Culturally Tailored Care for Thai Women Abroad with Nicha Group | Blush & Bloom Podcast | Ep. 10
Description
#WomensHealth #DiasporaHealth #ThaiCommunity
In this episode, we sit down with Natnicha, founder of Nicha Group, a health and wellness brand supporting Thai women across the UK and EU. Her work blends culturally tailored supplements, health education, and community building to close healthcare gaps for minority ethnic women, especially Thai women living abroad.
Natnicha shares her journey as part of the Thai diaspora, why many women feel unseen in healthcare systems, and how trust and cultural understanding play a vital role in better outcomes. What began as a single product during COVID has grown into a brand bringing community-driven care, weekly education sessions in Thai, and compassionate support to thousands of women.
We discuss the challenges diaspora women face—from language barriers to cultural beliefs—why social media is a powerful tool for health education, and the importance of trust in lasting change. Natnicha also shares her vision for supporting other underrepresented communities and inspiring more female leadership in health and wellness.
Whether you’re navigating healthcare in a new country, working in women’s health, or passionate about inclusive care, this episode offers insight and practical lessons.
