🌍On World Health Day, MoneyFM 89.3’s Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen talks with SCWO CEO Koh Yan Pin and Dr Sherry Aw from James Cook University Singapore, co‑authors of a new landmark study examining the mental wellbeing of midlife women.

Surveying nearly 500 women, the study reveals a stark reality: workplace stress, family conflict, relationship challenges, and caregiving responsibilities form a cumulative pressure cooker that significantly increases symptoms of anxiety and depression. Many respondents reported mental health struggles that have gone unaddressed for years often because they are too busy supporting everyone else.

We explore why midlife women are the backbone of Singapore’s workforce and families, yet rarely the focus of mental health policy. What does this mean for an ageing population? For employers? For national wellbeing?
