Women’s Health Revolution: How Muji Bekomson Is Mothering a New System Into Existence

podcast May 18, 2026


Background
share close

“She didn’t wait for the system to catch up. She built a new one.”

In this episode of our May series, She Who Mothers: Redefining Legacy, Love & Lineage, host Deneen L. Garrett sits down with Muji Bekomson — Medical Laboratory Scientist, Founder of FEMME Health Companion, and Top 50 Voice in African Tech — to explore what happens when a woman stops waiting to be heard and starts building what should have existed all along.

When a doctor dismissed Muji’s severe symptoms with “just get pregnant,” she didn’t rage at the system. She mothered a new one into existence. FEMME Health Companion was born from lived experience — and it is changing what women’s health support looks like when it centers a woman’s reality, not clinical convenience.

Inside the Episode:

  • How medical dismissal became the turning point that sparked a movement
  • What Invisible Tech really means — and why it meets women where they are
  • Why most health apps fail women and what empathy-driven design looks like instead
  • The power of small steps over perfection in reclaiming your health
