131: Captain Awkward: From Baker to CEO of Taboo Products with Frances Tang - a podcast by Dr. Donnica Moore

In 2018, entrepreneur and former professional baker, Frances Tang was inspired by a spatula and cake batter to break into the $20.6 billion feminine hygiene industry. While scooping the excess batter from her kitchen aid, she thought, “Why can’t clean up after sex be this easy?” After several awkward conversations with friends, family, and eventually investors, Frances launches her company Awkward Essentials. It’s a direct to consumer brand with the purpose of creating solutions for life’s embarrassing problems.

 

Instead of a CEO, Frances calls herself “Captain Awkward”. She talks about her journey into creating the sex clean up sponge. Many women don’t have all of the information on women’s health and sex. She’s been using this opportunity to teach women all of the taboo’s that people don’t like talking about!
