Silent Exodus

Right now, legions of experienced women are quietly exiting the workforce due to unmanaged menopause symptoms, outdated workplace norms, and a lack of meaningful support.

Companies are losing one of their most valuable assets:

wise, capable leaders in their prime.

I work with organizations to change that.

About Me

Hi, I'm Heather Paterson.
