    From Struggle to Strength: How Menopause Jen Transformed Negative Workplace Experience into Empowerment
    2025/09/10
    If you’ve ever felt like your workplace was unsupportive when it comes to the menopause, then this episode is for you. This week’s guest is Jen Francis, known on TikTok as Menopause Jen Official, who walked away from her role as a digital marketing manager when a lack of menopause support and outdated attitudes from her employer made it impossible to stay. Since then, Jen has created a growing community where women share hacks, tips and real-life experiences to support each other through midlife and menopause, proving that there's strength in numbers. We talk about why she left her job, the menopause-related challenges she faced at work, and how she's using her platform to empower others. Jen Discusses The lack of understanding and support in the workplace The feelings of isolation and frustration that can result from this. How symptoms such as migraines, palpitations, and fatigue can severely affect a woman's ability to perform at work. The lack of acknowledgment and support from employers and how they can exacerbate health issues, leading to a decline in mental health and job satisfaction How flexible working options can be crucial for women dealing with menopause symptoms. The pressing need for menopause policies and education within organisations How managers may dismiss symptoms or fail to provide necessary support, which can lead to negative workplace experiences for affected employees. How building communities can empower women to share their experiences and support one another BEST MOMENTS "I thought, oh, God, they're not going to be good about it. But they actually were." "I was surprised, you know, someone in her 40s, I thought she must be in perimenopause.” "I had to keep pestering doctors to get fit notes." "I think it's given me a chance to focus on me and decide what I want to do at 52." "If you support your staff, you're gonna be more productive."

  • Debunking Menopause Myths: Dr. Sooj's Evidence-Based Approach to Women's Health

    Debunking Menopause Myths: Dr. Sooj's Evidence-Based Approach to Women's Health
    2025/09/03
    In a world where health myths about menopause can spread faster than the truth, how do you know who to trust? This week on the show, Michelle is joined by the amazing Dr Sooj, the renowned health content creator whose educational videos have helped to tackle medical misinformation, and make guidance relatable and accessible to everyone through such channels as the NHS, the Department of Health and Social Care, the World Health Organisation and the BBC. Dr Sooj talks all things menopause care, from understanding the difference between perimenopause and menopause, how it's diagnosed, treatment options including HRT and non-hormonal alternatives, and how to get the most from your GP appointment Dr Sooj Reveals The crucial differences between perimenopause, menopause, and postmenopause The vital role GPs play in menopause management, but also how their knowledge can vary. Why it's essential for patients to have open conversations with their doctors about menopause and to seek referrals if their GP lacks expertise in this area. How lifestyle choices significantly impact menopause symptoms. How addressing these factors can help alleviate issues like hot flushes, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Why Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) can be beneficial for managing menopause symptoms Why there is still a stigma associated with discussing menopause-related issues, particularly genitourinary symptoms like vaginal dryness and painful sex BEST MOMENTS "Misinformation spreads so quickly on social media. I just started making content... to simplify complicated concepts into a series of short videos." "Menopause just refers to an absence of periods. Perimenopause usually refers to when the symptoms start, but your periods are still happening." "There should be more training for GPs regarding women's health or menopause in particular, especially as we're half the population?" "It's about having that conversation with your doctor and being open to them also not being experts in everything."
