Cool Things Entrepreneurs Do

Episode 646 is an interview with three young entrepreneurs. Thom met the founders of Hempress Hygienics when he was the Master of Ceremonies for the 2021 San Diego Angel Conference. While this company did not win the cash prize in the angel funding competition, they are huge winners in the world of launching a start up. These women are onto something and everyone should hear their story. Marilyn Austin, Halli Briscoe, and McKenna Avery are smart, determined, and doing work they love.  This interview is the first time Thom has talked about feminine hygiene products (including tampons, pads, and liners) on this podcast.
