Perimenopause, Career Confidence and Cultural Silence: Madhu Kapoor on Breaking the Taboo

Madhu Kapoor is a speaker, consultant, and founder of M for Menopause, and is on a mission to change the way menopause is talked about, supported, and understood, particularly in ethnic minority communities. After a deeply challenging perimenopause that affected her mental health, career, and confidence, Madhu decided to speak up and help others do the same. In this honest and empowering episode, she shares her experience of brain fog, anxiety, migraines, and being dismissed by professionals. We talk about why workplace support matters, how cultural stigma holds women back, and why the right HRT journey isn’t always straightforward.
