#80 | Kasia Pokrop | "Rebellious Female Founder Perspective: Stop waiting for the system!"

In this second 𝗥𝗲𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗙𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, a deep dive with Kasia Pokrop, founder of 3mbrace Health | Formerly Mamamoon Health and someone who is no longer willing to wait for the world to catch up with women’s health!What struck me most is that this conversation was never really about hormones or healthcare. 𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. After becoming a mother, navigating corporate life and stepping into the startup world, Kasia found herself asking a deeper question: ⇾ if women who have seen the gaps stay silent, who exactly is going to change them?We discussed what happens when someone 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 “this is normal” as an answer. From startup accelerators where women’s health was treated as a niche topic, to workplaces and healthcare systems still overlooking half the population. Awareness alone is not enough and why change begins the moment we stop waiting for permission!Beneath every conversation about women’s health sits a bigger question: ⇾ who gets to decide what deserves attention, research and investment? Kasia challenges the quiet acceptance that systems will eventually fix themselves. Her belief is simple. If we want a different future, we need more people willing to question what everyone else has learned to live with.Deep dive talking points:👉🏾 The invisible gaps: why women’s health is still too often dismissed with “this is normal”;👉🏾 Who gets a seat at the table: what startup and investment spaces still overlook;👉🏾 Awareness versus action: why understanding the problem is only the beginning;👉🏾 Changing systems from within: how workplaces can become catalysts for healthier lives;👉🏾 The ripple effect of courage: what happens when ordinary people stop waiting and start speaking up;Some rebellious nuggets:🙌🏾 Sometimes rebellion is not making noise. It is refusing to accept an answer that no longer makes sense;🙌🏾 Systems rarely change because time passes. They change because people decide they cannot look away anymore;🙌🏾 You do not need to have all the answers before becoming part of the change. Curiosity and conversation are a powerful place to begin;Kasia’s empowering quote:🙌🏾 “If women like me don’t do something about it, nothing is ever going to happen.”Listening to Kasia left me wondering how many things we're still accepting simply because they have always been there?|Oh and one more thing:⇾ “𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵”Connect with Kasia: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kasiapokrop/ Website: https://www.3mbracehealth.com/support-and-resources Curious to learn more about the 60-day Clarity Intensify Trek?Visit ✨Journeys of Empowerment✨ | Let’s make space to see it clearly before you redesign anything!Ps will we see you at upcoming Women's Health event at Equals on the 24th of June? Link to the event: https://luma.com/vng249q4 ⇾ 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲!
