To mark International Women's Day (March 8th) Claire and Helen sat down for a chat with Amy Martin to talk about a subject that rarely gets a mention in the workplace - menstrual cycles.
As Amy puts it: “We want to move away from the narrative that women are ‘funny’ around their period, but for many of us it’s true. Yet we’re ignoring it in the workplace.”
Amy is on a mission to get us all (men included) talking about how someone's menstrual cycle can affect them at different times, and how businesses are failing to get the best from their teams by ignoring the natural fluctuations people experience in mood and energy.
She talks powerfully about her own struggles with burnout and the power she has gained from getting to know her own menstrual cycle.
Amy is a qualified veterinary nurse, as well as a coach and mentor. You can find her at Ark Referrals, The Point of Care Foundation, and Magnolia Coaching.
Amy's book recommendations mentioned in the episode:
