About Event

​The conversation continues.

​At our last session, we opened the door on menopause: what it is, how it shows up, and why it matters for women in leadership. The response was overwhelming. The questions kept coming. And it became clear that one conversation was never going to be enough.

​So we're going deeper.

​In Part II, we move from awareness to action. This session brings together the clinical expertise of Dr. Rilwan Adan, Head of the Diabetes Care Centre at Lions SightFirst Eye Hospital, to unpack one of the most discussed yet least understood developments in women's health right now — the intersection of menopause, weight, and GLP-1 medicines.

​GLP-1 medications have taken the world by storm. But what do they actually mean for women navigating menopause? How does hormonal change affect weight, metabolism, and the way your body responds to treatment? And what does a realistic, sustainable 90-day health reset actually look like?

​This session answers those questions: plainly, clinically, and without the noise.

​What we'll cover:

  • ​The hormonal and metabolic changes that drive weight gain during menopause

  • ​What GLP-1 medicines are, how they work, and who they are actually for

  • ​The risks, the benefits, and the questions every woman should be asking her doctor

  • ​How to build a practical, realistic 90-day health reset that works for your body and your lifestyle

  • ​What board members and senior leaders need to know about managing their health at this stage of life
