From Trauma to Purpose: FemTech, Healing & Leadership with Roswitha Verwer | Ep 41
Today’s Takeaways
Trauma can be transformed into growth: Survivors often find meaning and resilience by exploring coping strategies like counseling, faith or community support.
Choose advisors who share your values: Founders and leaders should seek mentors and board members whose vision and ethics align with both their personal goals and the organization’s mission. In practice, clarifying expectations and shared principles upfront helps ensure advisors are fully committed and that the partnership drives forward progress.
FemTech is breaking taboos and meeting demand: The booming FemTech sector is driven by women’s growing awareness of their own health needs. By focusing on areas such as menstrual health, fertility, and vaginal wellness, FemTech startups are dismantling long-held stigmas and sparking important conversations around women’s health.
FemTech extends beyond products to education and changing bodies: While many innovations target female-specific health issues, the movement also emphasizes education for everyone. FemTech now spans menstrual and sexual health, pregnancy, contraception, menopause, and beyond, reflecting the reality that our bodies evolve over time and that understanding these changes is vital.
Build trusting teams through transparency: Organizational health relies on psychological safety and mutual trust. When leaders are open about needing space, support, or downtime, they empower their teams to be more authentic as well. Normalizing the full range of human experience creates stronger bonds and a healthier workplace culture.
High expectations go hand-in-hand with support: Effective leaders set ambitious goals while also providing the training, resources, and encouragement needed to achieve them. This combination of clear direction and strong support amplifies progress, builds confidence, and helps teams thrive without fear of failure or burnout.
