How can STEM-led organisations retain brilliant talent and create workplaces where experienced
women can thrive?
This podcast series explores menopause in STEM workplaces, with a focus on helping leaders
retain experienced women and build more supportive, inclusive organisations.
Across ten practical, thought-provoking episodes, explore why menopause is a business, leadership
and talent-retention issue, and what leaders can do about it.
Discover why experienced women may reduce their hours or leave, how menopause affects everyone
differently, and how to create an environment where people feel supported without having to share
more than they wish. Learn how to have respectful, confidential conversations, make meaningful
workplace adjustments and challenge stigma. With honest stories, fresh perspectives and actionable
insights, the series explores how leaders, women and men alike, can drive lasting cultural change.
Designed especially for women in STEM leadership, this series will equip you to turn awareness into
action, support your people and help retain the experience and expertise STEM needs.
THIS Kind of Menopause is all about feeling informed, prepared and empowered to have the kind of
menopause that’s seen as the next chapter of life, not a burden, something to dread, or a career
limiting life stage. It’s also a time to be kind to ourselves and that starts with talking about our
experiences and learning to advocate for ourselves.
Combining workplace guidance, statistics and personal stories, the series’ central message is that
menopause does not make women less capable. With greater awareness, better conversations and
thoughtful support, STEM organisations can retain valuable expertise and enable women to continue
thriving throughout their careers.
Press play and discover how leadership can make a difference.
