Redefining Ageing Sydney 2024
Nurturing Connections in Midlife and Beyond

 

Silver Sirens is thrilled to announce that our milestone 10th Redefining Ageing event will take place in Sydney. This event marks seven remarkable years of empowering women in midlife and beyond. This iconic gathering has become a beacon for women who reject society's negative narrative surrounding ageing and embrace their journey on their terms.

 

Join us at the Sydney Redefining Ageing event as we delve into the transformative power of nurturing communities and relationships in midlife and beyond. Our distinguished speakers will share their personal experiences of overcoming loneliness and offer invaluable strategies for cultivating meaningful connections and fostering a supportive community.

 

During this uplifting event, you'll discover a welcoming environment filled with warmth, camaraderie, and sisterhood, where lifelong friendships are formed and like-minded women connect.

 

Take advantage of this opportunity to participate in an empowering and inspiring event that champions the beauty of ageing and the strength of women.

 

Reserve your spot and embrace the journey of growing older alongside a vibrant community of women.

The Redefining Ageing event series has been a breath of fresh air in my personal growth and self-discovery journey. These thoughtfully curated gatherings have provided a much-needed platform for women like myself to engage in meaningful conversations, share our unique experiences, and challenge traditional notions of ageing”.

The Power of Female Friendships

​Female friendships are the heart’s sanctuary, offering strength, empathy, and laughter—a vital source of connection that nourishes the soul and empowers women to face life’s challenges with grace and resilience.

Building Communities in Midlife and Beyond

In midlife and beyond, community becomes a cherished circle of trust and support, where women find renewed purpose, lasting connections, and the courage to embrace the next chapter of life together.

The Crones in Cabaret perform proudly under the auspices of the Older Women's Network Theatre Group, founded in 1987 in a parliament house protest to draw attention to the issues facing older women. The group includes women over 60 from all backgrounds who are committed to embracing each day as if it's their last.

Meet the Founder

MEET THE FOUNDER OF SILVER SIRENS

Faith Agugu

Faith Agugu is an Australian leader in the global positive ageing movement, which seeks to champion women aged 50 plus, and re-define how they approach ageing. She has always had the instinct that she would get better with age and is hoping to inspire other women into the same mindset.

In 2018 Faith launched Silver Sirens, Redefining Ageing, creating an age-positive community to challenge the negative narrative that surrounds women and ageing, and their inaugural Redefining Ageing event was held the same year.

 

Iconic Australian women took the stage to speak about this potent and transformational period of our lives. Health, beauty, business, leadership and spirituality were all on the agenda.


As a trained psychotherapist with a Bachelor of Social Science, Faith has helped hundreds of women at her Sydney-based practice, The Healing Process, to experience their ‘third age’ as a renaissance of self and true rebirth.
 

Faith believes that women often internalise cultural messages that warp our ideas of age into something to ignore or even fear, blinding us to our own accomplishments, sexiness and worth.
 

Faith’s vision to be of service to a wider audience has garnered an audience that doubles year on year, and national media attention, such as feature articles on Silver Sirens in Mindfood Magazine, New Idea and The Guardian, She has also made several television appearances on SBS's Insight and Channel 9's Today Extra.
