Hello and welcome back to the show! It’s Doone here, your host and hype girl.
We’re wrapping up our three-part bootstrapping mini-series with a total powerhouse—Ali Clarke, founder of Bondi Blades, Australia’s first at-home derma razor company.
Bondi Blades started as a pandemic baby with just a couple hundred bucks and quickly grew into so much more than a side hustle. Last year, Ali hit $1 million in revenue and landed her products in over 1,000 stores across Australia. How’s that for impressive?
In this episode, Ali takes us through her exact blueprint for launching Bondi Blades and shares actionable tips for every founder starting their journey today. She’s breaking down what worked for her in those scrappy early days, including her experience at Cosmoprof trade show—what it cost, what she learned, and how it impacted her business.
This is one of those episodes that will light a fire under you, no matter where you’re at in your entrepreneurial journey.
Alrighty, let’s dive into it. This is Ali for Female Startup Club.

Hello and welcome back to the show! It’s Doone here, your host and hype girl.
Today, we’re kicking off our three-part mini-series all about bootstrapping—those early, scrappy days where you’re building a dream with sheer grit, determination, and maybe a little duct tape.
For this first episode, I’m chatting with the amazing Piera Gelardi, who you might know as the co-founder of Refinery29. But today, we’re diving into her latest creative venture, Wild Things World—a bootstrapped startup dedicated to bringing more play and joy into our everyday lives. And let me tell you, it is a total cracker of an episode.
Piera radiates good vibes, and in our chat, she shares what she’s learned from her 15 years at Refinery29, why bootstrapping her new business has brought her back to her roots, and her framework for tapping into your creative self—because we all have that magic spark just waiting to be unlocked.
Wild Things World is all about celebrating the power of play. Did you know that play reduces stress, boosts creativity, and even helps us live longer? Yeah, it’s that good. So if you’ve been feeling stuck, uninspired, or just plain blah, this episode is the perfect dose of creative energy.
