Women are repeatedly left in the dark when it comes to understanding their health, this shows up in the workplace as sick leave, more resignations, and capable women quietly stepping back.
When women have adequate knowledge about their health and bodies, they make better decisions, they understand how to manage conditions and they live healthier lives. When they don’t, women have more hospital visits, less preventive care and poorer health outcomes.
This knowledge gap shows up dramatically when it comes to endometriosis, pregnancy and postpartum, the reproductive years, perimenopause and menopause. However, in most workplaces, these conversations are still hidden in silence.
That’s the gap we’re closing by taking essential health education (on stress, hormones, menopause, endometriosis, menstrual cycles and advice on the best healthcare pathways) into workplaces.
