Women's Digital Health Podcast is dedicated to learning more about new digital technologies in women's health. 80% of US healthcare spending is determined by women.

episode 10: Countdown to Clarity: Breaking Down the Top 10 Myths in Women's Tech & Health
For the final episode of the first season of the podcast, I wanted to dispel some myths about Women's Digital Health and Femtech in general.
I wanted to do this because I think that some of these myths come from a desire to lessen women's concerns about technology. Throughout this series, I've tried to show you the many benefits that can come from adopting digital technology as a way to learn about and manage your health, alongside professional medical advice.
So in this episode, I lay out some of the most compelling myths about Women's Digital Health that I've heard, and try to provide the truth for you to carry forward on your health journey.
The Women's Digital Health podcast will return in early 2024 - thank you for your support so far!
