When Perimenopause Hijacks Your Leadership Code

Episode 8

Monday, May 11, 2026 • Duration 25:16

You almost flipped off the driver who took your parking spot this morning. By 10 a.m., the colleague clicking her pen in the boardroom is suddenly the worst person in the building. You've led teams for twenty years. None of this is who you are. So what changed?

In this episode, Karen walks through the Personal Code of Honour she co-built years ago — the four-anchor leadership toolbox of Integrity, Excellence, Communication, and Passionate Intensity — and what happens to it when the hormone imbalance symptoms of perimenopause quietly arrive at the peak of a high-performing woman's career. She names the biology nobody told you about (estrogen decline symptoms running erratic, progesterone imbalance symptoms showing up first as nervous-system noise), pushes back on the 131-symptom overwhelm with her signature "I'm not here to teach you symptoms — I'm here to give you tools" pivot, and hands you the first tool: cycle mapping. The four-week map. The colour-coded calendar. The line that's becoming her trademark — schedule your life around your cycle.

This is the leadership conversation menopause in the workplace should have been from the start. Honest, practical, zero filter, and built for the executive woman who's done with trouble concentrating at work and ready for a tool she can use on a Tuesday.

Brain Fog at Work: It's Probably Perimenopause

Episode 7

Tuesday, April 28, 2026 • Duration 26:57

What it actually feels like when perimenopause comes for the part of you that built your career — and why nobody at work is allowed to see it happen.

You walk into a meeting you used to run in your sleep. You say something with your usual confidence. And the woman across the table — ten years younger — corrects you. She's right. You were wrong. And the recall you've trusted for twenty years just didn't show up.

This episode is about that moment. The one almost nobody at work talks about. The slow erosion of the professional self high-performing women built across two decades — happening quietly, around 47, with no warning, no language, and nowhere safe to name it. Karen walks through the lost-recall moment, the self-trust spiral, the timing cruelty of perimenopause arriving right at the peak of your career, and the silence that costs Canadian women $3.5 billion a year. Honest, practical, and zero filter.

If this landed for you, the easiest next step is the email list — that's where I send the patterns, the scripts, and the resources I would've killed for at 47. Sign up at notcrazyjustmenopause.com o

Puppy Purpose: Why Women in Menopause Are Suddenly Buying Dogs

Episode 6

Saturday, February 14, 2026 • Duration 13:21

Have you noticed it?

Midlife hits. Menopause begins. Kids grow up. Careers shift.

And suddenly… there’s a puppy in the house.

Is it random?

Or is it a placeholder?

In this episode, Karen Roy explores what’s really happening beneath the surface. Not hormones. Not loneliness. Not a trend.

Purpose.

Menopause isn’t just a biological transition. It’s an identity recalibration.

For decades, many women have lived inside roles — mother, partner, caregiver, high achiever, peacekeeper. Roles that were necessary. Roles that were expected. Roles that were built around everyone else.

Then something shifts.

Your tolerance changes.

Your energy changes.

Your clarity sharpens.

And the question gets louder:

What am I actually here for now?

The puppy becomes symbolic.

Not because women “need something to nurture.”

But because they’re redefining themselves.

Should I Tell My Boss or HR About Menopause? How to Talk About Menopause at Work

Episode 5

Sunday, January 4, 2026 • Duration 27:06

Should I Tell My Boss or HR About Menopause? How to Talk About Menopause at Work

Many women going through perimenopause or menopause quietly ask the same question: Should I tell my boss or HR that menopause is affecting my work — or should I stay silent and push through?

In this episode, menopause educator and leadership coach Karen Roy explores one of the most searched and emotionally complex topics around menopause at work. This honest, conversational discussion helps high-performing women understand when disclosure can be helpful, when it may not be necessary, and how to talk about menopause professionally without oversharing or risking career credibility.

This episode is especially relevant for women in leadership roles, professional environments, or corporate settings who are experiencing symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, or confidence changes at work.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Why “should I tell my boss about menopause?” is such a common and difficult question
How menopause symptoms can impact work performance and confidence
The difference between talking to your manager vs HR about menopause
When disclosing menopause at work may be supportive — and when it may not
How to ask for workplace support or accommodations without sharing medical details
What to say (and what not to say) when discussing menopause professionally
Why hormonal awareness is an essential leadership skill for midlife women

Key Takeaway:

You don’t have to disclose menopause at work to be supported. What matters is knowing what you need to do your job well — and advocating for yourself with clarity, confidence, and intention.

Why This Conversation Matters:

Menopause is a biological transition, not a personal weakness — yet many workplaces still lack understanding and support. Without the right language or strategy, women often suffer in silence, leading to burnout, disengagement, or self-doubt. This episode helps normalize menopause in the workplace while empowering women to protect both their well-being and their careers.
