Milena Nowaczewska

All right, what's your name? Milena. Nice to meet you guys. And what do you do? I'm a chief of staff at Mos Health. And Mos Health, what's Mos Health? So you're basically like an AI health partner. We aggregate all the contents. You have blood work, wearables, you can have whoop, you can have Apple Watch, you have Aura. We still integrate everything and give you like the smallest action you can do every single day with the highest relevance to make you feel healthier and perform better. And we also have supplements. And being chief of staff, you are the glue that holds everything together. As a founder, they are just crazy. How do you hold your founders together? So I would say it's a really cool job because you are very exposed to like everything that's happening. So I would say I'm like a pre-founder in a sense because I'm exposed to like everything, but I still don't have like the whole responsibility. So I'm like an emotional partner, like I'm executed at the same time, you know, I'm trying to be there like in emotional support. Yeah. Are you going to build a company after being chief of staff? I will. But like, let me tell you, being a chief of staff and having this exposure showed me how hard it is because I feel like right now, being a CEO, being a founder in like the AI era, the entry level is like so low, everyone can build a company. And I feel like I had this impression, it's like super easy to do so. Like, why am I not doing this? But being so exposed, I'm like, s***, like this is actually hard. I have my respect for every founder. So I think I will. And I feel like it's like the best class. And like the best lesson you can have. Yeah. So it sounds like when things get hard, you get a lot more comfortable. And once you've done that over and over again, that becomes easy for you. Yes. And then you can stay two minutes in cold plunge and have a conversation with like 50 % of my brain capacity. But still being able to hold the conversation, you know, chief of staff role made me build for this. Build for this. And what's next for Mos Health? Sorry? What is next for Mos Health? Being a one billion company, you know, make everyone healthier, perform better and just like happier at the workplace and beyond. How would you get there? So we're going to get there by just being in the offices and by bringing people more together because it's not only like being healthier, but also like being together and being healthier as a group, as a collective. So I feel like it's our next step to get as many people as we can and then just do it together from the scratch. And you sell to consumers. So what brings you here to the sauna right now? So we actually do B2B benefit for like employees. So it's like more like B2B, but also like B2C. So I would say it's like both, you know, we sell to funders, we sell to like HR, to people who want to work for teams that want to perform better. But we also sell to consumers, especially supplements. People love to take supplements here in the U .S., have like really good supplements. This is San Francisco after all. Where are you from? From Poland. Poland. Born and raised. What brought you here to San Francisco? I would say ambition and optimism. I love how like Americans are open and especially Silicon Valley is just built on immigrants. And everyone here is like so delusional. I'm very delusional myself. I just love to talk with people because every single conversation gives me so much inspiration. I was like. Talk with people like, oh, s***, like you do this like that's crazy. I actually have a friend and he's such a believer and he's such a hard worker. I'm sure he's going to be first person on Mars just because he has like belief. He's delusional and he also puts the hard work in it. And how do you meet these people? I would say I'm just like very open. I just talk to people, you know, you never know who you're going to meet. Sometimes like a one small conversation in the store or like post office can change your entire life. So I would say just like talk to everyone. Don't assume and just like be open and curious. You must have sponsored a lot of events. Why do you guys sponsor so many events? Because that's a very good question, actually. So first of all, we want to like meet as many people, meet as many founders, talk with them, like see how they deal with performance, but also health. And also, I feel like we have just like a little mission in our hearts, just like bring people together and be healthy together. Because at the end of the day, like you can have all the wealth, but if you don't have health, like it's not worth nothing, you know? Yeah. And why is events so important for your growth? Events are very important because people can actually meet us and see us. And especially here, it's like the competition here is like just crazy. And when you can actually go to them, like, hey, guys, like we actually want to meet you as a person, like see what you need, because you may not need our, you know, our solution. But let's talk and see. And I think it's like events are the best thing right now to like just like do like an offline distribution is very important, especially in this like AI slow. But in general, like with all the advertisement, we're like so overwhelmed. Well, whenever I open. My email, there's so many like emails. I'm like, oh, like this solution is great, but I feel like when you can do an event and like invite people to your space and show the product, because we also do supplements, it's a physical product so people can see the supplements, they can try. I feel like it's a great solution.
