Speaking out about perimenopause at work with Zoe Latimer

The Equality Conversation

Our focus for this Season is the 4 M’s which are Monthlies, Miscarriage, Maternity and Menopause, and how these can affect women at work. I’ll be talking to some incredible women and experts from around the world to share their real-life stories, advice and tips, to inspire you in your career.

Today I'm welcoming my good friend Zoe Latimer as my guest. Zoe is Head of Commercial Strategy at the Ministry of Defence and like me is currently going through perimenopause. Today we'll be breaking the taboo by speaking out about perimenopause at work, talking about the impact of perimenopause on working women, and tips and advice in managing symptoms whilst progressing your career.
The Confidence Conversation podcast with Joy Burnford explores the world of women, work and what it takes to feel more confident. A lack of confidence is not a crime. So, if you need some motivation, inspiration or a boost of confidence, grab a cuppa, go for a dog walk, or escape for a drive and join us for today’s conversation about confidence.
A big thank you to The Surrey Park Clinic for sponsoring this season. Many of us don't prioritise our health. Whether we are juggling work, home-life or family, we often put our health concerns to the bottom of the list. But going through periods, gynae concerns, fertility problems, pregnancy and menopause can be physically and emotionally draining and affect confidence. The Surrey Park Clinic can help and will put your health first. They are offering our listeners 10% off all initial consultations when you reference this podcast.
