  • In the latest episode of the FemCity Podcast, FemCity Founder, Violette de Ayala is joined by FemCity Founder's Member and Life + Health Coach Elizabeth Sherman. Elizabeth shares nutritional, wellness and practical tips for women in their post productive years.

    About Elizabeth Sherman // Elizabeth helps women in midlife to prioritize their health so that their health doesn't get in the way of the things that they want to do. She is a holistic life and health coach, understanding that our physical health does not exist in a vacuum, and is greatly impacted by our emotional and mental health. Women in midlife have so many things that are changing in our lives: our hormones, our families (empty nest, parents that need more support, and for many that impacts our primary relationship), we want more from our friendships, and are starting to ask the big questions, like, "What IS my purpose here?" By focusing on our health, we can uncover so much self-empowerment.

  • Tune in to the latest episode of the FemCity Podcast, where FemCity CEO Violette de Ayala sits down with Dr. Cristie Ritz-King, a member of the FemCity Founder’s Circle, and trauma therapist, maternal mental health specialist, and mindfulness teacher.
