あらすじ・解説
Motherhood, family, fertility and entrepreneurship…oh my! These are words and topics that don’t often go together. In fact…many would argue that these do not blend in this industry.Naseem Sayani is a trailblazing consultant turned entrepreneur turned Venture Capitlist and General Partner at Emmeline Ventures. Naseem shares her health and fertility journey and struggles openly and transparently and in ways that many won’t. Starting with fertility challenges, through to IVF, and ultimately her adoption journey and how these experiences taught her about the environment that women live and navigate today when it comes to fertility and how this drove and inspired her to create Emmaline Ventures to fund companies that are solving these types of problems that millions of women experience.Lack of consistent and reliable information for women about fertility leaves women disempowered and in positions where they have to make big choices with incorrect information, often from a disempowered place of social perceptions and cultural and society biases. Not exactly the recipe for modern women (and men) who want to have both careers and families.Join Genevieve and Naseem to dig in to the topic with matter of factness and frankness.
