Menopause Education Center

What Menopause Education Center does

Menopause Education Center is a San Francisco-based, for-profit education company founded in 2020 by Rachel Anne that delivers evidence-based menopause and perimenopause content to three distinct audiences: women aged 40-60 navigating hormonal transition, husbands and partners seeking to support them, and corporate employers plus legal professionals addressing menopause in the workplace. The company distributes its core offering through self-paced online masterclasses (Menopause & You Complete Guide for women and The Partner Playbook for partners) hosted on the mn.co platform, with free mini-courses and a downloadable Perimenopause Survival Guide serving as top-of-funnel lead magnets. Adjacent digital tools include a Menopause Cost Calculator built on Harvard Medical School research quantifying $2,116 per female employee per year in lost productivity and increased healthcare utilization, the All About the Pauses Pledge toolkit of seven PDF guides, and a Menopause Legislation Report tracking enacted and pending state laws through June 2026.

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market: product-led growth on the consumer side with one-time/perpetual course licensing, and an enterprise field sales motion for corporate menopause programs (best practices training, manager education, custom policy development, and menopause-friendly certification) sold through complimentary policy assessments and discovery calls with the founder. Additional revenue streams include keynote speaking, expert panel sessions, live workshops, and Legal Programs serving employment lawyers and in-house counsel on ADA, FMLA, and Title VII compliance. Pricing for corporate and legal engagements is quote-based with multi-year contract structures; individual course pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company holds membership in The Menopause Society (formerly NAMS), aligns corporate training with SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP competencies, and cites content contributions from physicians and researchers at Mayo Clinic, UCSF, Johns Hopkins, Duke, Baylor, and Cornell. Operations remain lean at 1-10 employees with no external funding disclosed, and named enterprise customers include Williams-Sonoma, American Family Insurance, Vetsource, Recursion, Dewberry, Hilti, and CCCIS.
