Women of Cannabis: Cyo Nystrom gets intimate with CBD

Cannabis and CBD by themselves are still not as widely expected as we’d like it to be. But combine that with women’s intimate care and you get a new level of hush-hush. We’re here for those who are breaking stigmas that overshadow a number of topics and Cyo Nystrom is one such strong entrepreneur who does that seamlessly.

She is the fierce co-founder of Quim – a brand that believes vaginal health is a precursor to the pursuit of pleasure. They consist of plant-based products that keep your quim happy and healthy. Historically, products created for vaginal health and sexual wellness have not been designed to take sustainable, proactive, self-care into account. This is where Quim was born. Cyo has blazed an unconventional trail and created a sex-positive female health line of cannabis products. Nystrom’s career has told a new story in cannabis, one that orbits health, wellness, and vagina talk. Yes, she has an endless well of creative phrases to describe to women what they’re going through (like “puffy taco” comes to mind). Nystrom candidly and honestly discusses how sex affects women’s bodies, and where cannabis is able to step in to help heal and comfort the most precious parts of our bodies. Don’t skimp on love for you or your partners' nether-regions. Quim describes itself as a “self-care line for humans with vaginas and humans without vaginas who love vaginas.” All their products use CBD and its beneficial pain & inflammation relieving properties.

On advice for young female entrepreneurs, she said the following “Know yourself— your strengths, your weakness, what you love doing and what you hate doing— and then find people to work with who are fundamentally different. My business partner, Rachel Washtien, is my polar opposite with regard to problem-solving and skillset and I firmly believe that the constant push and pull between us is exactly what will help us stay in business in the future.”
