Why We Shouldn’t Settle for Discomfort: The Breastezz Story
In today’s episode, I chat with Jesse, the founder of Breastezz Pillow, a groundbreaking product designed to provide ultimate comfort while laying on your front. Jesse’s journey started with a simple yet significant question—why was it so uncomfortable to lie face down during a massage? After experiencing this discomfort herself, she realised she couldn’t be the only woman facing this challenge. Inspired by a dream, Jesse set out to design a pillow that would alleviate this problem, and after nine prototypes, Breastezz was born.
In our conversation, Jesse shares the process of developing the Breastezz Pillow, from the initial concept to overcoming production challenges, all while staying committed to creating a locally made, Brisbane-based product. We dive into the versatility of the pillow, which is perfect for massages, chiropractors, beach lounging, or reading, and how it supports women of all shapes and sizes. Whether it’s discomfort due to hormones, medical conditions, surgery, breastfeeding, or general sensitivity, Breastezz offers a solution that puts comfort first.
Tune in to hear how one woman’s vision turned into a product that helps so many of us say goodbye to discomfort and embrace relaxation.
