Description

Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and isolated as a woman in midlife? Trust me, you're not alone. 

Join me as I explore the societal pressures and expectations that can make this phase of life challenging, from our changing bodies to evolving family dynamics. I'm here to normalize the experience and remind you that we're all in this together.

In this empowering conversation, I dive into the importance of cultivating relationships outside of our partnerships, embracing the physical changes that come with aging, and asking for help as we become matriarchs and caretakers of our families. 

Listen in as I also discuss how to live your best life during midlife and beyond by intentionally surrounding yourself with supportive friends and preserving your health now for a more independent, vital, and vibrant future.

Hey! I love hearing from you. Send me a text. Let me know what resonated with you.

If you’re a woman in midlife who wants better health without obsessing over weight, you’re in the right place. I’m Elizabeth Sherman, a life and health coach and host of the Total Health in Midlife Podcast.

After coaching hundreds of women, I know the real problem usually isn’t “not enough information” – it’s too much of it, and not knowing where to start. With close to 300 episodes, this show can feel that way too.

To make it easy, I created a free Listener’s Roadmap that helps you figure out which episodes are right for you right now. Tell me what you’re struggling with – low energy, emotional eating, stress, sleep, exercise, or all of the above – and I’ll point you to a curated path of episodes and resources to get you moving.
