A mum who was once homeless turned her life around to become CEO of a multi-million pound company.
Dawn Coker, from Woolton, moved home eight times in a period of five years after the breakdown of her marriage and was homeless for a short period. The 58-year-old was already facing turmoil in her personal life after a hysterectomy at the age of 35 sent her into early menopause.
Dawn, who had been suffering with endometriosis, found that there was little understanding in the workplace about debilitating menopause symptoms such as brain fog, hot flushes and excessive sweating. After having overcome significant adversity, Dawn is now running multi-million-pound company and advocates for implementing a dedicated menopause policy in businesses across the UK.
