To the partners who made The Menopause Summit: Longevity Edition possible, thank you. 💜

On Saturday, a room full of women came together to learn, ask the questions they’d been carrying, and leave knowing they don’t have to navigate midlife alone. That room happened because you believed it mattered.

With gratitude to:
FNB
Sérélys Meno
Jockey
IDM Consulting
Lancet Laboratories
Edgars Beauty
Busamed
Senovar Labs
Songo Africa

Thank you for investing in women’s health, and in the conversations too many women have had to have in silence.

WORLD MENOPAUSE DAY 2026
My sis….🌸
Yesterday, 17 October, maybe we did it… but really God DID! The Menopause Summit 2026: The Longevity Edition.
One intimate room, zero whispering, zero shame. Just truth, real stories, science, softness, sisterhood — and a little bit of shaking our hips.
Today is World Menopause Day — 18 October — and the global theme this year is ‘Chronic Pain at Midlife’. Honestly? The timing was perfect.
Because yesterday we talked about everything.
Hot flushes and frozen shoulders. Brain fog and back pain. Bones, muscle, metabolism — and yes, money. Because health is wonderful, but health for the next 30 years needs a plan to fund it too.
We laughed. We moved. We cried a little. We learned a lot. We stretched, we breathed, we remembered how strong we are.
And I hear you, I see you .
Your shoulders. Your knees. Your backs that have carried so much.
You are not imagining it, Sisi. And you are definitely not alone.
You are not broken. Your body is responding to that estrogen decline and trying to make sense of it all… the transition, the reset…
You are becoming — and a wiser, softer, stronger, funnier, version of you is rising with better boundaries.
Thank you for trusting Soft Landing with your stories, your laughter, and your dance moves.😉
The next 30 years? They are yours. Let’s make them feel like home — strong bones, clear mind, comfy pants, and joy that stays.
With softness, science and a little shimmy,
— Dr Sibu
Founder, Softlanding

Yesterday, 17 October, we gathered for The Menopause Summit 2026: The Longevity Edition. One intimate room. No shame. No whispering. Just truth, lived experiences, science, softness and sisterhood.

Today is World Menopause Day, The world is talking about menopause, and this year the International Menopause Society has named the theme ‘Chronic Pain at Midlife’, focusing on chronic pain experienced at midlife. It could not have aligned more perfectly with what we lived yesterday.

My reflection after yesterday: For two years we have been on a journey together:

Year 1: Welcome home to yourself.
Year 2: Putting my house in order.
This year I asked: What sustains the home?

Health sustains it. But wealth sustains it too. As we shared yesterday, living longer costs more. Let’s plan for it. That is why we spoke about finances alongside hot flushes. Because your next 30 years need both a body plan and a financial plan.

To every woman who was in the room thank you for your courage. Thank you for asking the question you never asked out loud.

If you were not in the room, this is my message to you today:
1. You are not broken. You are not ending. You are becoming.
2. Chronic pain in midlife is common, but it is not something you must just push through. Speak about it. Move, nourish, and get screened.
3. Longevity is not just living longer. It is living stronger, clearer, and more at home in your body for longer.

My invitation from your intention card remains: What do you want your next 30 years to feel like? Let that answer guide your health decisions, your money decisions, and your joy decisions. Menopause is not a pause. It is a soft landing into strength.

With love and science,
Dr Sibu Lubelwana

A woman who understands the power of a story, the strength of community, and the importance of creating spaces where women can show up as they are.

Meet Joanne_31 , a Durban-based attorney, Co-Founder and Host of the HERstory Circle.

With a career grounded in integrity, strategic thinking and advocacy, Joanne brings her passion for empowering women beyond the courtroom. Through the HERstory Circle, she creates space for women of different ages and backgrounds to connect, share their stories, and exchange the lessons they have learnt and unlearnt as they navigate the different seasons of life.

Joanne joins keynote speaker Kabelo Tubane for The Fireside Conversation, an honest exchange about lived experience, navigating life’s unexpected chapters, and finding the strength to keep moving forward.

Because every woman carries a story worth sharing. And sometimes, hearing someone else’s story reminds us of the strength, possibility and wisdom within our own.

Different stories. Different seasons. One powerful reminder: we grow when we make space for one another.

What if understanding yourself better could change the way you show up in every area of your life?

Meet Colleen Wilson💫 HumanNavigator , Human Dynamics Consultant, Enneagram Practitioner and Executive Coach, who helps individuals, families and organisations navigate growth, change and the beautifully complex business of being human.

Through her work, Colleen combines the Enneagram, multidisciplinary coaching, nervous system literacy and the science of interpersonal neurobiology to help people better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships and unlock their potential.

Her work also extends to women navigating seasons of transition and growth, as well as parents finding their way through the complexities of modern parenting.

Colleen joins Dr Sibu Lubelwana for The Soft Launch — a conversation about the transitions that shape us, the inner work that helps us navigate them, and what it means to keep growing into the person we want to become.

Because longevity isn’t just about caring for the body. It’s also about understanding your mind, nurturing your relationships and giving yourself permission to evolve.

Know yourself. Grow yourself. Show up as your best self.

The conversations that shape how we live longer, feel better and take charge of our health start with the right questions and the right experts in the room.

Meet Dr. Natasha Di Rago , an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist bringing her medical expertise to The Menopause Summit 2026

As women navigate the different seasons of life, understanding our bodies becomes an essential part of protecting our long-term health and wellbeing. From hormonal changes to the bigger picture of longevity, informed conversations help women make empowered decisions about their health at every stage.

Dr Natasha joins our panel on longevity, bringing a medical perspective to the discussion around women’s health, the changes we experience as we age, and what it means to set ourselves up to thrive for the years ahead.

Because longevity isn’t simply about living longer. It’s about understanding your body, asking better questions and giving yourself the best chance to live well.

Mother. Entrepreneur. Dreamer. Widow. Serial juggler of life’s curveballs. And living proof that fabulous has no expiry date.

Meet , the woman behind Fabled Life building a brand rooted in purpose, empowering women, and navigating life’s unexpected turns with resilience and heart.

Her journey is a reminder that life doesn’t always unfold as planned. There are chapters that challenge us, moments that change us, and experiences that reveal just how much strength we carry within ourselves.

Donnae joins us for A Life Lived — a conversation about the realities of living, navigating loss, finding purpose and continuing to show up for life, even when it looks nothing like you imagined.

Because a life well lived isn’t about having it all figured out. It’s about finding the courage to keep becoming.

And as Donnae reminds us, life may test you, but it doesn’t get to cancel you.
