Period Care Products, Reimagined – Faith Labija on Blush & Bloom
In this episode, we sit down with Faith Chuby Labija, founder of ChuChu Softies, a menstrual care company rethinking comfort and dignity. From her dorm room in Ghana to building an award-winning FemHealth brand, Faith shares how she turned scraps of cloth into a social impact company serving women across West Africa.
We talk about hidden chemicals in common pads, what makes a product truly safe, and how stigma shapes period conversations in Africa. Faith also shares lessons on rest, user feedback, and why boys must be part of menstrual education.
