Today’s episode is all about the real gaps in women’s healthcare and what it actually takes to support women in a way that honors our differences, our bodies, and our lived experiences.

I’m joined by Kirsten Karchmer, a true pioneer in women’s health tech and the founder/CEO of Conceivable Technologies. After working with more than 10,000 women in her clinic, Kirsten recognized something big: women were struggling because our healthcare system simply wasn’t designed to meet our unique, day-to-day needs.

So she built one of the very first AI-driven fertility platforms to help women uncover hidden factors that affect cycles, energy, fertility, and overall wellbeing. Her work has been spotlighted everywhere from TechCrunch to Fox News, and she’s built a community of more than 300,000 women who show up for her honest, empowering insights.
