Karen Tan, Founder of Menoplus, Malaysia

In today’s episode, we meet Malaysian entrepreneur Karen Tan who is the founder of Menoplus based in Penang, Malaysia. Juggling her business, taking care of her family and caring for elderly parents while navigating menopause led her to a dark place. She also experienced a slew of medical problems - from itchiness to hot flushes, coupled with frustration and sleepless nights.  But from the depths of despair and a desire to figure things out came an "aha!" moment, a turning point that ignited a mission: to empower women on their own perimenopause and menopause journeys. Karen is optimistic and hopes that through her work, she can offer support, encouragement and help to other women who are facing menopause, the very same support that she was searching for when she was undergoing menopause. Through her workshops, she hopes to have more open conversations with women who are going through mid-life. So if you’re heading towards menopause, this is the episode for you.  Subscribe to our Youtube channel Get all the show notes at our website. This episode is proudly brought to you by Redbox Studio.
