Hi! Welcome. You want to learn more about food and body coaching?
I’m assuming you are here because you worry about making the right decision and if you can just figure out the right next step everything will be good/better/fixed? You want to feel good in your jeans. You just need to “get back to” insert every single routine you did right in when you had peak productivity in college? You say you need to stop eating “junk.” You can’t have food in your house because you will “eat it all.”
There is a quote from Naomi Wolf in the Beauty Myth stating "A culture fixated on female thinness is not an obsession about female beauty, but an obsession about female obedience. Dieting is the most potent political sedative in women’s history; a quietly mad population is a tractable one.” We control our bodies as a way to control the chaos. We control our physical size to be “good” to do the right thing - but for who? at what cost? how long has this gone on? How many generations do we keep passing having a bad relationship to food and being afraid of taking up space onto the next generation. All so we can look at a photo of our self and decide we are worthy based on our arm size?
What would we have time, space and energy for if we pivoted and stopped chasing the size we were before we were told our body was a problem? What would be possible?
You want to not feel bad if you have to weigh yourself.
You know you shouldn’t because you love all the body positivity stuff.
You struggle with wanting to feel good in your body, but don’t know what that means other than losing 50 pounds.
You don’t want to keep feeling the way you do about food and your body now. Y
You don’t say it out loud, but the thoughts still creep in about how you aren’t good enough and there is something wrong with you.
I get it and I’ve been there many times. Since 2014, my work as a coach has been focused on working with people on their food, body, movement and self worth. There are other options that aren’t hating yourself or trying to be smaller in every way you show up. There are other options that consume less of your time, money, energy and cycles of beating yourself up. I am here when you are ready.
“Kimberly is a fabulous coach on health and body issues who speaks real truth to the diet industry and all the crap which makes us feel bad about ourselves” ”
“Previously, I tended to have this all or nothing type thinking which usually means I got nothing done. I’m still working on this skill but it is 100 times better than before ”
“I am more in peace with my body and the way I look.”
How a coaching session works and next steps:
Book a one time session or book a package of 10 sessions to be used within 6 months of your first call.
Complete a questionnaire ahead of time if we are new to working together.
I review prior to our call where I’m ready with questions, worksheets (if that’s your thing) and a plan.
At your day and time we both join a private zoom call. Everything is fully customized to you. We can talk about your week, events coming up, I can lead the convo or you can.
You walk away from the session feeling seen, heard, understood, clear, focused and with a plan for next steps.
My email is open to you between sessions.
If you are interested in 10 sessions, but want to jump on a quick call for a vibe check, let’s do it.
“You were able to get to the point within our first hour which is pretty amazing as I know I have a tendency to ignore talking/thinking about things that are too difficult to face. While sometimes, they might not be so difficult with a little help. I like your approach, your style and let’s not forget your language which allows me to say f*ck and s*it when I need to!”
“I am learning to do what I want and need to do! I’ve had moments when I wanted to feel GOOD and didn’t and wanted to be OK and wasn’t. I’m finally now learning how to take things slower being OK with OK (remember your advice from our call - really sunk in!) and most importantly self care - I never realized how I was putting everyone and everything way ahead of me and not taking care of myself. ”
We might talk about:
How to navigate brunch with your friends when they start saying they were “good” this week so they can be “bad” and order fries today.
How to enjoy fitness and come up with an actionable movement plan you actually enjoy.
How to stop hating looking at yourself in the mirror.
How to navigate medical appointments and weight conversations.
How to handle food when dealing with medications or chronic illness.
How to have conversations with your kids about bodies, food and weight when you are activity working on your own.
How to prepare for situations (vacations, weddings, shopping) where you are paying more attention to your body and have more of a desire to restrict or control.
How to stop thinking about how many calories are in foods because you learned the exact number and points value in weight watchers in 2003.
