  • Summary

  • Melissa Sookia, founder of Live, discusses menopause, its impact on women in leadership roles, and the need for affordable treatment.

    Menopause symptoms vary and can affect productivity at work. Perimenopause starts with subtle changes like irregular periods and mood swings. Awareness is key in supporting women experiencing symptoms. Menopause can last for a 15-year period, with some women sailing through, while others may have severe symptoms.

    Lack of awareness often leads to confusion and emotional distress for women experiencing symptoms.

    We ask Melissa what can women do for themselves, and where should they go for help and direction. What should considerate employers be thinking about when it comes to discussing this thorny subject?

    Leadership Essentials:
    Melissa shares her main takeaways about what women should be thinking about:

    1. Communication: whether its your home life, or in the workplace talk about your feelings, and symptoms because you need to be heard and understood

    2. Delegate: shift some of your workload

    3. Time Management: take time, and be kind to yourself.
