we threw a launch party for a period brand.

300 people showed up.

and said it was the best launch party they’ve ever been to.

one rule: no small talk. a lot of people came alone and left with each other’s numbers.

    actual texts, after the party

    i seriously had the best time and was not kidding when i say it was one of the best events i’ve ever been to
    I had the best time too!! The party was soooo fun! And def the best launch party I’ve been to in the bay! 🫶🏽

    real women. real plans. real friendships.

    10+ events in 4 cities so far, and nearly 1,000 RSVPs. before the product even exists.

    the last one had a waitlist.

    get on the list. hear about the next one (and the disc) first.

    the sisterhood

    so, what actually is the sisterhood?

    think of it as the older sister group chat you always wished existed. except we actually get together.

    1. Women smiling mid-stride on a Cherry walk in San Francisco
      01

      the walks

      free, low-pressure, outside. you show up, you walk, you talk to someone you didn’t know an hour ago. it started with eldest daughters and grew from there.

    2. A room full of women talking in small groups at a Cherry event
      02

      big sis chats

      the conversations nobody prepared us for. relationships, bodies, friendships, sex, growing up. said out loud, in a room, with snacks.

    3. Two women in the photo booth, one on a giant prop phone, the other holding cherry disco balls
      03

      the fun stuff

      pajama parties, a rage room, bonfires, a launch party with no small talk. any excuse to get together.

    come alone. bring a friend. leave with a few more.

    come hang

    hi, it’s anna.

    i’ve been thinking about cherry for eight years.

    i’m an eldest daughter. i figured it all out alone.

    so i wondered: what if we could build a brand that’s like the older sister you never had?

    xo, anna

    a quick one

    what did your period interrupt this time?

    pick one, or write your own. we won’t tell.

    product no. 01 · the disc

    wait. what even is a menstrual disc?

    a disc collects.

    it sits higher than a tampon or cup, tucked at the base of the cervix, behind the pubic bone, not in the vaginal canal.

    which leaves the vaginal canal unobstructed.

    yes. that means what you think it means.

    every discsits at the base of the cervix and collects instead of absorbing.

    the cherry discno string, and made from 100% medical-grade materials. the rest when we launch.

    tell me about period sex

    a disc isn’t birth control and doesn’t protect against STIs.

    the cherry hotline

    ask the question you’re too embarrassed to google.

    the things you were too embarrassed to ask. the things nobody thought to tell you. periods, bodies, sex, friendships, growing up.

    1. can you actually have sex with a menstrual disc in?
    2. will someone feel it?
    3. what’s the difference between a cup and a disc?

    press a button. someone else already asked it.

    this is older sister advice, not medical advice. for actual medical questions, talk to a healthcare professional.

    the disc

    we’re making the thing we wished existed.

    you’ll spend six to seven years of your life on your period. your sex life shouldn’t take that long a break. so: a menstrual disc with no string, made from 100% medical-grade materials, for less messy period sex. coming soon, and the waitlist sees it first.

    where it’s happened so far

      we’re not trying to make you love your period.

      it isn’t magical every second of the month.

      it isn’t a curse, either.

      you’ve been told to hide it, manage it, and apologize for it for a week straight.

      we call bullshit. it just doesn’t get a veto.

      so we’re starting with a menstrual disc.

      period neutrality.

      the disc is just the beginning.

      get the disc first

      your period doesn’t get to pick your plans.

      the disc, the events, the sisterhood. you’ll hear about it all.
