Presented by Amanda Haddaway, MA, MJ, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, Certified Menopause Coaching Specialist

 August 19 |  11 AM ET |  Virtual via Zoom


 Pre-approved for 1 SHRM recertification credit

 

Why this matters:


Perimenopause affects millions of professional women—yet it's often misunderstood or ignored in the workplace. Symptoms like brain fog, sleep disruptions, and anxiety can impact performance and well-being. In fact, 1 in 4 women consider leaving their jobs due to menopause-related issues.

 

In this engaging, research-backed webinar, Amanda will explore:

 

· The cognitive, emotional, and physical symptoms of perimenopause and how they show up at work

· Recent federal and state policy developments shaping how employers address menopause in the workplace

· What leading companies are doing to retain and support midlife women

· A practical 4-part framework to help employees and HR professionals thrive through this transition

 

Whether you're experiencing these changes yourself or supporting others who are, this session will equip you with tools to lead with empathy, strategy, and compliance.
