What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

I create intuitive coaching containers of safety, love and curiosity where you can feel seen, heard and loved exactly as you are. Permission to be your beautiful BARE self and to fall in love with you, life and all the magic that is here conspiring on your behalf.

Who do you most want to work with?

Moms who want to feel better about food and their bodies so they can create a life that truly fills them up!

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

I’ve been where you are - feeling embarrassed in my body, hiding because of my weight, seeking comfort in food and trying everything I know to “fix” myself...it’s a vicious cycle, right? I’m living proof there is a way to feel liberated around food and body. I know you can, too.

I am a Women’s Resiliency Coach which means I serve highly successful women (in most aspects of their lives) who are ready and very hungry, move their lives from a place of surviving to being a thriving-warrior. We do this by identifying what you may be hiding from. The root cause/s of unwanted weight gain and other not-so-fun-problems and sometimes, addictions, stem from trying to fill a void within us. Based on my personal, professional and educational experience, I will create a safe, non-judgmental, sensitive and caring space to learn how to move from fearful to powerful. No matter how far your problem has gone, there are endless tools I can teach you to turn it around. For good. So are you in or are you out?

As a BARE certified coach, I help women and men learn to love and respect their bodies.  I know from my personal struggle that the endless spin cycle of dieting and depriving yourself of the things you love does not work. I believe that by rediscovering yourself through humor, self-acceptance, and patience your relationship with food will change, and you will see yourself as the wonderful person you are. Permanent change will come when acceptance and joy do.

Who do you most want to work with?

I work with women that are ready to move beyond the yo-yo dieting and body shame that’s made them miserable for years and teach them how to take back their life on their own terms! Ready for unapologetic self-love and confidence? A body you treat exquisitely well? Relationships worth having? Let’s do this!

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

Patti is a Certified Master Life Coach, and has been helping women transform their lives since 2009. She has made it her mission to teach women how to lean into what feels good and ignite pleasure within. No more hiding, no more numbing out and no more shame. Pleasure is the secret sauce to All.The.Things.

Who do you most want to work with?

Women who want to step away from the cycle of endless dieting and stop suffering when they look in the mirror or find themselves in the fridge. Women who are ready to explore how to appreciate their body now, change their relationship with food, and find peace with the process.

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

I am a recovering emotional eater. I ended a 30+ year habit of emotional binge eating and overeating by examining my thoughts, learning how to feel my emotions instead of distract from them, and by changing my relationship with food. I found peace and help other women do the same.

I’m a certified Martha Beck Coach who helps women get CLEAR then take ACTION to get the life they want. I added the BARE certification because it’s the answer I was seeking and knew it would be for other women too. Counting calories, feeling guilty about calories, hating my thighs, and hiding my butt. Tired. Of. That!! When I heard Susan Hyatt talk about her method, I wanted to sing HALLELUJAH! Finally, a focus on ENJOYING life while loving yourself to your healthy best...NOT counting your life into deprivation and denial. BARE uncovers, then strips away, the mental/emotional baggage that connects to most weight issues. I used food to feed work stress, grief, financial, and relationship issues. My clients have similar breakthroughs and love the AHA/EXHALE of learning to lead with self-love instead of self-denial. You deserve BARE because you deserve to BE FREE! I’d love to take the journey with you as your coach.

My coaching practice is centered around helping women discover all the beautiful things about themselves that make them amazing women. Because we all are amazing women, inside and out! Over the years, I have experienced what it’s like to feel unfulfilled and self-conscious about how I look. I have spent years chasing perfect and holding myself to expectations I’d never expect of anyone else. For so long I put others first, doing anything they needed, all while neglecting and falling less in love with myself as each day passed. I know how painful it is to feel this way, and that’s why it’s my mission to help women learn a more joyful, loving, and confident way to live. As a certified BARE coach, I will walk with you through the process of learning to love and appreciate all that your body can do, how to add more joy and pleasure into your life, and how to think thoughts that move you forward instead of hold you back. I will help you end emotional eating and learn to love the body you see in the mirror. I’ll be your biggest cheerleader! Are you ready?

I believe our bodies are containers of our Souls. I give my clients the Owner’s Manual to understanding that. Living from that understanding allows miracles to flow and Divine Guidance to be easily accessible to apply to all areas of their lives to go from sucky to Joy-Filled.

I believe you are all so much more than a number, and I want you to know that too.

Who do you most want to work with?

I work with high achieving women who feel successful in their careers and lifestyles, and still are wondering why they can’t lose weight.....even after trying everything!

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

I am the only one certified BARE coach that shares this life changing program in Spanish for Latin American women, who have to cope also with so much cultural baggage that I share...I understand you and adapted it to our culture. Soy la única coach certificada de este programa que cambia la vida y que lo imparte en español para la mujer Latinoamericana; que ademas de lidiar con el “sentirse” que no logra perder peso, trata de superar muchos tabús de nuestra cultura.... yo soy latina y te entiendo...y BARE transformó mi vida, y lo he adaptado al español y a nuestra cultura

I am a Body Acceptance Mentor certified in the Bare method and a certified Life Coach through the Life Coach School.
I am a disabled woman, too. I was born with a congenital birth defect which paralyzed my left foot. I have no feeling in it (great party tricks), and it is fused in walking position. (No running and no high heels!)
Let's be real, when we live in a society which forms impressions about women based on how we look—and like it or not we do—we figure out pretty quickly that self-confidence and self-esteem do NOT come on a permission slip accompanied by a manual. We have to find it in ourselves. And helping you find your empowerment just happens to be my superpower.
I’m also a Dove Award winning songwriter based in Nashville, TN, and if you’re not careful, you’ll leave our work together with your very own personal theme song (cue Beyonce).

I see you, and I’ve got you.

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

As a woman who lives abroad I know what it is like to live in a culture that rejects my body because of its size. Experiencing pregnancy and breast cancer abroad REALLY tested my self-love when I was told over and over that I was too big. The doctors even said (inaccurately) that my weight caused my breast cancer. I am here to help women reject what culture says and embrace who they are, as they are right now.

I am a physician, BARE coach, Martha Beck coach, and most importantly, a mom who has cared for a sick member of her family for eight years.

Who do you most want to work with?

I love working with high-achieving, badass women who can do anything to which they set their minds . . . and yet can't quite figure out how to love and care for their bodies.

As they begin to feel more vibrant, healthy, courageous, and whole, I'm there to help them make space to make evolutionary shifts in their work, relationships, and everyday lives.

Along with the excellent BARE toolkit, I use techniques I've learned as a Master Certified Coach, an experienced yoga teacher, and a feminist activist.

Who do you most want to work with?

I want to work with women who are so very done with wasting one more moment hating themselves, obsessing about their thighs, or counting calories and points. How about instead I help you not do that anymore and we see what amazing things you can do with all that freed up time and mental energy?

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

A dark sense of humour and a smart mouth. And I’m a huge fact-finder so if you want down to earth no bullshit practical coaching, I’m your huckleberry. Probably shouldn’t work with me if you don’t like sarcasm. Or if you use the word “veggies”. That’s not ok.

I have been a stay-at-home-mom, a working mom, I’ve homeschooled and now I have 3 kids in 3 different schools. I understand the common objections women have with self care, because I have personally worked through those objections myself. As a now retired massage therapist, I spent nearly 20 years in the health and wellness field before becoming a Life Coach. That experience has helped me teach mind/body awareness and instilled in me a belief that limiting thoughts and beliefs have no chance of survival with a woman who takes exceptional care of herself.

You! Of course. I want to help you get pep in your step and help you start living a bigger, braver life!

She’s keeping the pets happy, maintaining a career, or even daily concern for her own mental or physical impairment.

She needs enthusiastic support and encouragement to revitalize and recreate the lifestyle changes necessary to enjoy her dream life, achieve goals and maintain high levels of self care.

What is unique to you that you bring to the BARE process?

I have lived all over the U.S., the North, South, East and West. I have traveled internationally and always interacting with the locals. One thing rings true for women everywhere: we all are seeking connection and to be cherished and respected. Women want to know and feel that they have made a difference in their world. We have sought to discover our identity and purpose through our parents, spouses, children, friends, careers, churches, community institutions, and other places and things. I have searched, too, and I have found that it all comes together as I connect with myself. I nurture myself and take care of my needs. I accept and cherish myself. The journey to a destination of self discovery is available to us all——-let’s travel that path together using BARE principles, life experiences and love.
