Introducing Elizabeth Sherman
I’m chatting with Elizabeth Sherman about women having a distorted relationship with food and how we’re socialised to think about food in an unhelpful way from an early age.
Elizabeth is a Master Certified Health & Life Coach who helps women in perimenopause and menopause manage their symptoms as well as all of the other stressful demands that seem to accompany this season of life:
- the physical changes that menopause and aging produce
- the emotional demands that accompany our life changes and family structures
- the physiological changes of how our body responds to external stimuli and how we respond to those changes
- the mental load that we carry as we change our identity and how we see ourselves in the world
She hosts a weekly podcast called Done with Dieting: a podcast for the woman who, in spite of all of these demands, has been socialized to focus on her appearance, selflessly do for others, and in doing so becomes the best supporting actress in the movie of her own life.
Elizabeth is a Chicago native, but now conducts her coaching business as an Expat in Mexico, and meets with her clients through video: focusing on the areas of health: eating, moving, stress and sleep management, body image and how we think about them through a DEI & feminist lens.
