Who's Afraid of Vaginas? How Sexist "Taboos" Affect Women's Healthcare with Marina Gerner

Financial Feminist

Hey Financial Feminists I'm beyond excited to bring you an eye-opening conversation with Marina Gerner, the author of The Vagina Business. We’re discussing the shocking gender biases in healthcare — from the staggering lack of medical research focused on women's health to the uphill battles female entrepreneurs face when pitching women-centric innovations. This episode is packed with actionable insights on how we can support better research, champion women-owned businesses, and finally start talking openly about the topics that impact us most.
