The Madison Club
Menopause is more than a midlife milestone—it is a significant health transition that can affect women's physical, emotional, and cognitive well-being, often during the peak of their careers. From perimenopause through postmenopause, symptoms such as sleep disruption, brain fog, anxiety, fatigue, hot flashes, and changes in confidence can influence workplace performance, leadership, and overall quality of life.
This session will explore the stages of menopause, the health changes women experience, and the often-overlooked impact these changes can have on career advancement, workplace engagement, and professional success.
Whether you are experiencing menopause yourself, leading a team, or looking to better support colleagues, this session will provide valuable insights, resources, and actionable takeaways for navigating this important phase of women's health and careers.
