June Health Founder Grace Toombs on Challenging a Broken System, the Women Who Are Her Why and What It Means to Back Yourself Young
from FINE FORM by Rebecca Jarvie-Gibbs
We're kicking off Series Two of Fine Form with the extraordinary Grace Toombs - founder of June Health, Australia's first at-home cervical and STI screening platform for women, and one of Forbes' 30 Under 30 for 2025.Grace was a medical student when she was diagnosed with stage three endometriosis - and during that same procedure, discovered precancerous cells on her cervix at just 21. Four years before the recommended screening age. That moment lit a fire in her that hasn't gone out since.She left medical school, threw herself into public health research, and built June from her bedroom - cold-calling labs, knocking on doors without appointments, and refusing to take no for an answer. Today June has reached customers in every state and territory, including women in remote regions with little or no previous access to screening.In this conversation, we talk about building something that challenges an entire system, what it means to do it at 24, and what keeps her going on the days when the weight of it all could knock anyone down. @heyjunehealth@gracetoombs@thisisfineform@rebeccajarviegibbs Hosted on Acast.
