Episode 139 - Diabetics Doing FOUNDERS with Henrik Berggren CEO of Steady Health Diabetics Doing Things Podcast

Continuing our amazing FOUNDERS series, I’d like to introduce you to Henrik Berggren, CEO and founder of Steady Health.

Steady is a digital medical practice on your phone. Message our team or set up a video call, we’re available where it’s most convenient for you. It’s care, when you need it. They use CGM data to get you personalized diabetes care that you can get, whenever you need it! No more waiting for quarterly endocrinologist appointments — it’s honestly next level.

So I had to get to know the founder of this company, and wow am I glad I did! Henrik was diagnosed while serving in the Swedish Military (which at the time was required). Of course, he was then discharged and his life was shaken up a little bit. We talk about how life throws you curveballs and how those wild changes can lead you places you never knew you would pursue.

Henrik then turned to the startup world, and immediately took to life as a founder, and moved to Stockholm for more opportunities. He then made another jump after his company was acquired by Dropbox, and made his way to Silicon Valley and the U.S. After a few years at Dropbox, he took some time off before reentering the startup world with Steady Health.

This was a super interesting interview from a very smart, very cool person with Diabetes. I hope you enjoy!
