Hera Hub has been a home base since the very beginning of this journey, so getting to speak at one of their events felt like a full-circle moment.
This one was personal. I talked about where I came from and how Muay Thai, of all things, propelled me forward. The confidence I built in the gym started showing up everywhere else. On stage. In investor meetings. In rooms where I used to shrink.
The product side of the conversation covered how Hydrostasis came together. A frustration in the gym into a real technology built for people whose hydration needs have always been overlooked. That includes women, people with darker skin tones, Paralympians, and anyone the mainstream wearable market quietly decided wasn't the target.
