Stop the silent career killer, managing menopause at work
This podcast was produced by ABC Radio National as part of the This Working Life program
Whether you are male or female, if you work with a woman over 40, menopause matters to you. And if you are a woman over 40 understanding what’s happening to your mind and body during “the change” is absolutely crucial.
Many women, including those at the top of the game, are leaving careers they love because of poor management around menopause.
We dive deep into a topic that is steeped in silence, suffering and stigma to start this important conversation.
