Sarah Bolt is the visionary founder and CEO of Forth, a health tech company pioneering personal health management. Forth provides vital insights into biological health, empowering individuals with the knowledge to manage their wellbeing and extend their healthspan.  Ten years ago, Sarah began experiencing health changes due to perimenopause.
