ABOUT THE EVENT
Saturday 16 September 2023
Redefining Ageing 2023 - Never Too Late
As a mental health professional, Faith has heard the barriers that hold us back first-hand.
“I never followed my calling”. “I hate my job but need to pay the kids’ uni fees”. “I’m unhappily married but leaving is way too scary.” “My relationship with my mother is set in stone.” “I have to forget about romantic happiness.
That ship has sailed.”
Miraculously, the third phase of life can be a remarkable and liberating opportunity to REINVENT!!!
"Together with her incredible team of volunteers and steering committee Faith delivered the most amazing, educational and inspirational, fun event. It was very well organized from start to finish."

"I cried. I laughed. I smiled. I danced. I was inspired. I was empowered. I was educated. My mind, body, soul, and spirit were nourished. The nonjudgemental atmosphere at the event is addictive each year, drawing crowds back, and is proof that more and more Silver Sirens are becoming a movement of women who, no matter what their age, are supportive of each other."

"I’ve attended the previous events in person and I was concerned about an online event. I invited some friends and we turned it into a party. Sharing the day with other women made it such a special occasion and I didn't feel like I was missing out on being part of the community."

MEET THE FOUNDER OF SILVER SIRENS
Faith Agugu
If you want to shift your inner dialogue about ageing, Faith Agugu is the woman to have in your corner. She has always had the instinct that she would get better with age, and she is hoping to inspire other women into the same mindset, hence Silver Sirens.
In 2018 Faith launched the inaugural Silver Sirens event in Sydney. “We had some iconic Australian women who 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 on the day."
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 and The Guardian.

2023 CHARITY PARTNER
OLDER WOMEN'S NETWORK NSW (OWN)
The Silver Sirens event is meant to not only inspire, but contribute to tangible positive change in older women’s lives. This year we acknowledge the growing number of women over 50 at risk of homelessness and seek to align with individuals and organisations working to reduce this trend. On the day, we will be raising money for NSW’s Older Women’s Network (OWN), who have addressed and run workshops for older women on low incomes and in public housing since the mid-1980s.
They do superb work, and have been a vital, consistent voice for older women who are tackling issues such as elder abuse, income insecurity and domestic violence.
By attending this event, you will help us reduce the trend of homelessness amongst women over 50!
