Meet Bunmi!
Bunmi Babajide isn’t your typical health startup founder. She comes from a design engineering, product manufacturing and management consulting background and has enjoyed spending the past 16 years working in the automotive, aerospace and chemical industries for the public and private sector.
Babajide earned her PhD in engineering education from Purdue University.
Bunmi’s story into the world of Web 3.0 start-ups began a few years ago when she was pregnant with her first child. She wanted to track her health. She found a few apps but each one was missing something to give her and her medical team a full and accurate picture.
In March 2022, Bunmi decided to take the leap away from her engineering background to focus her entire efforts on changing the way we will all track, monitor and monetize our health data. She took a leap into the fast-paced world of Web 3.0 and launched a health and wellness startup.
On this show, we discuss:
🩺 Using blockchain technology to own, monetize and incentivize health-care data and tracking
💰How and where to apply for grants to fund your web3 startup
🤰🏻Building as a mompreneur
🤖 The role of AI in healthcare, wellness and web3 technologies
We end with a two-minute mindfulness exercise! :)

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
