Description

As male leaders, we understand that it can be challenging to discuss certain topics, especially when they are related to sensitive matters such as women's health. This episode is dedicated to addressing those questions you've always wanted to ask but were afraid to bring up.
These remarkable women bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the discussion, and they are eager to help demystify the subject for our listeners. Our goal is to foster an open and honest conversation about women's health, empowering male leaders to be better informed and more empathetic in their approach towards their female colleagues and employees.
In this episode, our esteemed panel will shed light on a range of women's health topics, such as menstruation, pregnancy, menopause, and more. We will also explore the intersection between women's health and workplace culture, discussing how organizations can implement policies and practices that support the well-being of their female employees. Through this conversation, we hope to bridge the gap in understanding and create a more inclusive and supportive work environment for everyone.
Whether you're a male leader seeking guidance or simply someone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of women's health, we're confident that you'll walk away from this discussion with valuable insights and a new perspective.
Don't miss this opportunity to broaden your horizons and become a better ally to the women in your workplace!
