162: Girl Talk with Jess Toolson of Mixhers

What this episode covers

Jess Toolson launched Mixhers at the end of 2019 because of a personal need to find the solution for her period pains. She teamed up with her now business partner, Cody Sanders, creating an all-natural solution to so many women's hormonal problems with drink mixes that taste delicious and transform women's health. What started as a search for personal solutions to her health problems has resulted in a multi-million dollar business, with thousands of monthly subscribers and growing from two to 20 people on her team in under one year. Today Jess and I get to talk about all the ways women suffer in silence with everything from monthly menstrual struggles to menopausal symptoms to sleep problems and libido issues, and why it's SO helpful to not only have these all-natural solutions that Mixers has created, but to have safe spaces for us to TALK about these things and realize, "Hey! I'm not the only one feeling miserable because of this female issue or that female problem." This is a positive, uplifting girl-talk chat that will help you realize you're not alone in whatever female health issues you're facing and will give you some ideas for how to conquer them proactively.   Go to mixhers.com and enter code arrow15 to get 15% off all mixhers products.   Time Stamps: [01:43] - Jess Toolson wants to provide hope to women.
