In this episode of 'Lead Your Life with Debbie Heiser,' Debbie is joined by Elizabeth Sherman, a life and health coach for women in midlife.

Debbie and Elizabeth delve into the challenges faced by women during perimenopause and menopause, emphasizing the importance of emotional health and the interconnectedness of physical and mental well-being. The conversation highlights the societal pressures on women to deny themselves pleasure and the detrimental effects of diet culture.
