We were inspired by the powerhouse women on stage for "A New Narrative for Women in Midlife: The Menopause Gap" discussing the fabulousness of midlife & the next 50 years at the SIE Society Impact + Profit 25 conference!

The panel explored why menopause is rarely represented on screen—and when it is, why it’s often treated as a punchline. Geena Davis Institute President & CEO Madeline Di Nonno revealed the groundbreaking new GDI study, Menopause and Midlife, which exposes how films have portrayed women over 40 during the past five years. The panelists shared insights and best practices for reframing outdated stereotypes and redefining how women’s midlife stories are told on screen. We are excited to see how this shapes new screen stories and depictions of women's lives!
