S6 | Episode 10 | Sahana Gopal, PhD of Wild.ai: Beyond The Male Lens: How Wild.ai Puts Women At The Centre of Technology

Published: March 28, 2023, noon

Wild.ai  is the app that helps women optimise their daily training intensity, duration and recovery. Users receive nutrition adjustments around their training, based on their hormonal fluctuations and learn how their body and physiological needs change across their cycles and life stages.

In this episode, Head of Product Sahana Gopal, PhD, sat down with Chris to discuss how Wild.ai are breaking the mould by putting women at the forefront of their technology and are consciously moving away from building products through a male lens. 

Sahana talks through her unique path into Product Management and how she transitioned from her career as a Strength and Conditioning Coach for British Swimming.

Finally, Sahana discusses how she is able to navigate her leadership position as someone who is non-technical, how Wild.ai have built a team that has a female majority and is intentionally lean, and, how this has impacted their capabilities for product growth.
