For too long, menopause has been treated as a taboo—a silent passage every woman experiences but few openly discuss. Actress and entrepreneur Naomi Watts takes the stage to shine a spotlight on the “Meno Economy,” where women over 50 in America hold a staggering $15 trillion in spending power. What unites this powerful demographic is a universal life stage too often dismissed, minimized, or hidden. In this groundbreaking talk, Watts explores how normalizing menopause can unlock not only women’s health and dignity but also enormous cultural and economic opportunity. It’s time to bring menopause out of the shadows—and into the marketplace, the media, and the mainstream.

With clarity and conviction, Mallory explores the history, impact, and future of economic resistance, asking whether boycotting is just a momentary disruption—or a long-term strategy to force real change.
