COFFS Harbour’s “Silver Sirens” group held its inaugural event last Saturday 28 February, at Yarilla Place.
“Ageless Beauty: Inner Foundations and Outer Expression” provided participants with “a space to breathe, reflect, and connect with other women who truly ‘get’ this stage of life,” Silver Sirens founder Faith Agugu said.
“Silver Sirens exists to change the story of ageing for women over 50, from invisibility and decline to visibility, vitality and possibility.
“Our vision is a global community where women feel connected, valued and inspired to step into their later years with confidence and purpose.”
The event began with a grounding and breathwork session led by well-known yoga teacher and wellness coach, Suzi Joseph.
Lynda Marshall, from “Life Mastery Now”, followed-up with a session about techniques for managing emotional states by identifying emotions and practising strategies for calming and focussing.
After morning tea, the last session about building female friendships and connections to provide self-support and support for others, was led by Francesa Hunter.
The event concluded with participants sharing personal strategies for enhancing self-validation and positiveness.
Ms Agugu said, “We’re especially delighted to be growing our presence in Coffs Harbour, where we’ve already hosted two conferences in 2024 and 2025.
“Coffs was our first regional conference location, and it’s been incredibly heartening to see the community here embrace Silver Sirens and help this movement grow.”
Coffs Harbour Silver Sirens is the first group established outside of a state capital, and a spokesperson said the group hopes to conduct regular bi-monthly events.
