0:00.0	Hey guys, welcome back to Wee Metedakmi. I'm so excited to be here with Lauren Billy,
0:05.4	founder of Cycles and Sex. Hey Lauren. Hey! How is it going? It's going good. Cool. So I'm gonna
0:15.8	ask some basic questions, just like get into the flow. How old are you and where are you from?
0:22.2	Oh man. I've been thinking lately. I'm kind of old. You're not. I am. I'm not really old, but I've
0:27.9	been thinking lately that I'm starting to become old compared to the people I'm around and should I
0:32.0	stop saying how old I am? Well... I've been asking myself that question. I don't think so because
0:38.4	as long as you say it in a confident way, like I'm this age and I love being this age, then it's fine.
0:43.7	Also like women thrive more in their like 30s and 40s as opposed to their 20s. So... I'm 40 not and
0:50.6	just getting it on. I'm 34. That's pretty young. A 34 and a half. Yeah, you're not. You're not so old.
0:57.3	How old are you? I'm 27. But people think that I'm like 34. Really? Yeah. I'm 27 too.

1:30.5	years. Oh cool. Going on 11. Nice. And what initially brought you here? NYU. Cool. Is that how
1:37.0	you met Jesse? No. No. But we both went there around the same time. That's funny. And learn that later.
1:43.3	Yeah. That's really funny. And what is cycles and sex? Thank you. Yeah. Cycles and sex is an
1:52.0	organization that educates people about their bodies through the lens of reproductive health and sex.
1:58.4	We do it through online content and real life experiences. And it products in the future.
2:06.2	That's awesome. And so what is some of the content like online and what was your goal when you
2:13.6	thought of the idea or like was there like something specific? Yeah it wasn't my idea. It was my
