Join our October menopause webinar – "Giving it the V" – we need your help and stories!
October is Menopause Month, and Laughology is making sure we all talk about it.
"Giving it the V" will be a different take on Menopause month as we explore the myths and truths about menopause and provide a wider understanding of the female journey from the onset of periods to the end of them. Yes, you read that right – we’ll be diving into the world of the vagina (no pun intended) and all its wonder, quirks and amazingness with both humour and respect.
As part of the hour-long webinar, we want to share real stories from real women, so if you want to share your story, about your menopause, vagina or period journey please fill in this anonymous survey.
We can’t read out all the stories, but we’ll do our best to share them in other ways - all stories will be anonymous. By doing this we hope to normalise some of the things that happen ‘down there’ and help everyone feel comfortable to talk to someone, be it a friend or professional.
Stop right there if you think this isn’t for you. We’re inviting everyone to join this important conversation in our one-hour interactive webinar. We find that the more diverse our audience, the richer the conversation.
What to Expect
In this webinar, we’ll share funny and inspiring stories of women and their journeys with their vaginas – an exploration, if you will. Our aim is to break down the taboos and create a comfortable space for discussing female health openly.
We’ll be joined by an exceptional panel, including:
Helen works alongside the Department for Work and Pensions, helping employers develop policies that empower women experiencing menopause to stay and progress in their careers. Her insights will be invaluable for understanding the workplace implications of menopause.
