Sound familiar?

You're still delivering. But it's costing you more than it should.

From the outside, you may look as capable as ever. You are still leading meetings, making decisions, solving problems, and getting the work done. Behind the scenes, maintaining that level of performance may require far more effort than it used to.

  • Your focus and energy feel less predictable than they used to
  • Words disappear at exactly the wrong moment
  • You prepare more because you trust your memory less
  • A difficult meeting can shake your confidence for the rest of the day
  • You are quietly wondering whether you can keep performing at this level

None of this erases your judgment, experience, or ability. But pushing harder against a brain and body asking you to work differently is not a sustainable strategy.

How I help

Menopause career coaching for clarity, confidence, and sustainable performance.

I work privately with professional women who want practical support without being treated like a wellness project. Together, we identify what has changed, build strategies for the situations carrying the greatest professional stakes, and protect the parts of your career and identity that matter most.

The work may include managing cognitive load, preparing for high-stakes meetings, recovering confidently when you lose a word or thought, communicating what you need at work, and making career decisions from clarity rather than fear or exhaustion.

The Through-Line

Because midlife doesn't pause your career.

My signature three-month 1:1 coaching program includes 12 weekly sessions, fully tailored to your role, goals, working style, and what this season is asking of you.

I've been in the middle of it too.

Charmaine Brown, PhD, founder of Balancia and menopause career coach

At 39, while working in a highly visible Head of Product role, I started forgetting words mid-sentence and losing track of things constantly. My brain had always been one of my greatest professional assets. Then I had my first hot flash, and everything fell into place. I wasn't losing my mind. I was in perimenopause. Learning how to keep performing while my brain and body renegotiated the terms is why Balancia exists.
