In this powerful and insightful episode, Dr Andrew Greenland is joined by Lauren Chiren, founder and CEO of Women of a Certain Stage, to explore the often-overlooked intersection of menopause and professional life. With lived experience of early menopause and a high-flying career in financial services, Lauren left the corporate world to become a leading global advocate for menopause awareness and education.
Lauren shares her personal journey, the challenges she faced, and how those experiences fuelled her mission to ensure no one is left navigating menopause alone. Together, we discuss practical strategies for individuals going through the menopause transition and how organisations can become truly menopause-inclusive—boosting wellbeing, retention, and performance in the process.
Whether you’re personally experiencing menopause, supporting someone who is, or a leader looking to create a healthier, more supportive workplace culture, this episode offers real-world advice, empowering stories, and actionable takeaways.
