Now she helps women build healthy relationships with themselves from the inside out. Her coaching focuses on shifting the attention off of appearance to better cultivate true self-acceptance, self-trust, and confidence. She\'s currently training to be an Intuitive Eating Lay Facilitator, so that she can help women apply these concepts to their relationships with food.
