A Simple Innovation That Will Save You Money And Help Save The Planet with Miki Agrawal

A Simple Innovation That Will Save You Money And Help Save The Planet with Miki Agrawal

This episode is brought to you by Joovv, Thrive Market, and Farmacy Since the 1800s, we have been led to believe that toilet paper does the job but, in reality, all it does is cost us money every month, kill millions of trees per year, and contribute to chronic infections. So what is the alternative? And how do we overcome social stigmas and challenge cultural norms to adopt a better practice? My guest on this week’s episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy, Miki Agrawal, is here to answer these questions and discuss her insights into creating disruptive innovations for a healthier planet! Miki shares her personal story of battling a severe hyperthyroid condition, which made her poop up to eight times per day. Using a bidet changed everything for her, and inspired her to create TUSHY, a modern affordable, and easy to install bidet attachment. Miki Agrawal is the founder of several acclaimed social enterprises: WILD, THINX, and TUSHY. She is also the author of the #1 best-selling books DO COOL SH*T and DISRUPT-HER. Miki was named "Fast Company's Most Creative People," “Young Global Leader” by the World Economic Forum, and INC's “Most Impressive Women Entrepreneurs.” She passionately speaks about her 16 years of entrepreneurial adventures, from inventing products in taboo categories, to creatively launching them, to marketing and scaling them exponentially, to dealing with shocking setbacks—and she shares her colorful, authentic revelations along the way.
