🔥 Menopause is hot! 🔥 This is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of workplace health. It affects millions of women during their peak career years, influencing their productivity, well-being, and job satisfaction.  Excited that we're having this conversation more - there is lots of work to be done in this space! 🚀 #womenshealth #menopause

No matter the day, week, or year, I always find myself advocating the most for improved women’s health outcomes. Why??? Women are the backbones of healthcare! They not only make up the majority of the healthcare workforce, but they are the Chief Medical Officers of their own family’s healthcare. Yet, they often delay their own care because they put the needs of others above their own. In a recent #RadioAdvisory podcast with my Advisory Board colleagues, Rachel Woods and Gabriela Marmolejos, MSPH, we dive into women’s healthcare during MIDLIFE and why this is such a crucial time to engage women more than we currently do. Please listen and let us know your thoughts and what you’re doing to advocate for midlife women’s health.

A Call to Action: The need to transform Women's Health Life presents us with moments that stir our hearts and minds—moments when we fall in love with a problem, feeling both passion and responsibility to drive change. For me, that moment came with women's health. The realities are eye-opening: - Women experience 25% lower quality of life compared to men - Heart disease: #1 killer of women in US, yet only 33% of clinical trial participants are female - Even though 100% of women living into late life experience menopause, it is woefully under-researched and poorly understood;  - 1 in 5 women consider leaving their careers during menopause due to lack of support and care And the list continues… As a health leader, a woman, and a mother of three girls, I'm amazed by how much remains unknown and unaddressed. The gaps in women's healthcare aren't just statistics—they represent untapped potential that could be immeasurably improved. I've fallen in love with this problem, and I'm committed to be part of the solution. I’m on a mission to stregnthen women's healthcare. To unlock the potential of every woman, at every stage of life. To create a world where women thrive in their lives. This is a human issue. Healthier women mean stronger families, more vibrant communities, and a brighter future for all. I would welcome hearing your perspective or your involvement on this topic on what are the biggest gaps that remain unsolved.
