In this episode I am speaking with Emma Menzies, a Fertility at Work coach and consultant, about the intersection of fertility challenges and workplace dynamics.

Emma shares her personal journey through fertility struggles while working as an employment lawyer, highlighting the stigma surrounding discussions of fertility in the workplace.

We discuss:

• How Emma's personal experience with fertility struggles inspired her coaching work.

• Why there is a significant stigma around discussing fertility in the workplace.

• How legal protections for infertility are currently minimal.

• How open communication with employers can provide necessary support.

• Whether workplaces are beginning to change policies regarding fertility and employee well-being.

• How finding the right support in the workplace is crucial for those undergoing fertility treatment.

• And how coaching can help individuals navigate their unique situations and decisions.
