This week we invited Lisa Watson and Jeanette Forder to discuss with us the issues women face in the workplace and what can we do as a society to address that.
Lisa Watson qualified in 1989 as a Registered Nurse at Guys Hospital London.
Her career started in acute medicine and A&E, but since 2003 she has been working in NHS General Practice in Primary Care as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and an independent nurse prescriber.
Her own personal experiences and special interest in women’s health fuelled her passion to train as a Menopause Specialist to provide top quality care and advice to all women, at every stage of their menopause journey.
She holds the Advanced Certificate of Menopause Care (FSRH) and is a British Menopause Society Accredited Menopause Specialist.
Lisa works in the NHS in primary care and also privately as Watson Health and you can find her here:

Lisa is currently running great workshops, so make sure you book them in time.
Jeanette Forder is a 59-year-old post-menopausal woman and part of the Fifty-Something Fem-preneur movement.
Jeanette is the Founder and CEO of Phoenix Wellness Coaching, a company specialising in helping individuals and organisations to thrive together through menopause. She set up Phoenix Wellness Coaching in October 2020 after experiencing a long and at times difficult perimenopause herself, which ultimately drove her to change careers leaving her safe corporate HR role in the middle of the pandemic.
With 20 years’ experience as a Senior HR Business Partner and a Coach, working closely with, advising and challenging senior teams to build an engaged and inclusive culture where staff can thrive and perform to their highest level, Jeanette translates her own experience into useful advice for other senior managers to help them to build a sustainable, and resilient workforce that respects diversity and harnesses the power of difference at every employee’s life stage.
Jeanette is passionate about supporting all people and workplaces to develop a greater understanding of menopause, putting in place the support mechanisms to enable everyone to reach their full potential in all aspects of their lives.
Jeanette is a fully accredited wellness and life coach, a Senior Member of the Association of Counsellors, Coaches, Psychotherapists and Hypnotherapists (ACCPH), and a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD).
