About Isha Vela

Isha Vela (she/they/feral) is a somatic psychologist, financial strategist, matriarchal wealth activist and founder of the Wealth Ecology Institute, where she teaches women to steward money in service of land, lineage, and legacy.

Isha helps women get feral with their money: shedding scarcity and individualism, building redistribution portfolios instead of empire portfolios. She believes the land is not an asset, but a relative, and that a satisfied woman is ungovernable.

Isha is a queer, world schooling parent of 2 neurospicy teens savoring a minimalist life.

• Why contraception should be collective responsibility
• The shift that happens when you stop the pill
• How to evaluate "non-hormonal" options
• The pharmaceutical industry's response to declining pill use
• Nature's collective design of fertility

About Eirini Rapti

Eirini started inne in 2017 motivated by her own desire to use natural contraception, but realised that traditional natural fertility methods were almost impossible to use reliably in real life. She was determined to find a way of leveraging technology to enable all women to have a greater understanding of their bodies and take control of their contraceptive choices, so that they could make the most of their careers and relationships. Eirini set about developing a saliva biosensor device that enables women to identify and predict the fertile phase in their natural cycle. Based on her own experience and through multiple user interviews, Eirini understood that a new product had to be compatible with a busy daily life, simple and hygienic to use, and more insightful than the period-tracking apps already on the market.

About Karissa Bollinger

Karissa is a physiologist, birth worker, and founder of WaveWork™, a method that bridges biomechanics, nervous system science, and altered states of consciousness to prepare the body for birth. Her work reframes labor as an initiated state of expanded awareness and teaches women how to condition their physiology for intensity, coherence, and trust. After supporting hundreds of women through birth, trauma healing, and psychedelic integration, Karissa created WaveWork™ to bring the body back to the center of birth. She’s passionate about helping women rehearse intensity before they meet it, rewire their nervous systems for safety, and return to their power as creators of life.
