Academy Award-winning actress Halle Berry is speaking out about the challenges of aging in Hollywood and her resolve to remain relevant as she approaches 60, reports People. Berry, 59, emphasizes that age should not marginalize women, marking her advocacy for women's health as a key element of her 'second act.'

During a discussion about her upcoming film, Crime 101, Berry highlighted societal and workplace marginalization. Starring opposite Chris Hemsworth, she depicts a middle-aged insurance broker who navigates high-stakes business through perceived beauty.

Determined not to 'be erased,' Berry is on a 'menopause mission,' aiming to speak louder on issues like menopausal taboos, including vaginal dryness. Her initiative, Respin, seeks to redefine menopause and female longevity—empowering herself and other women by rejecting imposed silence.
