She Couldn't Find Answers for Her Health. So She Built the Solution | Saha Collective Story [Ep 80]
What do you do when you can't find the answers you need?
You build a better way.
After 15 years in the corporate technology world, Alenka Kyslik faced a personal health journey that took her through years of searching, more than $10,000 in expenses, and roughly 50 different treatments. Frustrated by the lack of a system for finding providers outside conventional, insurance-covered options, she decided to build one.
The result is Saha Collective, an online matchmaking platform designed to connect people with holistic and complementary providers based on their individual needs.
Instead of simply giving people a long list of options, Saha Collective aims to help match individuals with the type of provider that may fit their situation, from DNA testing and gut health coaching to Pilates and therapy.
In this episode of the GLOVISOR Podcast, Alenka shares the entrepreneurial lessons behind turning a personal frustration into a business, including why having a great product isn't enough, how to validate an idea before building it, and why learning how to sell can be just as important as learning how to build.
Alenka also explains where Saha Collective is headed, who the company is currently looking to serve, and why providers, people experiencing chronic stress, chronic fatigue, or chronic pain, and potential business partners may want to connect.
