Jeanette Kehoe-Perkinson on understanding Menopause

Dec 8, 2020

Jeanette founded Power Pause to help raise awareness about Menopause.   For episode 233 we find out about her life growing up in Liverpool, transformative OE experiences, her career in Human Resources and what it was like for her going through Menopause - and why she then founded Power Pause.

Jeanette comments:

"My aim is to provide lots of resources, on one site, so that people don't have to work so hard to find relevant information.

 

My over-arching desire is to normalise the menopause conversation and let people know it is a life stage which passes - so let's support people who are going through it, or living with people going through it - so that we retain women in workplaces, improve family relationships, improve communities, eventually resulting in economic equity and improvement for women in their 50s, 60's, 70's and even 80's (like Margaret Austin - episode 208 - and RBG).
