    Welcome to High-Potential Start-Ups, season 1, episode 1!

    In this episode, Nick Ross, co-founder of Cavenagh Health, is joined by Shardi Nahavandi, CEO and Co-founder at Tuune. 

    During this inspiring conversation, Shardi reveals the personal story behind starting Tuune, why she hires for mindset over skillset, and why Tuune is fundamentally a learning company. 

    Interestingly, Shardi started her career in sustainable architecture but after becoming jaded with the industry, she decided to change her career path to health tech. During her studies, however, she struggled to get treatment for a health issue. Combining this struggle with her self proclaimed “allergic reaction to justice” led to the birth of Tuune. 

    Alongside this story, this episode is packed with insight into start-up life in the health tech space.
