From Lightbulb Moment to National Movement: Claire Coder on Building Aunt Flow

When Claire Coder unexpectedly started her period at a startup event — with no products in sight — she had a lightbulb moment: why aren’t pads and tampons stocked like toilet paper? That spark led her to leave college at 19 and launch Aunt Flow, a company now supplying 60,000 bathrooms nationwide.
In this inaugural CEO Conversations episode, Steve Stivers talks with Claire about:
- The origin story that sparked a nationwide movement
- Dropping out to go “all in” on her idea
- Pivoting from subscription boxes to B2B success
- Building credibility and pitching to non-menstruating decision-makers
- Cold networking strategies that actually work
- Breaking taboos with humor and purpose
It’s an inspiring, candid look at how grit, mission, and a touch of levity can change the conversation — and the marketplace.
