When Alice Munyua was taken ill and admitted for nine days in a hospital, she didn't imagine her experience would highlight the gaps within the medical systems, opening up gates that triggered her entrepreneurial spirit.

As fate would have it, her medical crisis was the motivator, leading to her business that focuses on health training. "I had a light bulb moment, so to speak, and I was never the same again. I recovered from the medical crisis quickly and was back to work in two months," she explained in an interview.
