From Crippling Anxiety to a 700K Community-Funded App
<p>On this episode of Femtech At Work, Mary Doube, civil engineer turned competitive strongwoman and co-founder/CEO of Aviiana, shares how being told her crippling perimenopause symptoms were "trauma" pushed her to build the app she couldn't find anywhere else. After VCs passed, Mary and her co-founder turned to their community, raising $700,000 in a crowdfunding round that closed in 48 hours flat. Now backed by a health-tech growth partner, Aviiana is building a women's health innovation platform combining a symptom tracker, a doctor-ready health passport, and a vetted directory of professionals. This is a masterclass in investing in women's healthcare — not from a boardroom, but from a mum of three who nearly didn't make it through her own perimenopause. If you've ever been told you're "fine" while your body says otherwise, you need to hear this.</p><p></p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Why did one doctor's diagnosis send this founder into a mental health crisis instead of an answer?<strong> </strong></li><li>Find out how a civil engineer with no medical background ended up building a health tech platform used by thousands of women </li><li>Discover what happened in the 48 hours after this founder asked her community for money instead of investors</li><li>What did the VCs get wrong when they passed on funding this founder — twice? </li><li>Use this founder's story to rethink what you assume about your own "unexplained" symptoms</li></ul><p></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p>Mary Doube: LinkedIn</p><p>Aviiana: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-doube-b545107/">LinkedIn</a></p><p>Aviiana: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/strong-formula/">LinkedIn</a> | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/aviianaofficial">Instagram</a> | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/725440067660769/#">Facebook</a> |</p><p>Aviiana: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://aviiana.com.au/">aviiana.com.au/</a></p><p>Maaike Steinebach:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://linkedin.com/in/maaike-steinebach-8a3a304"> LinkedIn</a></p><p>Website Femtech Future: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.femtechfuture.com">femtechfuture.com</a></p><p>Instagram Femtech Future:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/femtech_future"> @femtech_future</a></p><p></p><p></p><p>If this episode made you sit with the memory of a doctor telling you "you're fine" while your body was screaming otherwise, you are not alone, and you are not imagining it — Mary's story is proof that the answers exist even when the system hasn't caught up yet, and if this conversation gave you even a flicker of recognition, do one thing right now: leave a 5-star review on whatever platform you're listening on, because it takes 30 seconds and it's the single most powerful way to help Femtech At Work reach the women who need to hear a story like Mary's, so subscribe on Spotify or Apple Podcasts so you never miss a founder story like this one, and thank you so much for being here. See you next week. </p><p></p><p></p>

Women's Metabolic Health: The CGM Platform Fixing What Healthcare System Ignores
<p>What happens when one of Australia's leading integrative GPs starts scaling women's metabolic health to thousands? Dr. Michelle Woolhouse, founding medical doctor at Vively and author of The Wonder Within, joins Femtech At Work to answer exactly that.</p><p>The healthcare system is built for disease management, not for the woman who feels exhausted, hormonally stuck, and told she is fine when she knows something is deeply wrong. Dr. Michelle spent 25 years in integrative medicine, watching this play out, and built something different. Vively combines CGMs, personalized blood testing, and lifestyle coaching, and with 8,500 members and 2,500 active in coaching, holistic data-driven care for women is proving it can scale.</p><p>If diets have failed you and your doctor has dismissed you, this is the femtech conversation that changes the way you think about your health.</p><p></p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Why does your body keep fighting back, no matter how clean you eat, how hard you train, or how disciplined you think you are</li><li>Discover what the healthcare system you have trusted your whole life was actually built to do and why your long-term health may never have been the real priority</li><li>Find out how a pattern millions of women have called a personal weakness their entire lives might finally have a biological, data-driven explanation that changes everything</li><li>Learn what a real model of preventative care for women actually looks like and why it looks nothing like what most of us have ever had access to </li><li>What is the one tool you can start using right now to finally understand what is actually happening inside your own body and why the results might surprise you</li></ul><p></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p>Michelle Woolhouse: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-michelle-woolhouse-505a9172/">LinkedIn</a></p><p>Vively: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/vively-healthcare/">LinkedIn</a></p><p>Vively: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/vively_health/?hl=en">Instagram</a></p><p>Vively: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://vively.com.au/">vively.com.au/</a></p><p>The Wonder Within by Dr. Michelle Woolhouse : <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.drmichellewoolhouse.com/products/the-wonder-within">Buy here</a></p><p>Maaike Steinebach:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://linkedin.com/in/maaike-steinebach-8a3a304"> LinkedIn</a></p><p>Website Femtech Future:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.femtechfuture.com"> https://www.femtechfuture.com</a></p><p>Instagram Femtech Future:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/femtech_future"> @femtech_future</a></p><p></p><p>You just spent time inside a conversation that most women will never find and that matters. Every episode of Femtech At Work exists because founders like Dr. Michelle are doing the work, and because listeners like you keep showing up to hear it.</p><p> If something in this episode stayed with you — a question it raised, a shift it started, a thought you cannot stop thinking about — turn that into one action right now. Leave a 5-star review on whatever platform you are listening on. It takes 30 seconds, and it is how Femtech At Work keeps finding and amplifying the voices that women across Asia actually need to hear. Subscribe on Spotify or Apple Podcasts so the next conversation reaches you first — and thank you so much for being here. See you next week. <strong> </strong></p><p></p>

Progressive Period Care and the Problem Nobody Was Solving: Mia Klitsas on Innovation in Women's Health through Moxie
<p>It started with a lone tampon rolling around at the bottom of a handbag. That was the moment,</p><p>Mia Klitsas, the Co-founder of Moxie, Australia's progressive period care brand on a mission to make women feel genuinely seen through products that are functional, beautiful, and built around real needs that have been overlooked for far too long.</p><p>In this episode, Mia takes us behind twenty-one years of building a brand from the ground up, bootstrapped, battle-tested, and unapologetically focused on women. From cracking major retail at 22 with nothing but cold calls and conviction, to developing Australia's first purpose-built pad for endometriosis, there is a lot in this conversation that goes well beyond period care.</p><p>If you are building something, selling something, or simply trying to understand what it really takes to create a product women actually need, the answers are in here. Let’s dive in!</p><p></p><p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p><ul><li>Find out how a tampon rolling around in a handbag sparked a business idea that a 21-year-old turned into a launch in just six months with nothing but guts, cold calls, and a dog-with-a-bone attitude </li><li>Discover why Moxie calls itself progressive period care and what that actually means when it comes to the way they talk about women's bodies, periods, and pain </li><li>Learn what Mia personally uncovered when she sat down with 43 people living with endometriosis, and why what she heard completely changed how Moxie thinks about product development </li><li>Find out what Australia's first purpose-built pad for endometriosis actually does differently </li><li>Find out why Mia believes the future of women's health innovation isn't just about building products for women and the two words that she thinks should sit at the centre of every founder's process </li><li>Find out why Mia thinks most people building in women's health are still getting it fundamentally wrong and the uncomfortable truth she's not afraid to say out loud </li></ul><p></p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><p>Mia Klitsas: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/miaklitsas/">LinkedIn</a></p><p>Moxie:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/moxiehq/"> Instagram</a> |<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@moxiehq"> TikTok</a> | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/OfficialMoxieTV">YouTube</a></p><p>Moxie:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.moxie.com.au"> Website</a></p><p>Maaike Steinebach:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://linkedin.com/in/maaike-steinebach-8a3a304"> LinkedIn</a></p><p>Website Femtech Future:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.femtechfuture.com"> https://www.femtechfuture.com</a></p><p>Instagram Femtech Future:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/femtech_future"> @femtech_future</a></p><p></p><p>Mia didn't wait for permission to change the conversation around periods, she just started having it. Loudly, honestly, and without apology. And in doing so, she built something that millions of women around the world didn't even know they were waiting for. That's what happens when you stop designing around what's comfortable and start designing around what's real.</p><p>If this episode resonated with you, share it with a woman in your life who deserves to feel seen in her health. Like it, leave a review, and help us keep amplifying the founders who are quietly and not so quietly changing the face of women's health. See you next week for another episode of Femtech At Work.</p>
