Shahzadi has delivered impactful talks for leading companies like NatWest Group, PWC, and Channel 4, demonstrating her ability to connect with diverse audiences and foster understanding of women’s health challenges in the workplace.
After earning her medical degree from University College London, Shahzadi started her career as a GP, where she identified significant gaps in the healthcare provided to midlife women, particularly those from underrepresented groups. In response, she went on to be the founder of The Harper Clinic, dedicated to providing accessible, inclusive care for women facing the challenges of menopause. Shahzadi’s expertise extends beyond the clinical; she collaborates with businesses to help them build a more supportive workplace culture through targeted education and menopause support initiatives. Her membership in the British Menopause Society and active participation in international conferences highlight her dedication to advancing inclusive healthcare.
In recent years, Shahzadi has further solidified her position as a thought leader in this space by publishing her first book, The Perimenopause Solution, which has been widely praised and even endorsed by high-profile figures like Lisa Snowdon. She is committed to raising awareness of menopause and perimenopause, making these topics more visible, particularly in corporate settings. Her dedication has led to appearances on popular television shows such as ITV’s Loose Women and features in major publications like Vogue and Grazia. Online, Shahzadi’s influence continues to grow, with over 60,000 followers across social media platforms engaging with her health advice and her “Women’s Power Hour” series.
Shahzadi’s combination of professional medical expertise and lived experience, along with her commitment to inclusivity, makes her an invaluable asset to any organisation. She is a leader in shaping a more diverse conversation around women’s health, ensuring that all women feel heard and empowered.
