New fitness series for members and actionable employer guide help address hormonal health, improve wellbeing, and build more inclusive workplaces

MINNEAPOLIS, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Women make up nearly half of today’s workforce, and with 89% of female employees saying that benefits shape their overall workplace satisfaction, the message is clear: women’s health is becoming a business priority. In recognition of these changing workplace dynamics and to mark Women’s Health Month, LifeSpeak Inc., the leading provider of holistic wellbeing solutions for employers, health plans, and other organizations, has introduced new resources that help employers and benefits professionals understand the critical connection between workplace benefits and culture, and the health and performance of women in their workforce.

“When we talk about women’s health, we’re also talking about leadership, equity, and retention. You can’t build a truly inclusive culture if people feel they have to hide what they’re going through. Our new resources help organizations take that next step – turning awareness into action, and giving organizations a practical way to meet women where they are – while building stronger, more inclusive workplaces,” said Amanda Martell, director of HR at LifeSpeak.

The new resources build on LifeSpeak Inc.’s extensive library of women’s health content, deepening support for perimenopause, menopause, mental health, and physical resilience. Here’s what’s new:

• New video-based fitness series designed to help women stay strong, energized, and mobile through perimenopause and post menopause. The “Women’s Health & Fitness Series” takes a comprehensive approach to fitness with workouts that help women manage symptoms of menopause, like fatigue, brain fog, and anxiety, while encouraging activities – such as stretching, upper and lower body exercises, treadmill hikes, and high-intensity interval training – that preserve muscles, foster mobility and strength, and reduce stress and anxiety.
• New workplace wellbeing guide, “Women At Work: Supporting Women’s Hormonal Health to Build Better Workplaces,“ outlines six practical steps employers and health plans can take to better support women across life stages – like perimenopause, menopause, family planning, and caregiving. Featuring expert insights and business-aligned data, the guide offers six actionable steps organizations can take to improve health outcomes, reduce attrition, and foster inclusive, high-performing cultures. It also features real-world examples, expert insights, and data that highlight both the risks of inaction and the long-term ROI of proactive support.

“We’ve seen consistent engagement with our existing women’s health content, and client feedback has made it clear that there’s a strong demand for even more targeted support in this area. These new resources – created in collaboration with our diverse network of leading subject-matter experts – are a direct response to those insights,” said Anna Mittag, chief product officer, LifeSpeak Inc. “By expanding our offerings in women’s hormonal health, fitness, and mental wellbeing – and layering in AI-powered personalization through LifeSpeak Holistic Wellness – we’re continuing to deliver on our commitment to meet members where they are, with content that’s relevant, personalized, and impactful.”
