Workplace menopause sessions that people actually remember

Honest, energising workplace talks that help colleagues and managers better understand perimenopause, menopause and what meaningful support at work looks like.

  • Around two-thirds of working women aged 40–60 say menopause symptoms have negatively affected their work.

  • One in six women have considered leaving work because of a lack of support with menopause symptoms.

  • Only 24% of women aged 40–60 report that their employer has a menopause policy or other support measures.

These are not abstract statistics. They are your colleagues, your managers, your high performers.

“Ali created a supportive, uplifting session that helped colleagues feel more informed and confident about menopause.” Beko

Move beyond menopause awareness

Awareness events should not rely on colleagues feeling pressured to share deeply personal experiences. As a skilled external speaker, Ali creates a safer space, builds understanding and moves the conversation towards practical support.

Ali’s sessions help:

  • Your leaders gain practical language and confidence

  • Your teams feel supported without being put on the spot

  • Your organisation protects talent, reputation and momentum

Corporate Credibility

Ali knows what it’s like to sit on the inside of a big organisation trying to get something meaningful off the ground. She’s navigated internal politics, tight budgets, leadership expectations and the unspoken rules that shape what gets approved and what doesn’t.

That experience shapes how she speaks now.

That experience means her sessions are commercially aware, strategically grounded and aligned to real workplace dynamics. She speaks your language because she has been in your world.
