Due to the fact that one in three women experience incontinence, tech start-up Elvie launched a [lighthearted animated campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-your-feet) that reassures women that they are not alone in a humorous way. As part of its #FreeFromPee campaign, Elvie is sharing the adventures of Bobo and her animated friend Bladder, who always seems to interrupt their adventures to Giggle Planet or Trampoline Land with a mishap. With these ads, Elvie elevates everyday activities like laughing, sneezing, jumping or running to the status of adventures, reminding that female incontinence need not be a taboo topic.

Elvie offers innovative women's health products like a [pelvic floor trainer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myhixel-fit-base) that helps women visualize pelvic floor movements in real-time to strengthen this part of the body.
