Intuitive Eating & Body Image Coaching:

In my private Intuitive Eating and Body Image coaching you will learn how to free yourself from the tight grips of diet culture, how to eat without guilt or shame and be empowered to come home to the wisdom of your body so you can experience a life of more peace, authenticity and joy.

How much time and energy do you spend worrying about food & your body?

How much mental space is taken up obsessing over what you’re eating, exercise & how much you weigh?

How much money have you spent in the pursuit of a smaller body? 

I’ll take a wild guess that it’s a LOT! ;)

Constantly ruminating about what you’ve eaten, stressing about the number on the scales and on your fitness tracker, losing weight only to regain it again, feeling like you’re never good enough and constantly looking for external validation outside of yourself. 

If this sounds like you, I see you…

I know how exhausting it can feel to be stuck in this cycle, to deeply desire change, but at the same time to feel trapped, without a way out. It leaves you feeling lost and overwhelmed.

You long for a life of freedom & peace but the process of giving up food restriction and ‘control’ feels scary & overwhelming and when you try to start letting go of food rules you find yourself ruminating about the same things over & over…

“When will I stop eating ‘so much’?”

“Will I ever want to eat vegetables again?”

“I can’t stop eating the foods I previously restricted”

“I don’t feel comfortable in this changing body”

“I don’t feel interested in exercise”

“Everyone around me is still dieting and I feel alone”

“The pull back to diet culture is so strong”

“I’m losing my old identity”

“Nobody understands what I’m doing”

I know how much you desire a calm and free relationship with food and your body but no matter how many inspirational anti-diet accounts you follow, no matter how many podcasts you listen to, or how many books you read… you still feel confused and things just don’t seem to move. 

The concept of Intuitive Eating sounds exciting, and intriguing (and it makes sense!)… yet at the same time you're still feeling out of control around food, thinking about food constantly, questioning every food choice & continually wondering whether you’re doing this Intuitive Eating thing ‘right’? 

You’re done with dieting and you can’t do another diet. But the truth is, you obsess over the idea of gaining weight.

In all honesty, you still have no idea HOW to integrate all the things you’re learning into your own life.

It is one thing for your brain to understand Intuitive Eating and body acceptance, but actually embodying it and understanding HOW to practically work it into your life is another.

Well friend, you don’t have to do this alone. 

Together, we build awareness. 

We build courage. 

We build resilience. 

We build self-compassion.

We build self-trust.

It’s time to remember that you have all the wisdom, knowledge and answers already inside YOU, right now, you just need help finding it and trusting it.

IMAGINE A LIFE WHERE YOU…

• Could walk past the mirror and have a more kind and positive reaction to the person in front of you!

• Finally break the legacy of food and body shame in your family!

• Could finish your meal when you felt satisfied.

• Were free to choose what you genuinely wanted from a menu & not what you thought you 'should' have.

• Could have chocolate & chips in the house without HAVING to eat them all in one sitting. 

• Never had to diet again. No more 'diet starts tomorrow' or the fear of impending restriction on the horizon.

• Woke up every day without the instant anxiety of food & body thoughts swirling through your head.

If you’re anything like my clients, I’m willing to bet that you’re feeling the polar opposite of this right now.

Exhausted and feeling constantly anxious & guilty about food and your body.

Disconnected from your body's inner cues & hunger and fullness signals.

Overwhelmed with self-doubt and continually feeling insecure & not ‘good enough’.

Struggling with a fraught, chaotic & stressful relationship with food.

Lost and uneasy about HOW to let go of food restriction.

Stuck in the binge-restrict cycle.

Stressed about maintaining a certain weight.

At war with and distrustful of your body.

Externally controlled by food rules and constantly worrying about what you’ve eaten, and what you’re going to eat next.

“Why did I eat so much?”

“I have to be ‘better’ tomorrow? “

“Why can’t I just be more disciplined?”

& despite your best intentions, it feels like things just aren’t getting better. It makes you feel stuck and powerless.

& it’s not because you don’t want to change & have a more free and easy relationship with food and your body.

You want this more than you’ve ever wanted something before. To feel like you could eat without fear, guilt or dread… It just feels so out of reach.

So, why is that?

Diet culture disconnects you from the wisdom of your body and it wants you to believe that you can’t be trusted (and there’s a LOT of money to be made in that distrust!).

I know that you've been taught that you're only safe if you're outsourcing your food decisions and following external food rules, plans, or the advice of ‘health’ and fitness ‘gurus’. Because only *they* know the secrets about how and what to eat in order to be ‘healthy’ right?!

I want you to remember though that you were born knowing how to eat...

When a baby is born, and in their first minutes of life, that precious little human can use their natural instincts to crawl towards the breast and begin feeding. 

It's just that over time, diet culture has disrupted your ability to listen to and trust your body’s inner wisdom. And you begin to forget how incredibly clever your body is and become too scared to listen to what it is telling you.

And the result of this? A disconnection with your own body.

Remember, YOU are the expert of your body. YOU know more about your body’s needs than anyone else possibly could. 

And, your relationship with food and your body doesn’t exist in a vacuum. 

Your beliefs about food and your body didn’t just magically happen!

You have soaked up this messaging through your entire life and internalised these messages.

I’m here to tell you that you are not to blame and you are not ‘broken’. 

This isn’t about you not having enough discipline or willpower. 

Diets are set up to fail and our oppressive and toxic fatphobic culture is set up to make you feel like your body is wrong.

And you can be successful and fulfilled in so many areas of your life, and still feel completely consumed by food and body thoughts.

Here's where I stand:

Dieting isn't self care. Nourishment is self-care.

Your purpose on this earth is not simply to give other people a 'pleasant' aesthetic experience of you. 

Diet culture is just another way to deny women pleasure, and make us feel guilty for desiring pleasure.

Your life is precious and short. 

It’s time to stop being at war with your body and being controlled by food rules and time to start trusting yourself, and your body's inner cues and desires.

You deserve to be free.

And here’s what I know does NOT work …

X Starting another diet or fitness regime in the hopes that it will change the way you feel about yourself, improve your body image or increase your sense of self-worth. I know it *feels* like you’d be happier and more confident. But when your body has changed in the past did you feel a sudden sense of deep inner peace, confidence and joy? Did your self-doubt magically melt away? 

X Blaming and shaming yourself, as this is never an effective way to create meaningful change.

You don’t need more of these things, what you need is to reconnect with and come home to the inner wisdom of your body. Because every time you ignore or deny your hunger you break a sacred sense of trust with your body.

The relationship between you and your body is reciprocal. You are working to trust your body's signals again and your body is working on trusting you to take care of it, to give it enough nourishment, and to listen to it when it speaks to you. 

Learning to recognise, listen to, and take action on your hunger cues is one of the key ways that you begin rebuilding trust with food and your body again. 

The truth of it is… if you don’t make a commitment to change and take action now, you’ll find yourself exactly where you are in 5 years time.

That’s where I come in…

I support you to:

1. Uncover & unlearn: Reframe your food rules and body beliefs & divest from diet culture & and the diet mentality.

2. Reconnect to your body: Learn how to trust and listen to your body's hunger and satiety cues without restriction or feeling out of control around food.

3. Practice: Through experience and practical strategies you will work through mindset blocks, reframe your thoughts and rewire your brain to eat with freedom and have a more neutral relationship to your body

4. Embody & integrate: This part takes time and involves transitioning from understanding the concepts of Intuitive Eating & body acceptance on an intellectual level to integrating them on an embodied level

5. Align: Rebuild & reassess. Who are you without dieting? What is really important to you? What do you value in life?

Your body is wise and deeply intelligent. 

It has a deep inner knowing and is the portal to your inner wisdom.

It has so much to teach you and to tell you. 

Your body is your best compass in navigating out of where you are right now, & she is waiting for you.

Are you ready to…

• Live a life of more freedom, peace, pleasure and joy in all areas of your life from health to work and relationships.

• Learn how to eat without guilt or shame whether you’re out for dinner, breakfast with a loved one, or home alone on your lunch break.

• Stop scouring the menu for the ‘healthiest’ option, and stop stressing about what’s on your plate so that you can connect more deeply with your partner, your friends, your colleagues, and your children.

• Get your time and mental space back so that you can join that book club, sign up for that salsa dancing class, learn a language, start a side hustle, or sign up for that art class or creative writing course you’ve been putting off for years.

• Move away from dieting and body small talk, and start connecting with people about the deep, interesting and exciting stuff that really matters so that you can find your people, who thrive on having real, honest conversations that go beyond what they ate for breakfast, how ‘healthy’ or ‘unhealthy’ they were on the weekend, and how much weight they have lost or gained.

• Start feeling more confident in your own skin, and show up as your authentic self so that you can express yourself openly and honestly, speak up in a room full of co-workers, ask for the raise, advocate for yourself, and set better boundaries.

• Learn how to recognise the way your emotions show up in the body and not simply resist them, so that you can stop living on autopilot and in a state of reactivity, self-judgement and panic.

• Have a more peaceful and kind relationship with your body as it is today and worry less about what other people think of you, be in the photos & capture precious memories, and even have better sex!

• Start feeling more confident in your own skin, and show up as your authentic self so that you can express yourself openly and honestly, speak up in a room full of co-workers, ask for the raise, advocate for yourself, and have more fun!

Build up a sense of purpose and worth which has nothing to with your external shell so you can start spending more time living from the inside out and bring the focus back to how YOU experience the world and not how the world experiences you.

And finally become more attuned to the inner wisdom and intelligence of your body so that you can recognise, trust and take action on your inner cues . And when you trust yourself more, feelings of anxiety decrease because you spend less time worrying about every possible ‘what if’ scenario, and what other people think of you.

My coaching isn’t just talking.

It's about empowering YOU to come home to the inner wisdom of your body.

It provides you with practical strategies and tools, and body based practices to help with emotional regulation, and come home to your body again.

We walk hand-in-hand together so you feel fully supported throughout the process.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

You’re ready to go all in, willing to do the deep work, and have access to my highest level of support throughout the entire process.

Want the strength to grow beyond your insecurities.

You want the space to share honestly and vulnerably and uncover beliefs you didn’t even know were keeping you stuck.

You want someone who values the wisdom of your body and your lived experience, and who sees you, hears you & supports you to feel less alone and more empowered and confident to reach your goals.

If you’ve made it this far - I’m talking to you:

You’re all the way at the bottom of this page, so I know I’m speaking to your heart.

My question for you is - where do you want your life to be in 5 years time?

Do you want to be experiencing the same things you’re experiencing now, with no clear indication of how things will change?

Are you willing to continue spending your one precious life micromanaging your food and weight, feeling guilt and shame around food and your body, and holding yourself back from living in your true potential?

Are you willing to let your ideas of who you are right now keep you small, and trapped into a small and limited version of who you really are?

Or…

Do you want to choose a new future? A new reality, one where you will open yourself to a reinvention & transformation.

One where you get to consciously create a life where you feel lighter, freer, present, connected & more authentic and grounded in a deep sense of self-trust.

One where we get to partner together to work through challenges and struggles, so that you can stop being controlled by external rules (and your inner critic!) and feel empowered to trust the inner wisdom and intelligence of your body without feeling overwhelmed or alone.

It’s your choice… but let me leave you with this

You spend every moment of every day with yourself. 

You are living in your body 24 hours a day. You are living with your thoughts & emotions all day. You spend more time with yourself than anyone else on the planet.

It is a relationship worth investing in.
