We’re Anne-Marie and Victoria—a mother-daughter team who became a grandmother and a mother in the same year.

While one of us was navigating menopause, the other was recovering from a traumatic birth.

We were both rebuilding—bodies, careers, and identities. But the workplaces we had given years of service to, didn't stand by us.

One faced maternity discrimination and a complete lack of support when requesting alternative working patterns due to new childcare needs when returning to work and the other endured unfair investigations, menopause discrimination and an injury at work that was covered up. These things made staying put impossible.

We realised, there was no safe space for women like us - women in demanding public service roles who had been wronged, pushed out, and left to pick up the pieces alone.

So we built FemPhase—for you, and for us - as a place to heal, be heard, and to create a new future on your own terms. Because you are so much more than the job that let you down.
