About this Event

As part of Women’s Health Week join us at this powerful and inspiring event for women, men, and families who want to better understand menopause and the profound impact it has on our health, careers, relationships, and sense of self.

The event begins with the screening of The (M) Factor 2: Before the Pause (Perimenopause), an internationally acclaimed documentary that shines a light on the hidden reality of perimenopause through the lived experiences of women whose symptoms have been dismissed, misunderstood, or ignored. From classrooms to fire stations to doctors' consulting rooms, the film demonstrates why early awareness can transform women's health, careers, and confidence.

Then, the conversation continues in The Menopause Lounge.

In the foyer and bar area of the Mercury, grab a drink. Pull up a chair. Meet women who have been there, women who are living it right now, and women who are finding their way through it beside you.

This is not a networking event. This is a place to belong.

A place to share stories, reflect on what we have just seen, ask the questions you have been carrying, laugh together, cry together, learn together, and discover that you were never meant to navigate menopause alone.

Join our facilitated discussion and audience Q&A as extraordinary women, who are leading businesses, supporting communities, raising families, surviving breast cancer, and changing industries, share their stories and remind us that menopause is not the end. It is the beginning of something powerful.

And because menopause is not only about education, but also about finding joy in the journey, we'll be playing a lively game of Menopause Bingo. Expect laughter, plenty of "that's me!" moments, and the reminder that even the most unexpected symptoms become easier to carry when we realise..."It's not just me." The prize is a Positively Charged T-Shirt https://positivelycharged.com.au/ and copy of the latest release book DON'T BE A D*CK https://www.dbad.com.au/.

We will also be celebrating the soft launch of Positively Charged, a new apparel brand built on one simple idea. The messages we wear have the power to change how we feel. Every message is created to lift women up and remind them of their strength, courage, and potential.

This event is about choosing yourself anyway. Choosing your health, knowledge, connection, to ask the question, to back yourself, peruse your dreams and to take up space. Choosing to Do It Anyway, because no one is going to do it for you!

When women come together, stories become strength.

Knowledge becomes confidence.

Conversations become a movement.

Positive people attract positive people. So be the positive person.

Come for the film. Stay for The Menopause Lounge.

Leave part of The Movement, ready to purchase the T-Shirt to prove it!
