Building August with Co-Founders Nadya and Nick

Starting a company is a huge undertaking, but today’s guest has done it twice (and he’s only 23!). Nick Jain is the Co-Founder and COO of August, the sustainable period product brand behind this podcast, and he did it alongside the show’s very own Nadya Okamoto (Co-Founder and CEO). Nick sits down with Nadya to talk about the ins and outs of being a Gen Z entrepreneur: designing a product and supply chain, fundraising (and how far $2.5 million will really get you), what it means to be a direct-to-consumer business, and the complications of navigating the legal side of starting a business when you don’t have a law degree. And Nick doesn’t leave without sharing what he considers to be the most important skill he’s cultivated as a founder and leader.
