Meet Karissa
I spent more than fifteen years leading finance, analytics, and strategy teams inside one of America's largest mortgage companies. Like many women, I experienced perimenopause while balancing a demanding career and initially believed the symptoms were simply stress, burnout, or the pressure of doing it all.
That experience led me to become a certified health coach with specialized training in perimenopause education and to found Perimenopause Power. Today, I help organizations better understand the impact of menopause on retention, productivity, leadership development, and employee well-being through evidence-based education and workforce-focused solutions.
