In this episode of Call Me CEO, Camille sits down with Bette Bentley — former comedy writer, mom of two, and the founder behind Skimpies: the TikTok-viral underwear alternative shaking up the women’s basics category.

Bette shares how a real-life frustration (yes, panty lines and uncomfortable underwear!) inspired her to create an entirely new product category. Since launching last fall, Skimpies has gone viral on TikTok, landed in Marshalls & TJ Maxx, and gained traction with Hollywood wardrobe teams including on Marvel productions.

This conversation is packed with humor, candor, and real-life grit as Bette opens up about entrepreneurship, mothering through big dreams, building a brand from scratch, and trusting your wild ideas — even the ones you’re afraid might sound “weird.”
