Devin: What is your superpower?
Deepti: The ability to rise after setbacks and turn challenges into opportunities.
Billions of toothpaste tubes end up in landfills every year, creating an environmental burden that’s hard to ignore. Recognizing this, Deepti Brambl, Founder of Kaylaan, developed an innovative alternative: toothpaste tablets. The eco-friendly product eliminates the need for plastic packaging while providing a healthier, more sustainable oral care solution.
“Toothpaste tablets are not a new concept,” Deepti explained in today’s episode, “but for me, it was important to come up with a solution that is not just plastic-friendly but also chemical-free. All of our products are natural, which ties back to how I was raised.”
Kaylaan has also expanded into mouthwash tablets and patented bamboo electric toothbrushes, solidifying their commitment to green innovation. The toothbrushes, with recycled plastic handles to combat mold growth, are fully compostable striking the balance between sustainability and practicality.
This eco-conscious ethos stems from Deepti’s Nepalese heritage, where everything was reused. After moving to the U.S., she was struck by the plastic waste culture and wanted to create an alternative that redefined oral care. She started small, testing products on Etsy. Her toothpaste tablets stood out, quickly becoming a bestseller thanks to community feedback.
The company’s community-centered approach is evident in the evolution of their product line, including fluoride-based formulas, strawberry- and watermelon-flavored tablets for kids, and neem-based tablets. Customers’ input continues to shape Kaylaan’s innovations: “Whoever came to us with requests, we worked on it,” Deepti noted.
In just a few years, Kaylaan has earned B Corp certification twice, reflecting its strong commitment to sustainability. Revenue from crowdfunding has been instrumental in scaling operations. Deepti highlighted how funds from a $45,000 raise helped move the company into a new facility, upgrade machines, and achieve compliance with FDA and GMP protocols.
Currently, Kaylaan is raising capital through regulated investment crowdfunding on Honeycomb Credit. This presents an exciting opportunity for sustainability-minded investors to support Deepti’s vision of redefining oral care.
Deepti’s journey exemplifies the power of mission-driven innovation. By tackling environmental challenges head-on, Kaylaan is demonstrating how purpose and profitability can coexist in harmony.
tl;dr:
Kaylaan develops eco-friendly toothpaste tablets to reduce waste and promote sustainable dental care.
Deepti Brambl draws inspiration from her Nepalese heritage to drive innovation at Kaylaan.
Crowdfunding on Honeycomb Credit has empowered Kaylaan to scale operations and achieve regulatory compliance.
Customer feedback has shaped Kaylaan’s diverse products, including fluoride-based and neem-flavored options.
Deepti’s resilience and passion for sustainability have propelled Kaylaan’s mission to new heights.
How to Develop Resilience As a Superpower
Deepti’s superpower is resilience—the ability to rise after setbacks and turn challenges into opportunities. She explained, “You fall as many times as possible, because that’s where real creativity, real strength, and real learning happen.” Her perseverance fuels Kaylaan, as Deepti embraces obstacles as steppingstones for growth, strength, and creativity.
Deepti vividly recounted the 10-hour ordeal of relocating a 5,000-pound tablet-press machine to a new manufacturing facility. After renting a forklift that couldn’t manage the task, she worked with a team of local professionals to resolve the situation. Despite setbacks, her persistence resulted in more efficient production and significant quality improvements for Kaylaan’s products.
Tips to Develop Resilience:
View challenges as opportunities for creativity and growth.
Accept failure as part of learning and keep moving forward.
Build strong community and business relationships for support during tough circumstances.
Prioritize preparation upfront to avoid costly mistakes later.
Embrace the idea that obstacles are a pathway to innovation and strength.
By following Deepti’s example and advice, you can make resilience a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.
Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!
