The Festival of The Midlife Woman
A Movement. A Cultural Shift.

May 17 Miami

Midlife has been misbranded.

For decades, women have been handed a narrative of decline.

Hormones.
Mood swings.
Weight gain.
Silence.

We reject that story.

Midlife is not a breakdown.
It is a biological, emotional, and cultural transition.

And when women are informed and supported, it becomes the most powerful chapter of their lives.

This is where the narrative changes.

––––––––––––––

If You Are Over 40 And Quietly Thinking…

Why am I so tired?
Why does my body feel unfamiliar?
Why am I suddenly emotional?
Why does everything feel heavier?

You may not have a label for it yet.

You may just know something is shifting.

For many women, this is perimenopause.
And almost no one prepares us for it.

But this movement is not just about hormones.

It is about identity.
Power.
Wealth.
Pleasure.
Health.
Reinvention.
Connection.

Midlife touches everything.

So we address everything.

––––––––––––––

What Makes This Different

This is not a wellness fair.
This is not a surface-level empowerment event.

This is a curated midlife framework.

Over two immersive days, you will experience:

• Clinical and functional health insights on hormones, peptides, strength, gut health, and pelvic vitality
• Financial power sessions on wealth, credit, capital access, and independence
• Conversations about sexuality, identity, love, and reinvention
• Structured connection with women in the same season of life
• A screening of The M Factor to anchor the biological truth of midlife

We are not whispering about this season.

We are educating ourselves.
Supporting each other.
And reclaiming it.

––––––––––––––

Who This Is For

This movement is for the woman who:

• Has built a life that looks successful but feels quietly disconnected
• Is holding everything together while feeling internally stretched
• Craves real conversation in a city that feels performative
• Is done being dismissed by doctors or told “it’s just stress”
• Is ready to stop surviving and start leading this next chapter

You do not have to know whether you are in perimenopause.

You just have to know something is shifting.

You belong here.

––––––––––––––

What You Leave With

A new community of Women in the same stage as you who are choosing to thrive

You leave with clarity.
You leave with language.
You leave with strategy.
You leave with sisterhood.
You leave with ownership of your body and your next chapter.

And you enter LUMEN Global — a private community continuing this cultural shift beyond the room.

Because movements do not end after a weekend.

Info: The Second Curve: Rediscovering Your Life and Purpose in Midlife

Session Description:

Many women spend the first half of life building careers, raising families, and meeting expectations—often achieving success by every external measure. Yet somewhere along the way, many begin to feel a quiet but persistent pull toward something more. A new direction. A deeper purpose. A more authentic way of living. In this inspiring and reflective session, Toni Napolitano explores the idea of the “Second Curve”, the powerful transition that happens when the life we once built no longer fully reflects our current priorities. Drawing from her own journey through burnout and career transition, Toni will guide participants through a new way of seeing midlife: not as a crisis, but as a threshold. A moment where our wisdom, experience, and intuition begin to guide us toward a more meaningful next chapter. Through storytelling, reflection, and practical insights, participants will begin to explor

Info: Just 50 years ago, women could not obtain a credit card or mortgage without a male co-signer. Today, women are leading households, building businesses, inheriting wealth, and living longer than ever before. But with longevity comes responsibility.

Midlife often brings layered transitions: • Career pivots • Caregiving for parents and children • Divorce or widowhood • Entrepreneurship • Inheritance • Health changes, including menopause This session explores how women can align their financial lives with this new chapter through: • Asset protection fundamentals • Retirement income awareness • Tax diversification principles • Estate and legacy preparation • Creating income strategies that support independence

This is an educational and empowering conversation — not a sales presentation. Because Healthy Wealth means having the structure to support the life you’re becoming.

Info: The Peptide Revolution: Modern Strategies for Skin and Youth Preservation in Midlife

Discover how these powerful cellular messengers are changing the future of aging and skin health.

SESSION DESCRIPTION -

In this engaging session, Dr. Akinrele introduces peptides—powerful signaling molecules that help the body repair, regenerate, and function more optimally. Attendees will learn what peptides are, how they support skin health, collagen production, energy, and overall vitality, and how they can be incorporated into a modern wellness routine for women navigating midlife and menopause.

Info: Healing Session: Redefining Earning, Value, and Thriving in Midlife

SESSION DESCRIPTION:

What you've earned, what you're worth, and what thriving looks like for you--these aren't fixed. They're relationships. And like any relationship, they can be renewed. In this live healing session, we'll move through grounding, inquiry, body-mind connection, and an energetic healing experience designed to help you release what previously quietly shaped your relationship with earning, value, and thriving--and anchor something truer in its place for this phase of life.

You'll leave with a practice you can return to. Come as you are. Something will shift.

Info: Menopause is not one moment. It is a profound multi-layered journey of physical, emotional, mental, and identity transformation. In this session, The 5 Passages of Menopause & How to Navigate Them With More Ease, Zapheria Bell shares her powerful framework for understanding menopause as a series of distinct passages rather than a problem to simply “get through.”

Through The 5 Passages of Menopause—The Cracking, The Burning, The Pause, The Remembering, and The Rising—women are given a new way to make sense of what is happening in their bodies, minds, emotions, and lives. This session offers an empowering map for navigating the changes of midlife with more compassion, clarity, and self-trust.

Blending science, nervous system awareness, emotional insight, and a deeper understanding of identity transformation, Zapheria helps women see that menopause is not just a hormonal shift, but an invitation into a new chapter of wisdom, truth, and power.

Attendees will leave with a more grounded u

Info: Many of us reach midlife having built meaningful lives—careers, families, communities, and identities that once felt aligned with who we were meant to be. Yet at a deeper level, a quiet question often emerges: Is the life I’m living truly an expression of who I am now?

In this masterclass, Melissa Kiguwa introduces participants to the foundational inquiry from her Future Intelligence framework: “Who have I become?” Rather than focusing on external reinvention, this session explores how identity is shaped by unconscious patterns, inherited narratives, and the adaptations we’ve made to survive, succeed, and belong.

Through guided reflection and insight drawn from psychology, neuroscience, and spiritual inquiry, participants will learn how to recognize the difference between the conditioned self and the deeper intelligence within them.

The session invites women to examine the stories that have shaped their lives, reconnect with their inner authority, and consciously choose the nex

Info: We spend decades building a life that looks secure—titles, income, structure—only to realize it may not feel aligned. In this session, Laura Beristain challenges the traditional narrative of success and shares how she chose to walk away from “having it all” to create something far more meaningful.

But the shift didn’t happen overnight. It began with movement. Through sports—and especially cycling—Laura found a new kind of grounding: one rooted in presence, community, and inner strength rather than external validation. What started as time on the bike became a gateway to reconnecting with herself, supporting other women and ultimately expanding into a more holistic path through retreats, breathwork, and deeper soul work.

Info: Midlife brings changes—but leaking, pressure, and discomfort don’t have to be part of the deal. In this empowering, easy-to-understand session, you’ll learn what the pelvic floor actually is, why symptoms can show up during this stage of life, and what your body is asking for now.


We’ll break down what’s normal (and what’s not), clear up common myths, and focus on what truly helps—from simple daily habits to building real strength that supports your core and pelvic floor together. You’ll walk away with practical tools you can start using right away to feel more supported, confident, and in control of your body—so you can keep doing the things you love without holding back.

Info: Women entrepreneurs receive a fraction of traditional funding, yet many are sitting on one of the most powerful financial tools available to them: their credit profile.

In this powerful session, credit strategist and funding expert Velvet Connally will reveal how female founders can position themselves to access $100,000 or more in capital using a strategic combination of personal credit, business credit, and lender-ready documentation.

Drawing from her experience helping entrepreneurs secure over $20 million in funding, Velvet will break down the key mistakes that cause banks to say no—and the simple shifts that can make lenders say yes.

Attendees will learn: • Why most women are unknowingly leaving funding on the table • The three critical pieces every lender looks for before approving capital • How to structure a “lender-ready” credit profile • The strategy behind accessing funding without giving up equity or chasing investors

This session is designed to help women entre

Info: The Body-Love Connection: Why Your Gut Health May Be Getting in the Way of Love


SESSION DESCRIPTION -

Most women never connect their physical wellbeing to their love life, but the two are deeply intertwined. When your body is inflamed, depleted, or out of balance, your nervous system is in a stress state, and it is nearly impossible to open to love, trust another person, or feel truly worthy of being chosen from that place. In this session Bari explores the surprising connection between gut health, emotional regulation, and love readiness. You will leave understanding why so many smart, self-aware women stay stuck in patterns that do not serve them, and how nourishing your body is one of the most powerful and overlooked steps toward attracting a conscious, loving partnership.
