Similarly, women\u2019s reproductive health is also already well-represented and supported by fellow Web3 org,\u00a0[AthenaDAO](https://www.athenadao.co/).\n\n2/ Women\u2019s fertility and body autonomy is often politicized. We don\u2019t want to add to that. Instead, we see women\u2019s health as a holistic approach to providing women the opportunity for wellness in everyday life. We want to see a world where women can access life-changing modalities without a doctor framing her choice with her body\u2019s ability to conceive. We hope you\u2019ll join us.\n\n# THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT! \u2665\ufe0f\n\n## Resources\n\n\ud83c\udf10 [Website](https://asteriskdao.xyz)\n\n\ud83d\udc26 [Twitter](https://asteriskdao.xyz)\n\n\ud83d\udcf8 [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/asteriskdao)\n\n\u2712\ufe0f [OnePage]([https://www.notion.so/asteriskdao/AsteriskDAO-One-Pager-53c3baea512a45b29f7eff9850c12bc1?pvs=4](https://www.notion.so/AsteriskDAO-One-Pager-53c3baea512a45b29f7eff9850c12bc1?pvs=21))", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "AsteriskDAO", "projectTwitter": "asteriskdao"}, "recipient": "0x5726f409A9F689Fb4dF52dCE0f6161DeE4Fd9314"}}
