This episode came from a really beautiful beginning that I want to tell you about. And you might know what I’m talking about if you follow me on Instagram. So a few months ago I posted out of desperation for help - about this crazy messed up period that I had which gave me hours of severe back pain and vomitting and everything else. Absolute period from hell. But the beautiful thing that came out of this experience is that I had hundreds of people reach out to me with their stories and advice and recommendations and funnily enough a guy I know, Justin Silver, popped into my DMS recommending that I meet the founder of Elix, Lulu Ge.</p><p><br></p><p>Now Elix is is the first digital platform to use modern technology to personalize Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), by combining time-tested knowledge, medicinal botanicals, and clinical research to empower self-healing. It’s ben built on the principle that menstrual cycles are a vital sign for our overall health, and Elix formulates pure and potent liquid herbal extracts clinically proven to treat hormonal imbalances that are the root cause of painful and life-disrupting symptoms. Beyond herbal treatments, Elix is committed to breaking women’s health taboos and bridging the gap in healthcare knowledge through community events and their content vertical The Wisdom.</p><p><br></p><p>So this conversation comes from a pretty special place for me as someone suffering in this space - and I learned a lot from Lulu about how she’s built her business. We talk about:</p><ul>\n<li>Using an accelerator as a launchpad</li>\n<li>Building a product with word of mouth inherently built in like wild fire</li>\n<li>Creating a business rooted in heritage and culture and using that as your core content marketing strategy</li>\n<li>And Lulu’s advice for founders</li>\n</ul><p><br></p><p>If you ever want to chat period stuff feel free to slide into my dms on Instagram, I am deep in the journey right now and I’ve shared all the insights that I received as a big juicy highlight.</p><p><br></p><p>Let’s get into this episode, this is Lulu for Female Startup Club</p><p><br></p><p>LINKS WE MENTION:</p><p><br></p><p>Elix <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/elixhealing/?hl=en\">Instagram</a></p><p><br></p><p>Elix <a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@elixhealing\">TikTok </a></p><p><br></p><p>Lulu's <a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@lulutheherbalist\">TikTok</a></p><p><br></p><p>Lulu's <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/luluge/?hl=en\">Instagram</a></p><p><br></p><p>Shop Elix with 15% off using the code: <strong>FEMALESTARTUPCLUB15</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Visit <a href=\"https://www.upscribe.io/femalestartupclub/?utm_source=Female+Startup+Club+&amp;utm_medium=Email+&amp;utm_campaign=Female+Startup+Club+&amp;utm_id=Female+Startup+Club+\">Upscribe.io/femalestartupclub</a> to learn more and receive your first month FREE</p><p><br></p><p>SIGN UP FOR 1800-HYPEGIRL HOTLINE HERE:<a href=\"https://femalestartupclub.norby.live/\"> femalestartupclub.norby.live</a></p><p><br></p><p>Female Startup Club's<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/femalestartupclub/\"> Instagram</a></p><p> </p><p>Doone's<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/dooneroisin/\"> Instagram</a></p><p> </p><p>Doone's<a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@dooneroisin?\"> TikTok</a></p><p> </p><p>To redeem 1 month free of Norby's Basic Plan use code \"FSC\" here<strong>:</strong><a href=\"https://join.nor.by/?cid=9y3\"> https://join.nor.by/</a></p><p> </p><p>In partnership with<a href=\"https://www.klaviyo.com/fsc\"> Klaviyo</a>, the best email marketing tool for eCommerce businesses</p><p> </p><p>Female Startup Club's<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIeqjd6tglzJ_jP2ZQkWYKQ\"> YouTube</a><a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/femalestartupclub\">Female Startup Club’s</a> Private Facebook Group</p><p> </p><p>Say hello to Doone: hello@femalestartupclub.com</p><p> </p><p>Female Startup Club + Clearco:<a href=\"http://clear.co/partner/female-startup-club\"> Clear.co/partner/female-star</a></p>","author_name":"Female Startup Club"}
