Ep 76 | Fear and Pressure Fade When Joy Takes Over (w/ Brendah Njiru)
Update: 2025-08-21
Description
In this episode, I talk with Brendah Njiru, founder of HOMY Robotics, where she’s building emotionally intelligent humanoid robots for senior living:
With a background in neuroscience and Alzheimer’s research at Cornell, Brendah brings a rare scientific depth to robotics.
We talk about her upbringing in Kenya, her early obsession with medicine, and what pulled her into AI and hardware. She shares how she transitioned from labs to startups, why senior care is the perfect proving ground for home robotics, and how her work is grounded in real-world deployment.
Brendah also opens up about pressure, ambition, and how she's building HOMY to solve deep human problems, not just automate tasks.
