Promoting Open Conversations About Menopause
Berry has become a powerful voice encouraging frank discussions about menopause and aging, topics often shrouded in stigma. She advocates for embracing the natural changes that come with growing older, breaking societal taboos surrounding these experiences. In an interview with Oprah Daily in September 2024, she emphasized the importance of self-acceptance:
“We have to stop trying to be eternally 30 and allow ourselves to be whatever age we are,”
“We need to embrace ourselves, embrace our body as it changes, embrace our space as it changes. We are blessed to be here. Real confidence and a sense of feeling sexy and empowered come from knowing that we do get better with every year. Society has told us that when we turn a certain age, we’re no longer valuable, vital, important. That there’s no use for us. But we have to stand up and say no. I reject that theory.”

Berry also spoke about menopause on Good Morning America on August 15, 2024, where she stressed the normalcy of this life phase and spoke against negative perceptions surrounding it:
“It’s a normal stage of life. It’s what we’re going through. It’s not a disease. Don’t make it a negative,”
“Let’s talk about it, and let’s figure out what we can do.”

Impact of Berry’s Advocacy on Age and Self-Confidence
By openly embracing menopause and aging, Halle Berry challenges the prevailing cultural notion that aging diminishes a person’s worth. Her passionate stance encourages people, especially women, to celebrate their evolving selves with confidence and joy. Berry’s unapologetic attitude serves as a reminder that empowerment grows with each year, and that happiness is a lifelong pursuit not confined by age.
As Berry continues to share her journey candidly, she is likely to inspire more open conversations and help diminish the stigma around menopause, fostering a supportive environment for women to feel valued and beautiful at every stage of life.
