From a 3am DM to a 9,000-person movement

So many of you are new here - and with the recent growth of this newsletter to 9,000 people, I wanted to go back to the beginning and share how this all started.

Hi! I’m Jodi Neuhauser. I’m a four-time founder of women’s health companies, and over the last 19 years, I’ve hired hundreds of people across industries - media, hospitality, sports, and now healthcare.

When I left my last company, Ovaterra, I was supposed to be taking a break.

But then I went to a women’s health conference to see my women’s health founder friends.

And like many good stories, this one started with a bathroom conversation.

Founders kept pulling me aside - in hallways, on staircases, between panels - asking:
“Do you know a Head of Engineering?”
“Can you intro a great Chief of Staff?”
“You know everyone — who do you have?”

At the same time, I was getting DMs from people who had just been laid off - many from Twitter or tech - asking how to break into women’s health. LinkedIn was lighting up with the same thing: about 10 people a week reaching out with “I want to work in this space. Can you help?”

So I did what any founder does: I made a list.

I opened a Google Doc, pulled together every role I’d heard about over the last two days, and sent it to everyone who’d reached out to me in the last month.

At 3 a.m. — where most of my best ideas come from — I threw it into Substack, named it Hiring Wednesday, and posted it to LinkedIn.

The next morning, 600 people had signed up.

And that was the beginning of this newsletter.

I just kept writing it. Every week. No team, no strategy — just a deep belief that people deserved clarity, connection, and community in this space. Eventually we re-branded to In Women’s Health (thanks to Robin Sodaro!).

Today, that list has grown to over 9,000 professionals across the women’s health ecosystem: founders, clinicians, job seekers, investors, researchers, marketers, and more.

We hosted virtual meetups. Held open office hours. Eventually built a private Slack group - now one of the most online active women’s health communities in the world.

But what kept surfacing was this:
People didn’t actually know how the business of women’s health worked.

It was holding them back in interviews, especially in a competitive market. They were making early mistakes building new companies and inserting elements of risk in investments they were making.

So I went back to my roots.

As a kid, I played school. I was always the teacher. My cousins and sister were the students. I even used my uncle’s truck door as a chalkboard - carving “CARPANGEL” into the paint with a rock while my class sat patiently learning. (He was… not thrilled.)

That love of teaching never left. It shows up in how I lead, how I share, and how I build.

So I decided to teach and The Women’s Health Mini-MBA was born.

A year ago, we launched something the industry never had - a practical, strategic, business-focused deep dive into how women’s health actually works.

It started with a pilot cohort. The feedback was immediate: This is what we’ve been missing.

Since then, over 200 professionals have graduated from the Mini-MBA — including:

  • The former Global Head of Women’s Health at P&G and major investors from places like LCatterton and more

  • Leaders at major payers and health systems

  • Startup execs, clinicians, funders, and future builders

It’s a 6-week experience, co-taught by me and Rachel Braun Scherl — an absolute powerhouse who has built, invested in, advised, and sold multiple companies in women’s health.

In 6 weeks we cover:

  • The American Healthcare System & The Women’s Health Ecosystem

  • Providers: Care delivery

  • Payers: Reimbursement and payment models

  • Product and Marketing strategy

  • Finance & Business Models

  • Regulation, legal, policy, and data

And how it all connects.

Each week we are joined by some of the smartest people in the field — like Colleen Foster (Amboy Street Ventures), Trish Costello (Portfolia), Hope Yates (Head of Women’s Health Strategy at Columbia University Medical Center), seasoned clinicians, and rising founders on the front lines of change.

Here’s what students say they walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of how the industry works

  • Confidence to make a career pivot or scale their venture

  • A network of peers and mentors that actually get it

  • Frameworks, tools, and real-world strategies they use daily

Want to see what it’s like?

It’s for anyone working, building, investing, or hoping to transition into women’s health.
We’ll walk through the landscape and share what we’ve learned from hundreds of conversations.

Thanks for reading along.

Each week I try to keep this newsletter focused on providing real value — not promotion or sales. I hope this doesn’t feel like either. But I’m deeply proud of what we've built here.

The faster we all understand the economics and system failures within women’s health, the faster we can move — individually and collectively. Rachel and I have made plenty of mistakes, learned a lot of shortcuts, and have over 60 years of combined experience in this space. We love sharing it so that you can go further, faster — and build the future this field deserves.

Because the system won’t fix itself. But we will.
—Jodi

PS - The next Women’s Health Mini-MBA cohort starts in two weeks.

We’ve already accepted 10 participants and cap it at 40. This is one of only two chances to join in 2025.

The System is Broken. Let’s Fix It. Join The Conversation For An Exclusive Invite

Mapping the Broken System: What We’ve Heard — and What’s Next

Live Community Conversation: Friday August 1, 2:30 EST

Did you see the LinkedIn post that outlines close to 100 failures in women’s health?
We’ll walk through the early patterns from these crowd-sourced responses on how the women’s health system is broken. We’ll unpack systemic failures across pre-care, care, and post-care, and invite attendees to help shape what comes next.

Attendees will also receive an invitation to join us in stealth as we prepare to launch something that addresses these system failures head-on.

We can’t fix what we don’t fully see.
Let’s map it — and rebuild it — together.

Term of the Week: Value Based Care

We’re all about education here—so each week, we’re breaking down one key term you should know to navigate the world of women’s health with confidence and clarity.

What it means:
Value-Based Care (VBC) is a model that shifts healthcare payments from the traditional fee-for-service approach (where providers are paid per visit/procedure) to a system that rewards outcomes, quality, and cost-efficiency.

Value-Based Care Penetration refers to how much of a healthcare organization’s revenue or patient population is covered under value-based contracts — rather than fee-for-service.

Why it matters in women’s health:
Women’s health has historically been underrepresented in VBC innovation — but that’s starting to change.

As more payers and providers move toward VBC, understanding how VBC penetration impacts provider behavior, care design, and patient access is essential.

Do you want to write a guest-post for us on value-based care to teach our audience more? Email us at [email protected].

Example: A health system with 50% VBC penetration is getting paid for outcomes (like healthier pregnancies or reduced ER visits) for half its patients. The other half are still billed per visit or service. This shift in incentives can drive investments in prevention, care coordination, and patient engagement.
