Fiona Simmonds Fiona Simmonds is the co-founder of Pinkie, the first period care brand designed specifically for young girls, offering non-toxic, perfectly sized pads and thoughtful features like noise-free disposal baggies to support tweens and teens with comfort and confidence. Founded in 2022, Pinkie fills a major gap in the market where products were traditionally sized for adults. Fiona, a Vanderbilt and Wharton graduate with 15+ years in finance and operations, partnered with Sana, a Georgia Tech alum with investment banking, marketing, and PR expertise, to create the first organic pads tailored to this age group, redefining period care through innovation and empowerment. Christian Rasmussen Christian Rasmussen is the founder of MN Nice Ethnobotanicals and among the first to reintroduce Amanita muscaria mushrooms to the U.S. market. His mission stems from personal experience—after a near-fatal battle with benzodiazepine withdrawal, he discovered the healing potential of amanita. Within weeks of microdosing, he experienced a dramatic recovery, transforming what began as a personal lifeline into a larger calling. Today, Christian leads one of the most transparent and educational ethnobotanical companies in the country, dedicated to expanding access to alternative healing and reducing stigma around plant medicine. MN Nice Ethnobotanicals recently relocated from Minnesota to Los Angeles and is preparing for a full rebrand as it continues to grow its impact. Halle Eavelyn Halle Eavelyn is a transformational coach, speaker, author, and tour leader with over 30 years of experience helping women break through limiting patterns and create abundance in money, impact, joy, and freedom. She works with clients through private coaching, online programs, and global sacred journeys, including her signature Egypt Wealth Elevation Retreat. Known for her “Velvet Hammer” style and called a “Spiritual Chiropractor,” Halle is especially passionate about empowering women financially. She highlights that just 50 years ago, women did not have the same access to money as men, and she is dedicated to changing that through education and support.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
