Rethink Healthy

Asia’s leading life and health insurance company, AIA Group, is encouraging people to “Rethink Healthy” in its latest campaign from BBH Singapore. The new work challenges long established definitions of what it means to be healthy, promoting a more relevant, inclusive and compassionate approach to health and wellbeing that invites people to reflect on their habits and redefine health in ways that truly work for them.

AIA and BBH Singapore’s campaign follows the stories of three individuals, each experiencing a moment that inspires them to think again about what good health really looks like. The films will be released at monthly intervals, with each one highlighting a different trigger that leads someone to “Rethink Healthy” by showing that stereotypes and established norms of health can sometimes do more harm than good.

The stories are crafted to open people’s eyes, encouraging viewers to pause and reflect on the image of health that society perpetuates and understand how it impacts their own wellbeing and the wellbeing of those they love.

AIA’s first spot focuses on a father’s pride in his high-achieving son, Ben, celebrating his promotions and relentless drive. At the same time, Ben navigates the demands of work and family. As his stresses accumulate with no outlet, he is forced to confront the unrealistic standards that shape not only his own wellbeing but also the life he shares with the people he loves most.

Stuart A. Spencer, Group Chief Marketing Officer, said: “At AIA, we are taking a stand for the health of Asia and taking Rethink Healthy further than ever. Our goal is to inspire one billion people to live Healthier, Longer, Better Lives. To shift behaviours and drive real change, we must confront the outdated ways we define ‘healthy’, and recognise how our daily habits shape not just our own lives, but the lives of our families and communities. Our campaign taps into the emotions that unite us all, including the desire to make our parents proud, the hope for our children’s happiness, and the need to feel fully like ourselves. Through these stories, we aim to spark real moments of realisation that challenge people to rethink what health truly means. This campaign holds up a mirror to those habits and challenges everyone to take control, make meaningful choices, and set out on a journey toward Healthier, Longer, Better Lives for themselves and those they love.”

Khairul Mondzi, Executive Creative Director of BBH Singapore, said: “With Rethink Healthy, we weren’t interested in simplifying the idea of health or wrapping it up in a neat message. The real pressures people face, the quiet sacrifices they make, and the choices they wrestle with are complex and deeply personal. We chose longer-form storytelling because these narratives deserve time and restraint. By resisting the urge to explain or resolve everything, the work challenges narrow definitions of health and allows audiences to arrive at their own understanding, in their own time.”

Sid Tuli, Managing Director at BBH Singapore, said, “It’s an absolute privilege to partner with clients that are trying to make a real difference in helping people live healthier, longer, and better lives. The work aims to make you question your attitudes towards your health and hopefully makes you rethink your healthy.”

The campaign will run across multiple markets over 2026, including Brunei, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Myanmar, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand & Vietnam. Media includes OOH, digital, social, PR, and at events.
