Helene Guillaume is helping bring women's health to the forefront of wellness understanding. Lianna has a wonderful chat with Helene about her fascinating athletic endeavors (like ice swimming?!), how she discovered the need for more women's health understanding around menstruation, and the perception of women's bodies through all cycles of life.
Helene Guillaume is the founder and CEO of WILD.AI, an app redesigning the infrastructure for female health by helping women train, fuel, and recover based on their menstrual cycle. And now providing that knowledge to third parties – think Oura Ring, Apple health – through an API.
The team includes the co-founder of Clue, Ph.D. experts in the domain, Dr. Stacy Sims, coach Bevan McKinnon, and backed by the likes of Adidas or Paula Radcliffe.
She studied mathematics and financial risks, was a quant in a hedge fund and management consultant to Fortune 500 companies in AI. She was a rugby player; she’s an ultra-marathon runner, triathlete, surfer, skier, and ice-swimmer. Her favorite combined skillset is vitality+brains.
