What if your wardrobe could help you reconnect to your body — not resist it? In this episode of Get Styled, Elsa sits down with Elizabeth Sherman, Master Certified Life and Health Coach, to explore how embracing our evolving bodies is one of the most powerful forms of self-care. Together, they unpack how style can serve as both mirror and medicine — a way to honor your body through every hormonal, emotional, and physical transition. If you’ve ever looked in your closet and felt like nothing quite fits who you are right now, this conversation will remind you that style isn’t about who you were — it’s about dressing the woman you’re becoming. Elizabeth brings over 18 years of experience helping women in midlife reclaim their vitality through holistic health, feminist coaching, and sustainable habits that actually last. Her insights will inspire you to see your wardrobe — and your body — through a lens of compassion, power, and possibility. - - - - - - - - - If you liked this episode of the Get Styled Podcast, tell your friends!

In today’s episode of the Get Styled Podcast, Elsa tackles one of the most common and consistent topics she hears from women when it comes to style. She’s heard this from potential clients, to friends, loved ones, and of course, all over the social media-verse.  And that is the subject of waiting for our body to be thinner before we invest in our style.  This episode is all about the pervasive myth that smaller bodies = “easier” to dress. That small bodies are “the norm”. And that small bodies are better. Spoiler alert - it’s NOT true.  Today I’m tackling the belief that we need to be in a smaller, thinner body, BEFORE we go through the process of identifying our personal style, or working with a stylist, or before we can feel beautiful and confident in our skin. This is something SO many women struggle with, so let’s dive in and put this myth to bed once and for all. - - - - - - - - - If you liked this episode of the Get Styled Podcast, tell your friends!
