Speaking
Menopause keynote speaker
Hope is a menopause keynote speaker for corporate, HR, government and conference audiences. Her talk, THE SHIFT, is the menopause keynote that does not stop at hot flushes. It follows the cost of menopause through retention, promotion and the leadership pipeline, and it ends with an action your organisation can take on Monday morning. It runs 45 to 70 minutes, live or virtual, and is delivered as a programme with a manager script, a policy starter and a follow-up call included.
01 Booking a menopause keynote speaker in the UK
Menopause is now a workplace obligation in the UK, not a wellbeing option. Large employers face action-plan requirements under the Employment Rights Act 2025, and the Menopause in the Workplace conference circuit is where policy is being set. THE SHIFT gives leadership teams the version that meets the duty and goes further: what the transition actually costs the organisation, what a supportive conversation sounds like, and one policy step to take this quarter. Hope is regularly in the UK; enquire for dates.
02 Booking a menopause keynote speaker in the US
Mayo Clinic puts the cost of menopause symptoms at USD 1.8 billion a year in lost work time, USD 26.6 billion with medical costs. One in eight employed women aged 45 to 60 has already had an adverse work outcome from symptoms nobody at work has a word for. Employee resource group and women’s health budgets are already funding the conversation; THE SHIFT is the keynote that turns it into a policy. Fees are quoted in USD.
03 Booking a menopause keynote speaker in Australia
International Women’s Day programmes and public sector women’s health initiatives are the two budgets that most often book this talk. Hope is based between Perth and London. Australian clients are quoted in AUD plus GST from the same fee ladder.
04 Which talk fits
THE SHIFT for HR, leadership and International Women’s Day rooms. The Last Taboo when the organisation is ready to go past menopause to sexual health as a workplace issue. The half-day masterclass, Sex, Menopause and the Workplace, when you need a policy position and a manager script by the end of the day.
05 Fees and formats
The Last Taboo Programme, which includes THE SHIFT delivered as a keynote with the manager script, policy starter, follow-up call and internal recording rights, starts at USD 15,000. Virtual delivery is 40 to 50 per cent of the live fee. A 50 per cent deposit confirms the date; the balance is due 14 days before the event. The Guarantee applies: if your post-event survey rates the keynote below 9 out of 10, you do not pay the balance.
06 Questions about booking a menopause keynote speaker
What makes this menopause talk different from a wellbeing session?
It is built for leaders, not just for the women in the room. It names the cost in retention and promotion, and it leaves the organisation with a script and a policy step.
Can it be delivered to a mixed or male-majority audience?
Yes. Ask about the men’s cut of The Last Taboo, which is often paired with THE SHIFT.
How far ahead should we book?
Hope delivers 24 keynotes a year. International Women’s Day dates fill between November and January.
Is a comedy version available?
Yes, for dinners and evening events.
What does the venue need to provide?
A handheld or lapel microphone, a confidence monitor and 16:9 projection. The full rider is in the Planner Kit.
