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
“Education that’s clear, inclusive and immediately usable. We saw 100% positive feedback.” Zapier

Why book Ali?
Ali Stripling is a workplace speaker, qualified Menopause Wellness Practitioner, author of #TweakAWeek® and co-founder of The Brave Behinds.
She combines professional menopause training, lived experience of Stage 3 cancer and more than 20 years working inside organisations including Arm, Heineken, EDF Energy and MIB.
That means Ali understands workplace culture from the inside. She knows how to engage employees while also meeting the expectations of senior leaders, People teams, internal communications and employee networks.
Whether she is talking about menopause, cancer, recovery or practical wellbeing, her sessions are honest, warm, engaging and definitely not a yawn-fest.
Corporate Credibility
Before becoming a workplace speaker, Ali built her career inside global organisations including Arm, Heineken, EDF Energy and MIB, leading employee engagement, CSR, DE&I and culture programmes.
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.
Testimonials
Talking Cancer
Alongside my menopause at work sessions, I also speak openly about cancer, treatment, recovery and what happens afterwards.
My own Stage 3 anal cancer diagnosis has shaped a new strand of my work: Cancer at Work sessions, keynotes, patient advocacy, podcasts and media.
If your organisation wants to open up a more honest conversation about cancer without placing the pressure on your own colleagues to share their stories, this is where to start.
The #TweakAWeek® difference
Ali is the author of #TweakAWeek®, a practical wellbeing framework built around one simple idea: you do not need to change everything at once.
The original #TweakAWeek® book brings together 52 small, realistic lifestyle changes covering sleep, movement, nourishment, stress, hormones, mindset and confidence — all designed to fit into real life.
That same thinking runs through Ali’s workplace sessions too, so people leave with practical ideas they can actually use, rather than another overwhelming wellbeing to-do list.
You can also explore #TweakAWeek® Essentials: SLEEP, the first in a new series of focused mini-guides.
