Every founder talks about product-market fit. Fewer talk about reimbursement-market fit, distribution, and the operational infrastructure required to scale inside healthcare. In this conversation, I sit down with Andrea Ippolito, founder and CEO of SimpliFed, to unpack what it actually takes to build a venture-backed healthcare company in one of the most overlooked areas of medicine: postpartum care. Andrea shares how her own experience becoming a mother led her to identify a massive market hiding behind what many dismissed as a "niche" problem. We discuss why she intentionally built inside the healthcare system rather than around it, how regulatory complexity became a competitive advantage, and why founders often underestimate the power of focused execution.
