The reason you're able to access this website at all is largely due to Cathy Heller and her podcast. Listening to her enthusiastic encouragement cut through all the self-doubt and noise in my head that had been preventing me offering my Self-Love Diet services to the world. Truly, it changed my life. And now it's my hope that I can help change yours.

Body Love Focused Podcasts
​
Listening to these podcasts were integral in undoing and re-programming old, negative, and untrue beliefs I held about food and diets. They played a pivotal role in loosening the grip that diet culture had on me and opened my eyes to my fat phobia, disordered eating, weight stigma, and how all of this is a social justice issue. I'm forever indebted to these courageous activists.
