.
• 57:47
  You
• 57:48
  know,
• 57:48
  sometimes
• 57:48
  you
• 57:49
  might
• 57:49
  notice
• 57:49
  it
• 57:49
  in
• 57:49
  your
• 57:49
  panties
• 57:51
  that
• 57:51
  it's
• 57:51
  been
• 57:51
  there.
• 57:52
  But
• 57:53
  if
• 57:53
  I
• 57:54
  would
• 57:54
  say
• 57:54
  really
• 57:55
  get
• 57:55
  to
• 57:55
  know
• 57:55
  your
• 57:55
  own
• 57:56
  body
• 57:56
  and
• 57:56
  what
• 57:57
  is
• 57:57
  normal
• 57:58
  for
• 57:58
  you.
• 57:59
  And
• 57:59
  then
• 57:59
  when
• 57:59
  things
• 58:00
  feel
• 58:00
  off,
• 58:00
  when
• 58:00
  the
• 58:01
  color
• 58:01
  changes,
• 58:02
  when
• 58:02
  the
• 58:02
  scent
• 58:03
  changes,
• 58:05
  if
• 58:05
  there's
• 58:06
  itching
• 58:06
  or
• 58:07
  burning,
• 58:08
  that's
• 58:09
  when
• 58:09
  you
• 58:09
  really
• 58:09
  need
• 58:09
  to
• 58:09
  pay
• 58:10
  attention.
• 58:11
  But
• 58:11
  focus
• 58:12
  on
• 58:12
  what's
• 58:12
  normal
• 58:12
  so
• 58:13
  that
• 58:13
  then
• 58:13
  when
• 58:13
  things
• 58:13
  are
• 58:14
  abnormal,
• 58:15
  you
• 58:16
  can
• 58:16
  know
• 58:16
  when
• 58:16
  it's
• 58:17
  not.
• 58:17
  Right?
• 58:18
  Sure.
• 58:19
  Okay.
• 58:20
  And
• 58:20
  last
• 58:20
  one,
• 58:20
  you
• 58:20
  shouldn't
• 58:21
  have
• 58:21
  to
• 58:21
  whisper
• 58:21
  about
• 58:22
  vaginal
• 58:22
  health
• 58:23
  anymore.
• 58:23
  Amen.
• 58:26
  Right?
• 58:27
  Yes.
• 58:27
  We
• 58:28
  need
• 58:28
  to
• 58:28
  make
• 58:28
  vagina
• 58:29
  not
• 58:29
  a
• 58:30
  bad
• 58:30
  word,
• 58:30
  right?
• 58:31
  So
• 58:31
  we
• 58:33
  were
• 58:33
  so
• 58:33
  proud
• 58:34
  like
• 58:34
  two
• 58:34
  or
• 58:35
  three
• 58:35
  weeks
• 58:35
  ago.
• 58:35
  Time
• 58:35
  flies
• 58:36
  when
• 58:36
  you're
• 58:36
  having
• 58:36
  fun.
• 58:37
  We
• 58:37
  had
• 58:38
  a
• 58:38
  billboard
• 58:38
  in
• 58:38
  Times
• 58:39
  Square
• 58:40
  that
• 58:40
  had
• 58:40
  the
• 58:40
  word
• 58:41
  vagina
• 58:41
  on
• 58:41
  it.
• 58:42
  And
• 58:42
  we
• 58:42
  were
• 58:43
  so
• 58:43
  proud
• 58:44
  and
• 58:44
  so
• 58:44
  excited.
• 58:45
  It
• 58:45
  was
• 58:46
  kicking
• 58:46
  off
• 58:46
  our
• 58:46
  campaign
• 58:47
  of
• 58:47
  raise
• 58:47
  your
• 58:47
  vagina
• 58:48
  iq.
• 58:49
  So
• 58:49
  we
• 58:50
  are
• 58:51
  just
• 58:52
  going
• 58:52
  to
• 58:52
  make
• 58:52
  it
• 58:52
  every
• 58:53
  day
• 58:53
  an
• 58:53
  everyday
• 58:54
  word
• 58:54
  for
• 58:54
  people,
• 58:55
  you
• 58:55
  know,
• 58:56
  that
• 58:56
  it's
• 58:56
  okay.
• 58:56
  Say
• 58:57
  the
• 58:57
  word
• 58:57
  vagina
• 58:58
  so
• 58:58
  that
• 58:58
  hopefully
• 58:59
  the
• 58:59
  sensors
• 59:00
  and
• 59:00
  everybody
• 59:01
  else
• 59:01
  will
• 59:01
  allow
• 59:01
  us
• 59:01
  to
• 59:02
  really
• 59:02
  then
• 59:03
  have
• 59:03
  conversations
• 59:04
  focused
• 59:05
  around
• 59:05
  women's.
• 59:06
  Health
• 59:06
  and
• 59:07
  normalizing
• 59:08
  them
• 59:09
  so
• 59:09
  that
• 59:09
  we
• 59:09
  can,
• 59:10
  you
• 59:10
  know,
• 59:11
  help
• 59:11
  improve
• 59:11
  the

  the
• 59:15
  goal,
• 59:15
  right?
• 59:15
  That
• 59:16
  is
• 59:16
  the
• 59:16
  goal
• 59:16
  with
