Under the Sisterhood
The Under the Sisterhood Podcast is where women's lived experiences become a catalyst for understanding, connection, and change.
Hosted by Elizabeth Elfenbein, each conversation invites women from around the world to share their stories with honesty, courage, and vulnerability. Together, they explore the moments that shape our lives—from health and mental wellness to leadership, identity, relationships, caregiving, equity, and the many experiences that define what it means to be a woman.
More than a podcast, Under the Sisterhood is a storysharing platform. Every conversation contributes to Women's Lived Experience Intelligence™, helping transform individual stories into insights that can shape healthcare, innovation, research, and culture.
At Under the Sisterhood, we believe every woman's story matters. Through storysharing, we create space for women to be seen, heard, valued, and celebrated—one conversation at a time.

Today, we’re marching for change with Angélica Fuentes, a mother, daughter, sister, and Mexican-American businesswoman, impact investor, entrepreneur, and lifelong advocate for women’s rights and gender equality.
At just 29, Angélica was appointed CEO of Grupo Imperial, where she helped position the company as a leading force in Northern Mexico’s energy sector. She went on to serve as President of the Mexican Natural Gas Association, President of the APEC Business Energy Network, and later as CEO of Grupo Omnilife-Angelissima-Chivas, one of Mexico’s top corporations.
Her commitment to women’s empowerment has shaped everything she has built, from Muvop, a microfinance and education platform focused on financial empowerment, to Mission Moms, created to support working mothers across the United States and Latin America. Most recently, she founded NOWFUL, a restorative wellness experience designed to support deep recovery, stress relief, and intentional living.
Angélica has served with global organizations including UN Women, the World Economic Forum’s Gender Parity Programme, the UN Foundation’s Girl Up campaign, Global Dignity, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Latino, and the Woodrow Wilson Center.
Her leadership has been recognized by UN Women, the United Nations, PVBLIC Foundation, Maestro Cares Foundation, and Mercado Global for her lifelong commitment to advancing gender equality, dignity, and financial empowerment.
