Let’s make menopause matter. Let’s reframe midlife for good. Join us at Asia’s first and only festival that celebrates the second act; mind, body, and spirit.

Info: Midlife health is a team sport. In this panel, leaders from Singapore’s public health system and private providers share what’s working on the ground—clinics, insurers, employers, and community groups aligning to support midlife wellness. Expect frank, practical discussion on closing care gaps, building referral pathways, and translating guidelines into everyday practice so he/she can get timely, affordable, stigma-free support.

Info: Early menopause (ages 40–45) and premature ovarian insufficiency—POI (before 40)—aren’t rare edge cases; together they affect millions globally and can raise lifetime risks for heart disease and bone loss if left unaddressed. This keynote unpacks what early menopause looks like, why he/she may be missed, and how families, employers, and healthcare teams can respond—fast and well.

Info: Hot flushes and night sweats (vasomotor symptoms, VMS) are common—and not “just a phase.” Over half of adults aged 40–64 report VMS, with clear impacts on sleep and work productivity.
In this session, clinicians and community voices unpack what helps, what doesn’t, and how he/she can make informed choices and manage symptoms.

Info: “Brain fog,” word-finding slips, mood shifts, and poor sleep are common in midlife—and usually temporary. This session normalises what he/she is feeling, separates myth from evidence, and shows practical ways to protect focus, mood, and sleep at home, in clinic, and at work.

Info: Cancer treatments can push someone into menopause suddenly—through surgery, chemotherapy, or ovarian suppression—often with more intense symptoms than a natural transition. This session brings oncologists, menopause clinicians, and survivors together to share what helps, what to watch for, and how families and employers can support him or her—confidently and safely.

Info: Midlife brings real shifts—energy, sleep, roles, and health—that can test closeness. This session offers practical, science-informed ways for him or her to strengthen trust, communicate needs, and support body and mind—at home and at work. Hear clinicians, counsellors, and lived-experience voices from Singapore and beyond share tools that help couples and individuals navigate change with confidence.

Info: Midlife is a window to reset how he/she eats, moves, and sleeps—and to protect the heart, bones, and brain for decades ahead. This panel blends clinic-tested science with practical routines he/she can start tomorrow. Our physiotherapist, dietician, lifestyle medicine physician, and cardiologist will translate big evidence into small habits: what a cardioprotective plate looks like in Singapore (protein targets, smart carbs, healthy fats), how to fit two strength sessions and brisk-walk intervals into a packed week and more.
