It's ok to talk about this.
October is World Menopause Month so in episode 3 of the IOR Women in RACHP Network Podcast we talk to Bev Thorogood a trainer specialising in menopause awareness.
Menopause is still something of a taboo subject but in this episode, we have a frank discussion about how to help yourself, colleagues and staff who are dealing with it. Bev Thorogood, a trainer specialising in menopause awareness, shares hints and tips on how companies can support staff dealing with the large and diverse range of symptoms, employment rights and how to ask for help at work if you're struggling. We also discuss what menopause is, treatment options and how menopause can impact working women because it’s good to talk and as Bev says "the struggle is real, ladies"
The Podcast is available on Podbean, Spotify and Amazon Music
