The workplace can be a difficult and sometimes dangerous place for solo moms. But can you imagine dealing with the hormonal effects of your monthly cycle or symptoms of menopause while trying to fit in at work?

Women, especially women going through menopause are outnumbered in the boardroom and all signs point to the fact that talking about the symptoms of menopause or even mentioning that you have hot flashes can be career suicide.

Kind of strange right?

Dr. Nancy Belcher breaks down the symptoms of menopause and how hormone therapy can help to master hormonal imbalance during menopause.

Regardless of the stigma associated with hormonal changes in our bodies the onus is on us to own our experience and not be timid to talk about what we're going through.

Nancy also encourages moms to talk openly with their daughters about the stages women go through especially from puberty to menopause.

Don't Parent in Silence

Hello Solo Moms. As a solo mom of three adult sons, I understand the challenges you face on a daily basis. As a mentor, my mission is to help you shift your mindset and empower you to take control of your life, to see yourself as God sees you. I know that unresolved trauma can be a heavy burden to carry and parenting alone can be a lonely journey, but it doesn't have to be that way. I want you to know that you are not alone. You have the strength and resilience to overcome your challenges and create the life you desire.
