My vision is to help you create a workplace that understands and designs for the fluctuating capacity of your employees, where people feel safe enough to show up without shrinking themselves to fit.
Encouraging empathy over embarrassment, I give you the tools to navigate and normalise conversations about menstrual health and neurodivergence at work.
The silence around menstruation and neurodivergence sends a message…
“Your needs don’t fit here.”
That silence is deafening. And people feel it.
Then they leave.
Those companies lose their people to workplaces that actually understand how humans work... and trust them.
The cost of replacing them in time, money and effort is high. Especially when they take all that inside knowledge to your competitors.
Be the one who shows your people what it means to truly work for a company that cares.
Menstruation is a non-optional biological process. It happens. And it needs to be acknowledged.
Add neurodivergence into the mix, and it's a magical mystery tour of sensory nightmares, wonky emotional regulation and executive functioning that has its own agenda.
Without support, people have no choice but to push through. Cramps, headaches, nausea, fatigue, sensory overload, all carefully hidden behind a professional smile.
And that costs everyone.
Employees feel frustrated, unsupported and exhausted by the expectation to endure discomfort just to fit in.
👉 PMS presenteeism costs UK businesses 8.4 lost days per employee every year.
That's nearly £673 per employee... annually.
Multiply that across your teams, and the number gets uncomfortable... quickly.
Because right now, individuals don't have the language to work with their own fluctuating capacity, and managers don't have the tools to have those conversations.
Every body that bleeds can learn to work with their hormonal fluctuations.
And every manager can learn how to hold those conversations without it feeling awkward.
That's how you build a workplace where people can navigate their days with comfort and dignity... without having to shrink themselves to fit.
Prior to working with Samantha, I frequently had days where I physically could not get out of bed, let alone make it to the office, which inevitably led to me having to call in sick. Even on days when I could manage to work, the pain made it almost impossible to concentrate! - Julie Farrin, County Broadband
Hi, I'm Samantha, Certified Cycle Coach and the person who will give your workplace the language it's been missing.
I work with organisations ready to understand how fluctuating capacity actually affects their people... and do something meaningful about it.
Valued people give value.
Most businesses do genuinely want to support their people. They just weren't taught how to talk about this.
That's where I come in.
My role is to create ease and understanding around menstruation, hormones, and their impact on different bodies and neurotypes, so your teams can navigate those conversations cringe-free.
And as an Autistic ADHDer who experiences menstruation, this isn't just theory. It's lived.
Proud to have worked with....
If you're done with performative wellbeing. You know something isn't working, but don't quite have the language for it yet. AND you want your people to experience the difference, not just read about it in a policy.
This is for you.
The Business Case
🩸 Improved Engagement
53% of women have missed work due to menstrual symptoms. That's not a motivation problem. That's what unmanaged capacity looks like. With the right support and understanding, employees can manage their energy, reduce absence and bring their full attention to their work.
🩸 Loyalty & Retention
67% of women say they’re more likely to apply for roles at companies with menstrual policies. Menstrual wellness needs to be a top down approach. People need to know they're in a sympathetic culture. When people feel understood and supported, they stay, engage and contribute. AND they tell others.
🩸 Cultural Shift
89% of employees report experiencing anxiety in the workplace due to their period. Anxiety affects mood, disrupts focus and makes everything harder. Organisations that normalise these conversations create the conditions where people can actually do their best work (without the silent drain of managing it alone).
Capacity → Motivation → Engagement → Loyalty → Retention
Leadership starts with being human first, leaning into curiosity and compassion.
Everything else builds from there.

If that wasn't a real quick yes, here's 5 reasons why Bloody Marvellous Workshops work...
No Snoozefest Here
Forget death by PowerPoint. Using relatable examples, a sprinkle of humour and live visual facilitation (yes, drawn in real time) your team can expect a workshop that's as entertaining as it is informative. And because it's visual, it naturally works across all learning styles.
Accessible Science
Hormones and neurodivergence are topics most people never got an education in, and that makes them harder to talk about than they need to be. So I break down the science in a way that makes sense of your body and your day to day life, so everyone leaves thinking why did nobody tell me this sooner.
Not Just 'Women's Business'
Fluctuating capacity affects every body and every brain. Using inclusive language that makes everyone feel part of the conversation, we explore how capacity shows up differently across bodies, hormones and neurotypes, so that we can better support each other.
Qualified. And Living It.
Sensitive topics need a trusted voice. As a Certified Cycle Coach and Autistic ADHDer who experiences menstruation and has delivered countless workshops on it, this isn't theory. It's lived experience and it creates the kind of safe space where honest conversations actually happen.
Something To Take Away
Nobody leaves empty handed. Every participant gets practical tools including a Cycle Tracking Tool and the CAPACITY framework, a simple, memorable way to build on this work and have better conversations long after we've parted ways.
Samantha brought energy and expertise making the workshop so enjoyable and informative. With Samantha’s help, we can learn more about people’s menstrual cycle experiences at work and guide them to help and support. Sara Bird, National Trust
Choose from one of my services and bring a little harmony to HR and energy to your employees...
Bloody Marvellous Workshops
Give your teams the missing education they never got in school. We cover the menstrual cycle, fluctuating capacity and how to relate it to your own body and day-to-day life. We touch on neurodivergence, menstrual-related conditions and perimenopause, and how all of it shows up at work.
With enough humour and live visual facilitation to make sure nobody's checking their phone.
Everyone leaves with practical tools and a lot less awkwardness around the subject. This is a 90-minute session designed as a high-impact starting point. For teams who want to go further, shorter follow-up sessions are available to explore specific topics in more depth.
Bloody Brilliant Leaders
Equip your leaders to better support their teams, not just with awareness, but with the practical tools to act on it. Through discussion, real workplace scenarios and the CAPACITY framework, we explore how fluctuating capacity shows up in teams and what good leadership looks like in response.
We cover barriers like banter, lived experiences and how to navigate the conversations that feel tricky, because avoiding them costs more than having them.
Available as a one-hour discussion group through to a half-day session, virtually or in person.
