On this episode of the Customers First podcast, I engage in a powerful discussion with Amita Sharma, co-founder of NourishDoc, a holistic wellness platform designed specifically for midlife women. Amita shares her journey through the debilitating symptoms she faced, underscoring how these experiences motivated her to create a platform that emphasizes empathy, personalization, and trust to meet the needs of underserved populations.
Amita takes us through her vast background in high-tech, which provided her with a unique perspective on the gaps prevalent in healthcare. After experiencing her struggles with perimenopause and realizing the lack of support from both her workplace and healthcare professionals, she felt compelled to explore holistic wellness. Amita interviewed thousands of experts and discovered that the healthcare system largely overlooks women’s health issues during these critical life stages due to insufficient research and training. Her revelations marked the beginning of a mission to elevate the conversation around women’s health, particularly regarding the symptoms and challenges posed by hormonal changes.
We dive deeper into the importance of addressing perimenopausal experiences not just through the lens of individual well-being, but also about workplace productivity. By illuminating how symptoms like brain fog, mood swings, and physical changes can impact women’s performance at work, Amita highlights the necessity for businesses to create supportive environments that acknowledge these challenges. This conversation sheds light on how addressing these issues proactively can benefit both employees and employers.
Amita elaborates on the 360-degree view of holistic wellness that NourishDoc provides. She explains that holistic wellness is not a trend but rather a comprehensive approach that nurtures the mind, body, and soul. The platform offers various resources such as diet and lifestyle modifications, therapeutic practices like breathwork and yoga, and evidence-based information on health management. Amita emphasizes that wellness isn’t limited to physical health; mental and emotional health are equally critical components in navigating life’s transitions, and that investing in oneself is imperative.
As we conclude, Amita addresses how she has ensured affordability and access remain a priority in her model, understanding that high-quality wellness solutions must be available to everyone. This commitment underscores her compassionate mission to empower women and educate organizations about the importance of supporting their female workforce during these critical life stages.
