I am delighted to provide a glowing testimonial for Fiona, who recently conducted a Menopause Maze session for my key female staff. Fiona's expertise in menopause was evident from the outset, as she seamlessly blended her extensive knowledge with an approachable and friendly demeanour.
Fiona's ability to create a comfortable and open environment allowed our staff members to engage wholeheartedly in the session. Her presentation was not only informative but also delivered with a genuine passion for helping others navigate the complexities of menopause in business and careers. The ladies who attended the session expressed their gratitude for Fiona's approach, noting how her friendly demeanour made the discussion both accessible and relatable.
The session proved to be a valuable experience for our staff members, as we as a business, gained valuable insights and a deeper understanding of menopause. Fiona's ability to connect with the audience and deliver information in a relatable manner ensured that the session was not only educational but also enjoyable.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Fiona to any organization seeking an expert in menopause education, talent retention and business strategy. Her professionalism, knowledge, and friendly approach make her an exceptional resource in providing valuable insights and support for women and workplaces going through this significant life stage. Thank you, Fiona, for making a positive impact on our team!

A really good discussion in the Parliamentary Roundtable on The Women's Health Strategy chaired by Fiona McKay.
Director of Communications & Policy UK&ENI at Organon
It’s been a privilege working with you Fiona McKay. Thank you for your collaboration in bringing the Parliamentary Roundtable on The Women's Health Strategy to life and for ensuring as conference Chair that our discussions were meaningful and action focused!
Managing Director, Phaidon International
Fiona has been integral in my success and she has played a key role in helping me to manage rapid change and achieve significant growth in my own career and our US business.
She is my Exec Coach, and she has worked across multi-functions and disciplines in our US business with ease, both internally with our talent and externally with our clients, as well as being a keynote speaker at a number of high ticket events for our clients.
Fiona works at rapid pace and understands the huge changes that leaders face in hyper-growth portfolio companies. She has helped me maximize unique opportunities and plays a key role to me as an advisor too. She has a straight-forward style and action driven approach that really resonates with me.
I recommend Fiona to any hyper-growth leader pre and post PE acquisition who are really serious about achieving their highest performance and leadership potential.

Truly you are inspiration Fiona. And menopause is such an important subject. Everyone I know going through this phrase of their life I put on to your amazing work at The Menopause Maze. Go you!
I engaged Fiona as my Executive Coach having moved to the UK from Australia.
Fiona’s authenticity, intellect, professionalism, direct and candid style impressed me immediately and her deep experience gave me complete confidence in her abilities.
Fiona has helped me work through a number of major career transitions, including moving from Australia to the UK, returning to work after parental leave, and winning my first MD role of a PLC.
I also experienced significant challenges with some colleagues’ behavioural issues during this time, and she supported my resilience by providing effective guidance and coaching. She helped me double down on my self-efficacy, enhance my self-awareness, confidence and assertiveness, and leverage these skills to be a more effective leader.
By having regular structured sessions with Fiona, I remained focused on my goals and confident in my ability to achieve them. I had a safe place to discuss and resolve the big issues and reflect on my progress. In my view, this approach gives me a huge advantage as it helps me reflect and take stock of issues, think through problems and possible solutions, and hence maintain calm and confidence through greater resilience. Through this approach, I continually focus on being the best version of myself.
I find Fiona’s style, methods and guidance invaluable and I would highly recommend her!

Thank you Fiona McKay. If you had not made me aware of the lack of HRT, I myself would be without my very necessary medication this weekend. Menopause and the issues we currently face whether it be through lack of required medication, or the physical and mental problems are so difficult but through the information and solutions you share and your speaking it helps massively !!
Fiona McKay is a versatile presenter and host. I had the pleasure of working with her at the Fund Forum in Monaco. She has the ability to take complex financial concepts and debates and simplify them for the mass market, without losing any of their nuance. She can make a hard day's on-stage interviewing look almost effortless.

“I found working with Fiona to be an extremely valuable experience. Her guidance, coaching methods, and the fact that she was able to provide me with impartial advice and helped me to overcome the challenges I was facing and deliver a tangible difference to the business I work in as a board member.”
HR Director, JLA
People across our business are always asking for Fiona, they talk about the impact of her sessions and her results continue to cascade through our business. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fiona to any individual or business particularly the C Suite and HRD's serious about change and transformation.
Brand Strategy Director, Informa Connect
‘Fiona is a dynamic and fascinating keynote speaker, and she is also very valuable as a host for interactive discussions. She has hosted a number at conferences I have organised, and they have always been a great success. The engagement levels she encourages, her personable approach and the knowledge of her topic always means that people ask many questions and ask to get in touch with her after the session is over! She is a very impressive business-person who inspires you to do more, be better and to think more innovatively.’
Fiona is very informative and inspiring with a great presence.
“Fiona was a great support for me and provided some really insightful one-to-one coaching during a period of change in the UK & Ireland business. She encouraged me to focus on the vision and the narrative to get buy-in from around the company. I also later used those valuable learnings to secure an exciting new US role within the Adidas Group.”
“I was fortunate enough to work with Fiona through a series of one to one coaching sessions, as I took the step from managing a team to leading a division of our company. The work with Fiona was always challenging both in our sessions and between meetings, but most importantly for me I walked away with a toolkit and techniques that were practical and has helped deliver a record breaking year for our brand. Fiona really challenged me but in a way that often lead me to finding my own answers or reprioritising so I could view my options with crystal clear clarity.”
Regional Business Leader
“Fiona's coaching challenged and stretched me both commercially and strategically, whilst underpinning her sessions with the absolute belief that I could craft and achieve strategic goals that I didn’t think were possible. I’ve achieved real measurable outcomes with hard evidence, both professionally and personally that has had an amazing impact on my life. This has been one of the best things I’ve ever done, and I thoroughly recommend Fiona to any business leader; she’s a real game changer”
Fiona, you were the first women I worked with that had a bigger impact than you'd believe during the early part of my career. Great to see how yours is flying 😊
