Ep. 23 Hon. Leela Aheer - Built to Thrive: Women's Empowerment and Reimagining Women's Healthy Through Tech

On this transformative episode of TechTonic, we welcome the Honorable Leela Aheer, former Minister for the Status of Women and now Chief Growth Officer at The BioSport, for a raw, insightful conversation on women’s health, empowerment, and the systems that must evolve.

Alongside guest co-host Stacy Whitaker, we discuss The BioSport and how it's a cutting-edge tool that uses genomics, AI, and biometrics to optimize athletic performance, prevent injuries, and unlock each athlete’s unique potential.

In addition that this, we explore how it can be personalized for women’s healthcare recognizing inflammation, hormone shifts, gut-brain balance, and mental performance not as nuisances to ignore, but as powerful biological data points to optimize well-being.

But this episode isn’t just about tech, it’s about shifting culture. Leela shares how emotional intelligence in leadership, policy reform, and redefining professionalism can build more inclusive spaces for women in business, tech, and beyond. From navigating political and corporate power structures to advocating for better menstrual and hormonal care, she reminds us that women’s experiences are not elective, they are essential.

We explore why embracing emotion isn't weakness, why community is the antidote to fear, and how every woman, and ally can help reshape the future by demanding more humanity, equity, and integrity in innovation.
