Dr. Kudzai Dombo, MD, is a distinguished board-certified obstetrician-
gynecologist. Dr. Dombo’s initial inspiration was her father’s internal medicine practice in Zimbabwe where she observed firsthand the respect and impact her father had on his patients, particularly at a time when women’s voices in Zimbabwe were often marginalized. Over the last two years, she has committed to caring for women in midlife and through the menopausal transition. She works with Alloy Health as a prescribing physician and became the Director of Advocacy and Outreach. Alongside Dr. Sharon Malone, she launched Alloy Health’s initiative for black women’s wellness. On this episode of The Vault Dr. Dombo discusses how black women can take care of their health in midlife by learning about the higher cardiac risks and more severe menopause outcomes that they experience compared to other groups, yet Black women are the least likely to get treatment and support and are often excluded from the menopause
conversation.

 What are the differences in how women of color experience menopause and perimenopause?
 How to advocate better healthcare with my healthcare professional?
 Ways to include Black women in the menopause conversation?
 How to prevent worsened physical health outcomes during menopause?

Balanda Atis is a pioneering cosmetic scientist and chemist. When Atis realized that there were limited options for women of color in terms of foundation tones, she started a project with L’Oreal to study skin tones across the world. Her work led to the discovery that ultramarine was the tone needed to create rich and deeper shades of brown without leaving a muddy finish. Her pioneering work led to the foundations that actress Lupita Nyong’o wore in ads for Lancome. Elle magazine named Atis as one of the 10 Black Women Making History and her work in expanding shades of makeup led to brands such as Armani, Lancome, Maybelline and Urban Decay expanding their marketing of products to women of color.

Atis joins us on the vault to inspire other women of color to take charge and create passion products that uplift and inspire their communities. We are honoring Atis because she is a Caribbean-American Black woman who has made us all feel more beautiful from the inside out.
