About the Founders
This week it’s all about innovation and wellness! Our three founders from the InvestHer Directory all believe this combination is the the way forward when it comes to women’s wellbeing. Ciara Donlon started Theya Healthcare when breast cancer survivors regularly came to her for comfortable, functional and beautiful alternatives when healing after their surgeries. So she created underwear made from bamboo material that helps them heal better. Polly Rodriguez believes all women deserves to experience pleasure in a safe way and by creating beautiful, body safe vibes & accessories through Unbound she is determined to make it happen. Our final trailblazer this week is Joanna Griffiths, busy bringing revolutionary solutions to life through Knix and transforming an underwear market that had too much frill and not enough function. About the Founders
Our founders this week all focus on facilitating access to information which will allow women to lead the healthiest life possible. Take Cécile Réal, CEO, Endodiag, for example, she is busy radically changing the lives of millions of women suffering from endometriosis by providing them with earlier and easier diagnosis. Beatrice Dixon, Co-Founder & CEO, The Honey Pot Company, is equally busy, manufacturing plant-based, chemical-free feminine hygiene products intended to offer healthy alternatives to feminine care. We will also introduce you to Shashwata Narain, Co-Founder & CEO, Veera Health, and her work which include building modern healthcare solutions for women's chronic conditions in India.
