Educate Your Team This World Menopause Month.
Educate your team this October about menopause and create an inclusive environment.
World Menopause Awareness Month lands in October 2023 and it is a chance to educate people on menopause and most importantly spread awareness on how to tackle it whether you’re experiencing it or helping someone else. We encourage professionals and companies to participate in this global awareness raising campaign by organising events to engage their communities, and sharing World Menopause Day social media posts about these events. You can book one of these events on our platform, we have a wide range of talks and workshops that shed light on many different angles of menopause. All experiences are hosted by nutritionists and menopause experts.
October 18th is World Menopause Awareness Day and it has a theme every year. This year the theme is cardiovascular disease due to the fact that hormonal changes associated with menopause can have wide-ranging impacts on cardiovascular health. Our talks and workshops are a great way to shed light on symptoms and side effects such as this. It can be hugely impactful to invite staff members to share their own experiences of the menopause (if they feel comfortable) or to just share information with them to benefit their experiences and understanding of them.
Take a look at our activities for World Menopause Awareness Month and Day below, they are easy to facilitate and can be hosted both virtually and in-person for your team in the UK or across the globe.
Our experts.
Rebekah.
Rebekah was turned away by her GP because she was ‘too young’ to have symptoms of menopause and that her symptoms were most likely to be burn-out or depression. So, she found herself trawling the aisles of the local health food store, staring at a vast range of products and ingredients she knew nothing about. Curiosity cut through the brain fog. She looked further into the bio-chemical changes the female body goes through in menopause and started to take charge of her understanding. Armed with insight, and a growing sense of frustration that women were under-served with honest information and better options, she created her own supplement brand. With the learnings she’s taken from her years of research, Rebekah is now sharing her wealth of knowledge to educate women experiencing these changes, those who will experience the menopause in the future, and those who can support better with awareness.

After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease in 2012, she took radical changes and transformed her health, expanded her knowledge of her own body and found her passion: helping others develop understanding of their own health and supporting them through their journey.

A fun deep dive into the brilliance of female biology, the distinct biochemical stages our bodies go through in menopause, the impact and how to nourish your body and mind, with leading naturopath, herbalist and lifestyle medicine practitioner Dr Vera Martins and midlife community founder and narrative researcher, Rebekah Brown.
Executive Empathy Training.
According to research by the Think Tank Gen M, 88% of females wish their employers offered more support for menopause. This workshop is designed to provide greater understanding of the biochemical transition of menopause and the implications for performance in work for managers and leaders and is led by our executive career coach, Henny Flynn and hosted by Rebekah Brown. With an emphasis on the value and potential of females in midlife, we provide perspective on best practice for menopause policies from our extensive work with Corporates as well as practical tools for individuals to feel confident in delivering better support.
Let’s Talk About Nutrition & Menopause.
This talk will discuss the journey to menopause, how to manage the transition, what hormones are and how they change, perimenopause and top nutrition and lifestyle recommendations to support hormonal health. Led by our nutritionist Caroline, it is a great experience for any team with a nutrition and inclusivity initiative.
A Good Night’s Sleep Starts In The Morning.
Around 60% of us will struggle with sleep during menopause. And, during your midlife transition, the standard sleep hygiene tips are unlikely to touch the sides. Explore the latest science behind why this transitory phase impacts our ability to rest and what really works to address it, with our leading sleep and circadian rhythm team and midlife community founder and narrative researcher, Rebekah Brown.
Menopause & Cognitive Function.
Reported to be the most debilitating symptom of menopause in the workplace, brain fog or impaired cognitive function can lead to imposter syndrome, anxiety - and, if not addressed head on, too many talented people leaving the workforce in menopause. In this Masterclass we explore why brain fog and anxiety happens and the tools and practices you can introduce to continue to thrive with our executive career coach Henny Flynn and midlife community founder and narrative researcher, Rebekah Brown.
