Why Menopause Could Be The Best Thing That Happens to You
Menopause may have been the best thing to happen to her.
In this episode, senior banking executive Sunday joins hosts Uma and Jingjin for one of the most disarmingly honest conversations the show has aired. Sunday talks about how menopause removed the social constraints that had been slowing her down, how parenting a daughter with ADHD rewrote the way she leads teams at one of the world's largest banks, and why investing in your boss relationship matters as much as the quality of your work.
What’s more, you’ll end the episode with a set of frameworks on boundaries and standards that you can use starting right now!
What You'll Learn
Why menopause made Sunday more fearless in the boardroom and what she tells her team
How Sunday's ADHD parenting diagnosis reframed what emotional regulation actually is
The exact line Sunday draws between apologizing for your delivery and never apologizing for your standards
The Dr. Becky Kennedy reframe Sunday now applies to her banking teams every day
Sunday's three-part framework for building a boss relationship that actually advances your career
