Mirror Talk explores the stories of trailblazing women and how they sparked breakthrough in science, business, mental health, physical health, leadership, and more. Each episode features a key voice: founders, health experts, leaders, doctors, and creatives who have turned personal insight (and many times, self-doubt) into purposeful action toward a better world for women. Together, we explore what they’ve learned, what they wish more women knew, and how they got through moments of doubt and were able to reinvent themselves.

    Ep 2. "When Science Can’t Define the Cause, Women Pay the Price": Priyanka Jain on Closing the Gender Health Gap

    “For so long, we’ve been told that women’s bodies are too complicated to study. The truth is, no one ever tried hard enough. I want to change that.” When Priyanka Jain’s health started to decline, every doctor visit ended with the same vague advice — drink more water, sleep more, stress less. No one could explain what was really happening. Her search for answers uncovered a shocking truth: women weren’t even included in U.S. clinical research until 1993, and they’re still diagnosed an average of four years later than men. Determined to change that, Priyanka co-founded Evvy, a company using data from the vaginal microbiome to give women real insight into their own bodies. In this episode, she shares how frustration turned into innovation — from building schools with the UN at fifteen to building one of the most groundbreaking health-tech startups for women today. You’ll hear about: Facing years of “invisible” symptoms and unanswered questionsDiscovering the massive data gap in women’s healthLeaving a stable tech career to found Evvy in the middle of a pandemicBuilding a company that gives women back ownership of their health dataWhat “precision medicine” really means — and why it’s long overdue for womenPriyanka’s advice for anyone standing at the edge of a leap: you don’t need permission to start, but you do need conviction.Connect with Priyanka on Linkedin.

    Ep 1. "Don’t Ask Permission”: How Sylvia Kang Built Mira to Redefine Women’s Health

    “Young women need to see role models. They need to believe it’s possible. I want to show them — you don’t have to wait for someone to save you. You can make it happen.” When Sylvia Kang left China at 18 to study engineering in the U.S., she had already spent her childhood training to be a concert pianist. Everyone around her told her to stay in her “safe” path — music was elegant, acceptable, feminine. Science, they said, wasn’t for women. Years later, Sylvia proved them wrong by founding Mira, the world’s first at-home hormone health monitor that helps women truly understand their bodies. In this conversation, she shares how she went from self-teaching physics textbooks to building one of the biggest hormone data banks in the world — and what it means to trust yourself when no one else does. You’ll hear about: Growing up in a culture where girls were told science wasn’t for themLeaving behind a career as a pianist to study biomedical engineeringFacing loneliness and doubt as a young immigrant founderExplaining basic female anatomy to male investors — and still getting fundedBuilding a company that gives women real, personalized data about their healthThe advice Sylvia gives to any woman with a dream: “Don’t ask for permission.”Connect with Sylvia on Linkedin  This podcast is powered by Mira — a hormone health monitor that empowers women to track their hormones at home and make confident, informed decisions about their health and future.
