Today, I’m joined by Lauren Makler, co-founder & CEO of Cofertility.
Cofertility helps women freeze their eggs for free by donating half of those retrieved, making egg freezing accessible and donations non-transactional.
In this episode, we discuss rethinking fertility care through human-centered design.
We also cover:
- Building a two-sided fertility marketplace
- Scaling in an emotionally complex category
- Addressing egg freezing’s age and cost gaps
