It’s the second of our summer throwbacks! This week, we’re replaying our episode with Jackie Rotman, Founder of the Center for Intimacy Justice. A social entrepreneur for over 15 years, Jackie has also worked in venture capital with a particular focus on women's health and sexual wellness. In 2019 she wrote a New York Times investigative op-ed on the sexual wellness market, which made the NY Times "Most Popular" list and was the Opinion section's display piece. Center for Intimacy Justice is leading the movement to rewrite corporate advertising policies in tech companies to allow sexual health and wellness ads for women and people with vulvas.

The Center for Intimacy Justice believes in catalyzing greater technological innovation and investment, education, and cultural understanding toward female sexual health - and building a culture of greater equity, agency, and wellbeing.
