The everyday conversation
In the last two years Menopause has had unprecedented coverage and conversation. Davina McCall has shone a light on the wide-ranging negative side effects and more and more women are speaking out about the negative impact of their symptoms on their lives. These symptoms don’t only impact the lives of women but their families, colleagues and customers.
We believe that a better level of understanding of Menopause enables businesses to support their employees in bringing their best selves to work. This short course enables all employees to better understand Menopause for themselves, their families and their colleagues.
We also enable leaders to have open and supportive conversations about topics that may be uncomfortable, signposting for more specialist support and understanding the legal position of adjusting work life to accommodate real life.

Understanding for everyone
Traditionally, menopause has been discussed only by women approaching middle age, with few resources for partners and children. Experts say that’s a mistake, because the more openly menopause is talked about, the less stress menopausal people — women, gender-neutral people and transgender men with ovaries may experience symptoms of menopause — will feel as they traverse the physical and emotional changes they’re experiencing.
That’s especially important now, with pandemic-associated depression and anxiety potentially exacerbating this difficult part of aging.
Supporting the wider family and colleagues to understand menopause will enable everyone to better support those who are affected by it, directly or indirectly.

Serious food for thought.
Sometimes, you feel like you’ve lost your marbles so badly that you are unable to continue [your work],' she says.
'Now imagine the drain on businesses and the economy if 13 million women leave their jobs because they just felt like they couldn’t continue.’
Serious food for thought.
