Choosing Yourself, Even When It Disappoints Others and Designing Your Own Path with Co-Founders of Milamend
About this episode
#378: Milamend is a daily hormone-support drink made with 14 clinically studied ingredients, designed to support energy, mood, cycles, skin, and digestion by addressing root causes. While it’s now used by over 100,000 women worldwide and recommended by healthcare providers, it started simply as something Mila was trying to make for herself.
Mila Magnani is the co-founder of Milamend, a science-backed women’s health brand focused on hormone balance. Inspired by her own struggles with conditions like PCOS and feeling dismissed by the traditional healthcare system, she launched Milamend to create effective, transparent solutions for women. With a global background spanning Mexico City, New York, and Paris, Mila brings a community-driven and holistic approach to wellness, empowering women to better understand and support their bodies.
Lucas Labelle is also the co-founder of Milamend, where he leads operations, growth, and business strategy. Originally born in Lebanon, he grew up in Milan and Paris, before spending his 20s in NYC, where he met his now wife and co-founder, Mila. At Milamend, Lucas and Mila work together closely to bring accessible, science-backed hormone health solutions to women worldwide.
