    The Med School Dropout Rebuilding Women's Healthcare In Australia (Grace Toombs)

    In episode #153 of Sweat Capital, we sit down with Grace Toombs, Founder of Hey June, to unpack why she walked away from a hard-won place in medical school to rebuild women's healthcare in Australia. After ten years of chronic pain being dismissed by doctors, Grace was finally diagnosed with stage three endometriosis while studying medicine. During that surgery, her gynaecologist performed a cervical screening test and it returned high-grade pre-cancerous cells. She'd only caught it because of her proximity to the healthcare system, and she couldn't stop asking: what happens to the women who don't have that access? That frustration became Hey June, a Medicare-backed platform turning the most shame-filled experience in women's healthcare, STI testing and cervical screening, into care women actually want to use, now reaching thousands of women in every state and territory in Australia. We dive into the early days of cold-calling and door-knocking pathology labs as a med school dropout with no piece of paper, landing $120k through the Startmate Accelerator when June had been in market for barely six weeks, the Forbes 30 Under 30 cover that suddenly got her emails answered, and why she's turned down VC after VC while holding out for mission-aligned, patient capital. We also explore the state of women's health in Australia, why women weren't included in Australian clinical trials until 2010, the toxic wellness culture flooding social feeds with advice that isn't evidence-based, why diagnostics (including a new saliva test for endometriosis) are racing ahead of continuity of care, and what it will take to reach women in rural, remote and Indigenous communities. For founders, clinicians, or anyone who's ever been told "there's nothing wrong with you", this episode is a lesson in turning rage into your unfair advantage. *** This episode was recorded on 13 July 2026.

    #152 - Oliver Allis (Yo-Chi): The Brand Builder Behind Australia's Favourite Frozen Yoghurt

    In this episode of Sweat Capital, we sit down with Oliver Allis, Chief Brand Officer at Yo-Chi, to unpack how a frozen yoghurt brand became one of the most talked-about businesses in the country. Oliver was 23, fresh off a year of travelling when his family made a bet on the future of frozen yoghurt. At the time it was four stores, the frozen yoghurt craze was flickering out, and COVID was about to shut Victoria down. Six years on, Yo-Chi has expanded to 74 venues, including internationally. This growth has led Oliver to describe his own as a transition to being the brand's guardian. For anyone building a brand, thinking about how businesses stay relevant, or wondering whether saying yes to the uncertain thing at 23 is worth it, this is a rare look at how taste, conviction and a genuine obsession with the details can turn a plateauing business into a movement. *** This episode was recorded on 9 July 2026.
