The next frontier for employers in the workplace is providing comprehensive menopause support for employees going through the transition. Retaining top talent in women 40+ is an economic imperative so where do employers go to offer this care? In this episode, my guest Angela Johnson of sanoMidLife details how her company builds comprehensive menopause benefits for employers. She shares how her own journey through menopause on the job inspired her to start sanoMidLife. She discusses why offering menopause benefits is so necessary, what benefits are most needed, how to negotiate to get them, and how women can access menopause care beyond the workplace to thrive through midlife. Finally, how sanoMidLife is leveraging the power of AI to optimize care. If you're a boss, this episode is for you. If you want to give your boss a nudge to consider offering menopause benefits, send this to her or him, and if you are seeking education and care to navigate this period of your life, this episode is for you.

So, you're learning more about menopause every day, but how much does your workplace support you in your journey? Does your boss know or care what you're going through? There are 10 million women aged 40 and up in Canada. Two million are between the ages of 45 and 55, and if they're in the workplace, many are in their peak earning years. The majority of us will experience menopause symptoms that interfere with daily activities and 10% of us will leave work due to debilitating symptoms. So, how can workplaces be supportive during this period and allow us to be as productive as possible? That is the conversation in this podcast episode.

If doctors aren't getting menopause education in medical school, then where and how do they get it? Board Director at the Canadian Menopause Society and menopause specialist, Dr. Shafeena Premji takes us behind the scenes at menopause societies to tell us how they work, who reviews research and how they come to determine treatment guidelines for doctors and health care practitioners to follow. She also brings us the very latest updates from the Menopause Society's (formerly "The North American Menopause Society") annual conference.

Everyone seems to be discussing hormone therapy these days, but there is still a lot of confusion among women and doctors about who can and cannot take it. It's time to get the answers with the doctors that the other doctors go to for guidance - menopause specialists Dr. Michelle Jacobson and Dr. Iliana Lega. Why do fears about hormone therapy persist? Can someone with a history of breast cancer in their family take hormone therapy? Are there any other conditions that preclude someone from taking menopause hormone therapy? Who can take MHT, starting at what age and for how long? What about people who simply don't want to take it. What are their treatment options? The answers will surprise you.

October is Menopause Awareness Month, and in recognition of this, I’m dedicating every episode to unique and important conversations about menopause. In April, I hosted an incredible event with leading experts: Dr. Sheila Wajayasignhe, Janet Ko, founder of the Menopause Foundation of Canada, and menopause coach and fitness expert Amanda Thebe. Together, these experts tackled all the big questions:
- What is menopause, and does everyone experience it?
- How severe can the symptoms get, and are any of them dangerous?
- What treatments are available, and is hormone therapy suitable for everyone?
- How do I access proper care, and what can I do if my doctor isn’t taking me seriously?
- How can lifestyle changes help manage symptoms?
- What can I do if my mental health is suffering?
- How does menopause affect sex drive and urinary incontinence?
- Why am I gaining weight, and how can I stop it?
Plus, we addressed even more audience questions, diving deep into every aspect of this life transition. We cover it all—so tune in to listen, learn, and even share a laugh on the next episode of *Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo*.

She was the face of fashion for almost 30 years as the host of Fashion Television - the show that gave us front row seats to the biggest names in Paris, London and Milan. Jeanne Beker blazed a trail that nobody has been able to replicate ever since. Now, in her new book, "Heart on My Sleeve", she takes us into her closet and shares amazing stories each connected with a special item of clothing. From encounters and interviews with the most famous people in the world, to finding love again after two divorces, to sharing her breast cancer diagnosis and recovery. I also share the time I first saw Jeanne at work in the same building and ask her what challenges she faced coming up in the TV business. Jeanne reminds us that a life lived with fashion and substance is always in style.

Welcome to the season two premiere of Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo! I'm kicking off the season with some big time inspiration from someone who is the definition of aging powerfully: Grammy-winning singer, dancer and choreographer, Paula Abdul! At 62, she continues to tour, perform grueling shows and singing live. How does she do it? She shares her regimen including how she eats, sleeps and moves her body. In the first half of the episode, we discuss Paula's big break into showbiz, the famous family who helped launch her career and how she learned to handle fame. In the second half of the conversation, Paula talks about aging in a business that favours the young, going through menopause and managing injuries and pain at the same time. Finally, Paula shares her advice to younger women and tells us who her favourite pop stars are today, including how she helped singer-dancer Tate McRae get a start in the business. It's an inspirational start to season two of Aging Powerfully with Melissa Grelo!
