Catherine Harland ran her own PR agency for more than a decade, counting a long list of businesses and individuals as clients. However, she has recently changed careers, training as a menopause coach and workplace training provider, after her own personal experiences.
Here, she explains how many good things are born from adversity:
"After 30 years of working in the corporate world, I decided to switch careers and train as a menopause coach and training provider at age 52. Daunting? Yes. Then why, you may ask? I woke one day in June 2008, I was 38 and felt emotionally paralysed, scared and unable to drive my son to school, a trip I had done daily for 15 years. I did it regardless but to this day, I’ve no idea how.
