From Pharmacy Counter to Wonder Woman Cape: How One Fabulous Pharmacist is Changing the Wellness Game

Laura Dowling on vulvas, meno+peri pause, viral PR and the power of showing up (in a Wonder Woman costume and scrubs)

What do you get when you cross a pharmacist, a lab coat, a Wonder Woman costume, and a giant walk-through vagina? A podcast episode that delivers a dose of truth, sass, science and sparkle.

On the latest episode of PR LIKE A BOSS! I sit down with the force of nature that is Laura Dowling, pharmacist, entrepreneur, CEO of FabÜ Wellness and the fabulous mind (and vulva advocate) behind the upcoming book Love Your Vulva.

Laura chats candidly about building her personal brand from behind the pharmacy counter, breaking taboos on women’s health with humour and how she grew her wellness brand by talking to people like a real human being (and not a robot spewing ingredient lists).

Some standout soundbites?

  • Why Laura credits her patients, their DMs and a Sunday night “confession box” for her education in real-life wellness.

  • How wearing a Wonder Woman outfit while interviewing strangers about their HRT needs helped her brand go viral.

  • The time she begged for supplement award votes while holding a megaphone and yelling “Make You Great Again.”

  • That moment she fell off a zipline in a lab coat and turned it into a viral menopause metaphor.

She also gives real talk advice to any founders thinking of launching a brand in a crowded space: skip the jargon, show your face (tash and all) and don’t be afraid to fall, literally or figuratively.

Mentions include:

So if you’ve ever wondered how to make your wellness brand/service stand out without selling your soul, or you just want to hear someone scream “vulva” in a public place with purpose, this is the episode for you!
