A Woman’s Perspective

Running a business is no small task. It’s a constant juggling act of strategy, finances, and leadership. But for women navigating perimenopause or menopause, the challenges can feel amplified in ways that are hard to articulate, let alone address.

This stage of life brings changes that are deeply personal yet undeniably impactful on our professional lives. From fluctuating energy levels to brain fog and shifts in emotional resilience, it can feel like your own body is throwing curveballs just as you’re trying to keep everything else steady.

The Impact on Business Decisions

For many women, menopause can bring a wave of self-doubt or hesitation, even in areas where they’ve always been confident. Decision-making, once a strength, can feel like an uphill battle. The unpredictability of symptoms can create misunderstandings in business relationships, leading to feelings of isolation or frustration.

And yet, this is a time when many women are at the peak of their professional and entrepreneurial journeys. The tension between these two realities can be exhausting.

The Value of Understanding Support

This is where having the right support can make all the difference, not just personally, but professionally.

An accountancy firm might not be the first place you’d think to turn to during this time, but having a team who truly understands your challenges, as both a business owner and a woman, is invaluable.

At Troy Accounting, we’ve seen firsthand how perimenopause and menopause can intersect with business ownership. That’s why we don’t just offer financial support, we’re here to help with the bigger picture:

  • Taking the burden of financial admin off your shoulders so you can focus on what matters most.
  • Offering strategic guidance to help you navigate moments of uncertainty with clarity.
  • Providing a safe, empathetic space where you can discuss your goals, challenges, and concerns without fear of judgment.
