#120 - Breaking the Stigma: Menopause in the Workplace with Lauren Chiren


Listen Later

Juggling menopause and a career is incredibly exhausting when you’re faced with the often unpredictable challenges of sleep issues, brain fog, and “crime-scene” periods as I like to call them. 

In this episode, I chat with Lauren Chiron, founder of Women of a Certain Stage, about turning menopause from a taboo topic into one of empowerment in the workplace.

Lauren and I explore how job design, recruitment, and HR systems can support menopausal employees. She shares insights on using engagement surveys, training managers, and fostering open dialogue. We also discuss the benefits of social events and peer support groups. I invite you to join us if you want to advocate for a more menopause-friendly workplace.

And if you want to share your experience-positive or negative about navigating menopause and your career, I’d love to hear from you! Just click the link at the top here and send me a text!
