This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil Endometriosis & Women's Health with Somer Baburek | 238
I am done with women’s health being undervalued and underfunded. I am tired of feeling like our bodies are fodder for politics rather than what they are, which is: half of population, complex, individual, and just as worthy.
And while I clearly have feelings about it, I have no expertise. So I’ve invited Somer Baburek to join us as our guest. Somer serves as the President & CEO of Hera Biotech, a women’s health company focused on commercializing a non-surgical diagnostic for early detection of endometriosis. Prior to founding Hera, Somer spent ten years in life science venture capital at Targeted Technology Fund, as the Director of Clinical Operations for Santalis Pharmaceuticals where she built out the clinical program at the company. All that to say, she knows a whole lot about women’s health, endometriosis and FemTech.
It’s time for all women to get the care they deserve, the information they need, access to the options and choices currently only available to some, and the opportunity to be listened to and treated for whatever it is that is hurting us.
There are women who don’t and won’t advocate for women’s health, but guess what – we can stand for them anyway. Because this isn’t about deserving or earning, this is about the inherent value of each and every one of us - let’s value women’s bodies for far more than how they look!
