Ep. 18: Aimee's story & being strong, healthy, and vibrant through the menopause transition.

Aimee Debow is the founder of Menovate, a corporate menopause education company, and a former telecom executive who spent 25 years climbing the corporate ladder. For 10 years, she suffered silently through perimenopause and menopause while seeing female colleagues experience the same struggle in complete secrecy. One pivotal moment during a major presentation to senior leadership forced her to make a choice, because she couldn't remember anything despite being the expert. She left corporate, took a year to rebuild her health through sleep, nutrition, exercise, and mental health, and came back transformed. Now she's on a mission to bring menopause education into workplaces across Canada, working with companies to build policies, implement e-learning courses, and create space for conversations that have been silenced for far too long.Key ComponentsHow a high-performing executive nearly lost her career because no one told her what was happening to her body.From 20 expected attendees to 500 showing up (plus people outside the room) and what this tells us about how desperate women are for this conversation.Why companies are legally and financially vulnerable if they don't act now: Two countries have already mandated menopause policies—Canada is next."Ten percent of women are quitting their job because of menopause.
