INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

SUNDAY MARCH 8 2026

This International Women’s Day, let’s honour women with evidence-based health education that empowers lasting wellbeing in work and life

Three reasons to empower people with hormone health education.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

Very few women understand the impact of hormones on their health. Empowering people with this knowledge allows them to take proactive action toward better health, resulting in the ability to thrive at work and at home.

RETENTION.

Up to 1 in 10 women will leave the workforce during perimenopause. Up to 73% of those women won’t realise they’re in perimenopause, and won’t be able to support themselves as a result. It’s not just perimenopause that impacts workplace retention, hormonal health issues often reduce the span and trajection of a woman’s career. Empowering women with knowledge and support increases retention and career opportunities.

SAFETY.

All workplaces have a positive duty to eradicate discrimination on the grounds of sex and to create psychosocially safe workplaces. Knowledge about the women-specific health concerns reduces the risk of unintentional discrimination and damage, and enables leaders to lead with knowledge and empathy.

  • “I can’t even begin to list all the things I have learnt. Loved the hormone chat and the side effects to look out for … not just the “hot flushes”. I would 100 percent recommend it, everyone needs to hear this stuff. Jess is so unbelievably knowledgeable on everything about peri. There wasn’t a question she couldn’t answer. You unfortunate medical history has really benefited womankind entering peri”

  • “Your session was one of the highlights of our 2 days. Every single person in the team loved it. It was exactly what I asked for and more. Your flexible approach, your warmth and the acceptance of us all created a lovely space for us to feel comfortable and get the most out of it”.

    Sarah Piper. Director, Invisible Partners.

  • Such an informative session, I learnt a HEAP! Jess has such a natural and comfortable presenting style and is genuine is her approach. She knows this stuff like the back of her hand and can quickly refer to studies etc which gives you comfort that the information is valid and backed by science. I enjoyed the light humour throughout the session too.
