Teaching Through Perimenopause: What No One Talks About


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of The Teacher’s Compass, I’m opening up a conversation that far too many women in education are silently struggling with - perimenopause.

If you’ve been feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, emotional, forgetful, or just not yourself lately, this episode is for you. You’ll hear:

  • What perimenopause actually is and how it can affect your body and mind

  • The subtle ways symptoms show up in the classroom and impact your confidence, focus and relationships

  • Why so many women feel like they’re “burning out” when in fact their hormones are changing

  • Simple, practical steps to support yourself, and how colleagues and schools can help too

  • My own story of navigating perimenopause as a teacher, and what I wish I’d known sooner

This is a topic we need to talk about more openly. Because when women understand what’s really going on, they can get the help and compassion they deserve and make choices that truly support their wellbeing.

🎧 Tune in now to feel seen, supported and empowered to take back control of your health and happiness.
