What if a drop in performance doesn't mean a lack of commitment, but rather a sign that someone needs more understanding and support?
In the new episode of Conversa Comigo, we continue exploring Mental Health, this time focusing on menopause and andropause and the impact hormonal changes can have on well-being and professional life.
Raquel invites us to reflect on a reality that is not always recognised in the workplace: symptoms such as difficulty concentrating, mood swings, fatigue and sleep disturbances can affect professional performance and are often mistaken for a lack of motivation or interest in work.
According to a study by the Portuguese Psychologists' Association (OPP), 68% of women admit to concealing menopause symptoms in the workplace. This figure highlights the importance of bringing visibility to these topics, challenging misconceptions and promoting more informed, understanding and inclusive working environments.
Talking about menopause and andropause also means talking about health, respect and well-being. Recognising that different stages of life can bring specific challenges is an important step towards building a workplace culture where people feel comfortable speaking up, seeking support and continuing to develop their professional journeys.
We invite you to watch this new episode and reflect with us on the importance of bringing these conversations into the workplace.
Because taking care of people also means understanding the different stages of their lives.
