"I was jealous of diabetics that could screen themselves whenever they wanted to in their homes. There are 2 billion people that suffer from anemia," Erika says.

In this episode, Erika Tyburski shares a very inspiring story when founders, «a bunch of nerds», solve their own health problems via a healthtech product. During the last years, a lot of focus shifted away from other chronic diseases that were being managed prior to the pandemic.

You'll learn about the FDA approval process, getting patients' feedback, distributing uncommon healthcare apps, and the path of Sanguina in healthcare from the early beginning through all the stages. This episode will inspire you to launch your own idea to the market and help hundreds or even millions of people.
