Cyprus Mail names her among five speakers at the event, whose theme was "Local Legends: From Passion to Change".
Natallia Miranchuk, founder of Soula, was one of the speakers at TEDxMolos, held on March 27, 2024, at the Plevsis Hall in Limassol's Old Port. Cyprus Mail reported on the event on April 5, 2024, and said she "brought a new angle to maternity, weaving it with creativity".

Cyprus Mail Lists Five Speakers and the Theme "Local Legends"
Cyprus Mail, a media partner of TEDxMolos, gives the theme as "Local Legends: From Passion to Change" and the start time as 18:30. Its report lists five speakers: Philippos Aristotelous, Dr Marianna Prokopi-Demetriades, Stylianos Lambrou, Nataliia Miranchuk and Sofia Popovidou. It names Gala Grigoreva, Chief Marketing Officer at Adsterra, as the organiser behind the event.
The Talk Links Motherhood to the Artistic Process
The description on the TEDx Talks YouTube page says the talk looks at motherhood and how societal norms can diminish mothers' agency and joy. Miranchuk draws parallels to the artistic process and advocates for guidance and empowerment for mothers, it says. TEDx Talks published the page on April 29, 2024. The description adds that the talk was given at a TEDx event "using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community".
The Speaker Profile Cites 15 Years in Maternal Health and Support
The same description and the TED event page say she has over 15 years of experience in maternal health and support. She began by introducing newborn photography to former Soviet countries and had extensive interactions with over 3500 newborns and their families, according to both pages. Both pages add that she led educational initiatives in Belarus, Lithuania, Milan and Miami, working with organisations including UNFPA and USAID.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, she and her team built an online educational platform. The description says it gained a user base of over 250,000 women within two years.
The Profile Says She Launched Soula After Moving to Cyprus in 2022
The profile says she moved to Cyprus in 2022 and launched Soula, which it calls:
the first Safe and Compassionate AI for Pregnancy and Maternity
It says Soula gives expectant mothers and new parents support through pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. The profile adds that Soula puts the well-being of the mother first, unlike conventional pregnancy trackers.
