CMDZ Open the File | Who Designed Womanhood? - Emma Aiyin on Menstrual Underwear & Design

Command Z is a podcast about design, systems, and the decisions behind the things we use every day.In this episode, sustainable menstrual underwear and period care design take center stage. I sit down with Emma Aiyin, the designer behind Relief, a menstrual underwear brand born after she left Victoria's Secret to rethink how intimate products are made. Together, we unpack the systems behind the products we wear every day: sustainability, communication, comfort, and how design shapes the way we experience our own bodies.This episode isn't only about period underwear. It's about questioning industries, redesigning systems, and understanding how thoughtful design can create meaningful change for people and the planet.This episode is part of Open the File, a series by Command Z Podcast in collaboration with Sur Global.
