Description

Have you ever considered how menopause might be affecting your career or your workplace wellbeing? 

Many women, despite making up half of the workforce, grapple with challenges during menopause that often remain unspoken, from brain fog and fatigue to anxiety. In this episode of Real Food Stories, I address a crucial conversation around menopause in the workplace that needs to be addressed.  By sharing startling statistics and real-life experiences, we bring to light the pressing need for workplaces to become more menopause-friendly, much like they've adapted to support mental health and parental leave.

I delve into strategies that can break the silence and create a supportive environment for those navigating menopause. Encouraging open discussions with coworkers, friends, and HR departments can foster a workplace culture of understanding and compassion. This episode is a call to action for companies to recognize menopause as a legitimate workplace issue and for individuals to prioritize self-care. 

Together, we can create environments where women feel empowered to share their experiences without fear of stigma or career setbacks.
