Australia's First BIPOC, Female-Led Founders Podcast. Est 2017.
Hello fellow founder,
Welcome to PEERS - a podcast by millennial founders for millennial founders. Join me, BIPOC female founder & Forbes 30 Under 30 Lister Michelle Akhidenor, for soul-enriching conversations with peers.
Each week, I sit down with a fellow founder or industry ally and deep dive into their entrepreneurial journey. I ask questions like: Where did they grow up? How has their upbringing impacted the choices they've made in their career to-date? How did they end up becoming a founder? How have they navigated through the inevitable challenges in business?
These conversations are honest, vulnerable and above all, human. My mission with this show is simple: to amplify diverse stories and voices; sharing conversations that matter to help fellow founders, my peers, feel less alone on their own journey.
Thank you for joining me, peers. Let's dive in!

This International Women’s Day 2025, Michelle sits down with Dr. Amy Divaraniya, the brains behind Oova, to unravel her entrepreneurial journey and discuss the future of women's health.
Amy’s story begins in Princeton, New Jersey, and unfolds into a narrative of innovation, determination, and resilience as she overcomes traditional expectations to create a cutting-edge fertility company.
In this episode of PEERS, Amy talks candidly about her unexpected foray into business, the challenges and triumphs of launching Oova, and how following your gut and unapologetically asking questions is the only way forward.
