This week on Mom Means Business, we’re diving deep into a conversation that’s often whispered about — but never shouted from the rooftops. Our guest, Wendy Strgar, is here to change that.

Wendy is the founder and CEO of Good Clean Love, a trailblazing brand that started in her kitchen and now lives on shelves in over 50,000 stores across North America. With her patented Bio-Match® technology, Wendy is transforming how we talk about (and care for) vaginal health — with safety, science, and soul.

In this episode, we cover:

How Wendy went from kitchen chemist to one of the Top 25 Consumer HealthTech CEOs, building a mission-driven brand centered on organic, body-safe products for women.

📦 Agenda Items – From ingredient transparency to disrupting a historically male-dominated industry, Wendy shares the personal and professional journey behind Good Clean Love and her mission to elevate vaginal health education.

Wendy brings both science and soul to the conversation — plus decades of experience in entrepreneurship, wellness advocacy, and female empowerment. You’ll walk away informed, inspired, and ready to advocate for your own health (and maybe re-think your top drawer).
