Hello hello! 👋 

If you are reading this you either already know us or someone thought of you and sent this your way. Either way, WELCOME we are Grow with Flora - or simply, Flora.

Flora started as Hackathon project back in April 2024 by our 2 co-founders Justina and Payton. What originally started as a brainstorm session on how to reduce period stigma, has formed into the dream of building the next community of leaders and empowered young girls.

Periods are awkward. They might even be scary. And let’s be real - if you had three wishes, one might be to make them disappear forever. But for most of us, they are a natural part of life. I have personally fallen victim to hiding a tampon up my sleeve on my way to the bathroom, an awkward leak at the wrong time😳, and dealing with cramps that left me stuck in bed.

Our mission is to share these experiences, talk about how we can come together as a community, and how we can turn our periods into a celebration each month. A celebration of being a girl and a girl who can handle anything!

What to expect in this newsletter🤗 

• Educational resources about your period.

• Recipes to fuel your body.

• Reviews of essential products we swear by.

• Advice columns to answer your questions.

• And the occasional awkward story to remind you: you’re not alone!

Flora isn’t just for girls - it’s for the people who support them, too. That’s why we’re launching an additional newsletter for parents, caregivers, and cheerleaders. Specifically we are targeting girl dads who want to confidently support their daughters through these changes. It’s all about providing guidance and tools for those who want to be there, even if they’ve never experienced it themselves. Stay tuned to our Instagram for updates on its launch!

Thanks for reading and we hope you join us as we all Grow with Flora together ❤️ 

xoxo,

Justina and Payton
