The awful intersection of
neurodivergence & peri/menopause

When you learn that you are neurodivergent (whether through clinical or self-diagnosis), so much of our coping behaviour starts to make sense. But then along comes menopause and those strategies no longer work like they used to.

But we're exhausted and it is no longer a sustainable way to live.

This online meet up invites you to join other late diagnosed ND women for a conversation about navigating typical workplaces as a neurodivergent professional, particularly with menopause in the mix.

This month, I'll be joined by guest expert Mel Macoun, CEO of The Health Shift with Mel, to unpack the sticky intersection of being neurodivergent and going through peri-menopause. This one is going to be a goodie, you won't want to miss it.
