Menopause and the Successful Career Woman
You’ve worked hard all your life and success arrived at what seems like a long time ago. Time management, multi-tasking, goal achievement and long hard hours seem to come naturally to you. Nothing can stop you. You work hard; you are driven by adrenaline and power. Then suddenly in your mid to late 40s - early 50s, you are stopped in your tracks, you’re feeling symptoms of moodiness, depression, hot flashes creep up on you at the most inconvenient times, your sleep pattern is disturbed and your weight is out of control. Menopause has arrived.
How do you handle this unforeseen change of life that grips you physically, mentally and emotionally? Before, you were in control of everything that surrounded you and now suddenly there are symptoms affecting your daily life which are out of your control. How do you deal with these changes while still expected to “take charge” as the accomplished executive you are.
