Notes from the Studio

We asked Ray, one of our Manufacturing teammates, some questions about what it's like to work at Bryr. Here's what they said: 

BRYR: What is your current role at Bryr?

Last week, we came together as a community and raised money to support reproductive rights. Bryr teamed up with our friends at Rare Device, Mercy Vintage, Botnia Skincare, and Windy Chien Studio, four businesses that are owned by women and dear friends to Bryr, and with your help raised $7290. These funds were donated directly to WRRAP, Keep our Clinics, and the National Network of Abortion Funds. Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, and supported this important cause! 

Dear Bryr Community,

I want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me learn and grow through the last few weeks and months. When I started Bryr 9 years ago, I had no idea where this journey would take me and how much I would learn along the way. Firstly and most importantly, I want to start by sharing my thanks. I want to thank my team for sharing their perspective and diligently working with me throughout this process. I want to thank Manpreet Kalra, our new equity advisor, for bringing her years of expertise to the conversation. I would also like to thank the other business owners who shared their perspectives with me. And finally, I’d like to thank our community for believing in Bryr enough to hold us accountable to our shared values. We have done a lot of work and we have lots of work to do. I recognize addressing pay is just the first step and that equity and transparency are a process....

We want to thank everyone who's been so patience with us over the last few weeks. We've had a few unexpected delays on our platform orders going out in the promised 45 day window. We want to share the reason for the delay.

We are getting back to making as safely and productively as we can, and we’ve worked to make a really solid plan on how and when we will make and ship all of the made-to-order clogs purchased while we were out of the studio.
