Understanding Menopause and Neurodivergence for a Healthier, More Productive Team - Online Talk Sessions

Is your business truly inclusive? Many organisations are missing a crucial piece of the puzzle – supporting employees experiencing menopause or living with neurodivergence. These challenges often go unseen, yet they significantly impact staff wellbeing, retention, and performance.

This engaging and evidence-informed online talk is designed for forward-thinking businesses ready to support all employees through every stage of life and with every kind of brain. Delivered by a healthcare professional with experience supporting women through both menopause and neurodivergence, this session brings practical insights, real-world examples, and actionable strategies.

Whether you choose a focus on menopause, neurodivergence, or a combined session, your team will leave better equipped to foster empathy, understanding, and meaningful support at work.

Why it Matters

  • 1 in 10 women leave the workforce due to menopause symptoms.
  • Many neurodivergent individuals mask their traits to fit in, leading to burnout and mental health decline.
  • A workplace that understands and supports these challenges retains talent and boosts morale.

“Dr. Wall has a deep understanding of neurodiversity and the impact it has on a persons’ wellbeing, both in and out of the workplace. Her level of knowledge, particularly around hormones and how they can exacerbate the symptoms of neurodiversity is unmatched. The feedback from Dr. Wall’s recent talk at the NHS GM neurodiversity celebration week event was outstanding, with delegates praising her clinical knowledge and empathetic approach. I highly recommend Dr. Wall if you would like to raise awareness of neurodivergent conditions in the workplace.”
