Celebrate every phase of womanhood
My Momentum: A show exploring women’s health through every life stage
My Momentum is a powerful new talk show that explores how women’s needs, priorities, and strengths evolve through every stage of life. Hosted by Marciel Hopkins-Lourens, the series creates a warm, welcoming space for honest conversations about health, balance, and personal growth.
Good health is about more than eating well and staying active. It’s about adapting. What worked in your 20’s may not work in your 40’s or 50’s. My Momentum celebrates where you are now and helps you plan confidently for what comes next.
Real conversations, real women
Each episode features a guest who represents a specific life phase. Marciel and her guests share authentic stories about the unique challenges and opportunities that come with every stage of womanhood, from youthful energy and resilience to motherhood, midlife transitions and later years.
Panel discussions with Momentum Health and WIFE (Women in Finance Excel) offer practical, easy-to-understand advice on medical aid and financial planning. Skincare experts from pHformula share professional tips, and Marciel guides guests through exercises tailored to their life phase.
The result is a show that feels more like a meaningful coffee-table chat than a lecture - inspiring, reassuring, and relatable.
