Jaelin’s Notes
As a midwife and advocate for women’s health, I’m thrilled to see a spotlight on the opportunities for innovation in this space. Women’s healthcare has long been underserved, and the gaps in access and inclusivity are issues I’ve encountered firsthand in my practice. From maternal care to menopause, women deserve healthcare solutions that are tailored to their unique needs.
I’ve also seen the potential of technology in action—whether it’s using apps to track fertility or telehealth consultations that make care more accessible. These advancements can be life-changing, but it’s important that we don’t lose sight of the human element in care. Women want to feel heard, understood, and supported, and that’s something no technology can replace.
I encourage all of us—whether as healthcare providers, investors, or consumers—to push for more inclusive, innovative solutions that truly prioritize women’s health and well-being.
