068. Starting a Business Later in Life: Thyme Sullivan’s Reinvention at 48

When Thyme Sullivan got laid off from Nestle at 48 after 27 years climbing the corporate ladder, she faced a choice that would transform not just her life, but the lives of countless women.

She had spent decades running wholesale grocery for the world's biggest food and beverage company, starting from driving a Frito-Lay truck straight out of college to reaching executive level. By every external measure, she was wildly successful… but she was also completely miserable.

In this conversation, Thyme shares the raw truth about leaving a high-paying executive role as the family breadwinner and building Unicorn: a company that's revolutionizing period products in public spaces.
