10: The Bloody Truth About Women in Business : Part 2 of 2 | Claire Coder

Welcome to part 2 of my conversation with the one and only Claire Coder! A Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient, a Thiel fellow at 26 years old, and the founder and CEO of Aunt Flow, Claire's mission is to make the world better for people with periods. Aunt Flow stocks public bathrooms with freely accessible tampons and pads.  Through Claire's leadership, Aunt Flow launched patented tampons and pad dispensers in over 30,000 bathrooms and has raised over 70 million in venture capital funding.

After getting her period in public without the supplies she needed, at 18 years old, Claire dedicated her life to developing a solution to ensure businesses and schools can sustainably provide quality period products for free in public bathrooms. Since 2016, Aunt Flow has worked with thousands of businesses and schools, including organizations like Google, Princeton University, Netflix, and over 30 professional sports stadiums, to offer freely accessible period product dispensers filled with organic cotton, tampons, and pads. 

Claire's ultimate goal in life is for any menstruator to walk into any bathroom and never need to worry if they start their period because Aunt Flow period Products are freely available. Aunt Flow has donated over 5.3 million organic cotton tampons and pads to menstruating in need since 2021. Claire's story has been featured in Teen Vogue Forbes, and she starred in TLC Girls Starter Season One.
