87. The pain that sparked a purpose: Scarlet’s mission to bleed better with Jo Barry

Too many women know what it’s like to have their period pain dismissed. To be told “it’s just your period” while quietly living with symptoms that are anything but normal.

For Jo Barry, that pain had a name: endometriosis. It didn’t just bring years of struggle, it took her fertility. But instead of letting it end there, Jo turned her story into a mission to empower women and transform the way we care for our cycles.

She created Scarlet, a sustainable period self-care brand built to support women with dignity, choice, and honesty.

In this episode, Jo and I dive into:
🩸 The reality of living with endometriosis and the impact it has on women’s lives
🩸 The grief of fertility loss and how Jo turned that heartbreak into purpose
🩸 Why sustainable period care matters for both our bodies and the planet
🩸 The self-care rituals that help women move from shame into empowerment
🩸 How Scarlet is breaking taboos and rewriting the period conversation

This is more than a business story, it’s a reminder that our cycles deserve care, compassion, and conscious choices. And that even the hardest chapters can be transformed into something that empowers others.

And Jo’s story is proof that even the hardest chapters can fuel change for others.
