Elena’s Testimonial
“I think it was really valuable for me to learn how much society has impacted my view of myself and my weight. In this sense, it helped me accept my body and not feel like being "fat" was such a disgrace but rather society's problem that they've labeled me this way.
Also, framing up food as neutral and helping me listen to my body for hunger cues has been pretty transformative and for that, I will always be grateful."

Maria’s Testimonial
“It was really great to talk with and hear from other women who had similar dieting experiences. I previously felt so much shame about the fact that I had dieted so much in the past and so much guilt about the strong desire I had to lose weight. It felt like admitting I was weak and that I was never able to able to resist the allure of these fad diets.
It was nice to hear from other women who had similar experiences and reflect as a group on WHY we felt we needed to lose weight. I no longer feel ashamed that I used to diet, I now feel happy that I don't anymore and am more willing to be open and honest about these experiences with people so hopefully, people in my circle can see the possibilities beyond dieting.
I no longer feel like the weak one it was very empowering to just get mad at diet culture with other women and realize that we ALL have so much more to look forward to and shrinking isn't going to help us.”

Chabeli’s Testimonial
“Working with my Dalina changed my life! For 27 years, I tried every diet I would come across and prescribed to the idea that my worth was tied to my weight, which led to an obsession with limiting food intake and hating my body. She armed with 10 principles to guide my intuitive eating journey but also helped me debunk so many misconceptions around organic products, "good" vs "bad" food, GMO, vitamins, fat people and health, and my fear of diabetes and high blood pressure.
She also understood the Hispanic culture I grew up in, which allowed me to bring my full self to all my sessions, as well as unpack my obsession with trying to make Hispanic food "healthy", and empowered me to combat my family's negative comments around weight.”
