Kate Usher, a renowned menopause coach and workplace consultant, is hosting an insightful webinar alongside her husband, Neil Usher, titled “Navigating Menopause Together as a Couple.” This exclusive event aims to provide both women and men with a deeper understanding of how menopause impacts relationships, along with practical tools to maintain communication, intimacy, and mutual support during this stage of life.
With extensive experience in menopause coaching, Kate has dedicated her career to empowering individuals and organisations to create menopause-friendly environments. She founded Menopause in Business to drive change in workplace awareness, ensuring that menopause is recognised and properly supported. Her expertise has helped many women and their colleagues navigate the challenges menopause presents in both professional and personal settings.
Kate is also the author of A Couple’s Guide to Menopause Navigating the Change Together, a book she co-wrote with Neil Usher, her husband of over 30 years. The book provides real-life experiences, research-backed insights, and actionable guidance for couples striving to maintain emotional connection and strengthen their bond throughout menopause.
Why This Webinar Is Essential
Menopause is often considered a personal journey, but its impact extends to relationships, families, and workplaces. Many couples find themselves struggling with communication breakdowns, emotional shifts, and misunderstandings about the physical and psychological changes menopause brings. This webinar seeks to break that cycle by equipping both partners with the knowledge and skills to navigate menopause together.
“Menopause doesn’t have to create distance in a relationship,” said Kate Usher. With open communication, the right knowledge, and a supportive approach, couples can deepen their connection and navigate this stage together with greater understanding and closeness.
Neil Usher, a senior property professional and co-author of A Couple’s Guide to Menopause, offers valuable insight into the male perspective on menopause. He acknowledges that many men feel uncertain or excluded from the conversation, often unsure of how to support their partner.
Men often don’t realise how much menopause will affect their relationship until they’re in the middle of it, said Neil. We’re not given the tools or understanding to navigate it effectively. This webinar is about changing that and ensuring both partners feel supported.
What Couples Will Gain from the Webinar
The 45-minute session will provide:
✅ Expert strategies for maintaining open and effective communication.
✅ Insights into the emotional, physical, and psychological effects of menopause.
✅ Guidance for men on how to offer meaningful support.
✅ Techniques to preserve intimacy and adapt to changing relationship dynamics.
✅ Practical tools to strengthen emotional connection despite life’s challenges.
Kate and Neil will share their personal experiences, expert insights, and research-backed advice to help couples successfully manage this transition together.
“If you’re wondering whether your partner should attend, the answer is yes!” said Kate. “Menopause affects both of you, and facing it as a team makes all the difference.”
