Alice Pelton is founder of The Lowdown, the world's first peer to peer review platform for contraceptives. Alice thinks that women spend a lot of time, energy and days off work trying to find the best contraception for them - and her business is designed to make that process easier.

Alice spoke to An Honest Account host Rachael Revesz about the £53 million business that inspired her to get her idea off the ground, how we are physically able to reduce our Netflix intake to launch a femtech business and why contraception choices / research / information are so underfunded.
