The Modern Workplace Where Menopause Support Meets Business Success

Imagine a world where menopause isn't a whispered secret, but a celebrated stage of life. Where women thrive, not just survive, and employers support them every step of the way.

In this episode of FemTech at Work, we're joined by Christina Ang, founder of HeyVenus Integrated Health Science. Christina shares her journey from corporate leader to FemTech founder, driven by a passion to support women in the workplace. We dive into the stigma surrounding menopause, the impact on women's careers, and the groundbreaking research Christina's team has conducted across Asia. Get ready to reshape your perspective on menopause and its potential to empower women.

What's driving the growing buzz around menopause care in Asia and globally, and how can we be part of this movement
