[Ep. 436] Empowering Women and Advancing Period Care with Linda Biggs

This is a special mini-series of the More Money Podcast sponsored by Visa Canada to highlight the latest winners of the Visa She’s Next Grant Program.

For the first episode in this series, I had the pleasure of interviewing Linda Biggs, founder of joni, a Canadian period care brand that aims to revolutionize the industry while working to improve menstrual equity, accessibility and sustainability. Linda shares her unique entrepreneurial journey, which began after a long career in computer science and was inspired by the realization that 1 in 3 women under 25 cannot afford period care. This episode delves into how Linda started the company with her co-founder, how they navigated a challenging launch during COVID, and her best advice for other budding entrepreneurs.
