Menopause affects every aspect of a woman’s life — yet it’s often misunderstood, minimized, or overlooked in healthcare and in the workplace.
During a recent webinar, I learned some eye-opening statistics from :
* 75% of women who seek menopause care don’t receive effective treatment because of inadequate provider training.
*On average, women make 4 appointments before finding relief.
*This healthcare navigation failure costs $1,169 per employee per year in lost productivity from medical visits alone.
*And 1 in 10 women leave their jobs due to untreated menopause symptoms — contributing to $26.6 billion in annual productivity losses.
These numbers tell an important story — but I want to hear the human stories behind them.
I’m currently gathering insights from women in perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause (within the past 5–10 years) to better understand how this transition affects health, emotions, and work performance.
Your experience can help shape more supportive workplaces and better conversations about women’s health.

I'm on a mission to help make menopause something women are supported through — not something they have to suffer through.
