Reclaiming the Wise Woman: How to flourish as a maven in later life - Elizabeth Lovius

This week’s show is with Elizabeth Lovius. Elizabeth Lovius is a Feminine Leadership Mentor who helps women make space for their own healing, wholeness and empowerment.

For over 30 years she has worked as a Changemaker, Leadership Coach, Mentor and Social Entrepreneur specialising in giving leaders – especially women – the headspace to let their wisdom lead. She is an international speaker, author and award winning trainer and facilitator. And a poet.

When leaders think and feel better, they do better and lead better. Working with Elizabeth, in addition to many years of corporate experience, you get a real human being; a warm connection and a lightness of heart. It is in this space of relaxation, enjoyment and ease – where the magic really happens and women discover what they have been looking for has been there all along - they discover who they truly are at Core.

Elizabeth is the Founder of Kindred Spirit Consultancy one of the first 100 Bcorps in the UK where the focus is on business as a force for good – ensuring that business balances the need to create profit with caring for the Planet and the People. Clients include: IBM, itsu, ITV, Pret A Manger, Cook, M&S, Sky, Samsung, and Very.

Elizabeth has over 25 years of experience in all sectors (extensive experience in the Hospitality, Food, Media and Retail Sectors), worked with over 100 organisations on their culture, trained, coached and mentored over 10,000 individuals, and has specialised in the unique challenges and opportunities that leaders, especially women leaders face.

In this show, Lian and Elizabeth explored the missing archetype in our culture: the Wise Woman, why she’s so needed - now more than ever, and how women post-menopause can bring her back into our bodies, lives, families, and communities.

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you’ll learn from this episode:

• In order to reclaim the Wise Woman, we need to reclaim the woman, the whole of her… which is the reclamation of Fox Woman, the Wild Feminine

• I absolutely loved what Elizabeth said about the role of the Maven, moving from doing to teaching what you used to do so well.

• Everyone listens to the Wise Woman as they know she is concerned with what’s good for her whole family or community and her wisdom will benefit all.
