Individual Testimonials
"I have spent decades of diet after diet, program after program, comparing myself to others and thinking I was not worthy because of my weight. It was time for a different kind of help. A family member told me about Intuitive Eating and I was fortunate enough to find Liah. Nearly a year of working together, I resurrected the intuitive eating signals I was born with and quieted the poisonous messages from society. Liah is a kind and patient coach who lovingly allowed me to see the truth about my eating and weight and love myself for who I am. A different kind of weight has been lifted."
"Working with Liah over the past years has been both an honor and a privilege. During a pivotal and extended period of transition in my life, Liah was instrumental in guiding me as I discovered my true self, both personally and professionally. She helped me identify my core values and use them to make decisions that led to energizing, rather than draining, opportunities. Through her guidance, I was able to truly tap into my intuition and start living the life I’ve always wanted. Liah’s expertise in Intuitive Eating and body liberation is exceptional; she has a unique ability to make complex topics approachable and actionable. Thanks to Liah, I’ve moved from a place of uncertainty to embracing and loving my beautiful life."
“I have worked with Liah for over a year, and her Body Trust coaching has completely changed the way I experience myself in my body. With her gentle guidance and support, I have learned how to begin to reclaim my body as my home, not a billboard that should reflect society’s unrealistic and damaging narratives of health and beauty as the only way to feel worthy of joy and fulfillment. Food and movement are no longer viewed as impacting my body size and shape but as opportunities to connect with pleasure, my children, and nature. I would recommend Liah’s Body Trust coaching to anyone, no matter where you are on your embodiment journey, because she will meet you there, she will match your pace, and she will bring the light.”
“I love working with Liah. She encourages me to use our time in whichever way is most helpful to me at each session, focusing on long-term goals or working through daily pain-points that arise. Through careful listening and thoughtful questioning, she helped me to define and clarify my values which ground me, provide a renewed sense of purpose, and allow me to be more intentional and present in my professional and personal life. She has a rare ability to reflect back my thoughts and feelings which helped me cut through ‘noise’ and find a vision for myself. I highly recommend Liah!!!”
“This was my first experience with coaching, so I wasn't entirely sure what to expect, but Liah meets you where you're at and creates a safe, supportive atmosphere during sessions. When we started working together, I was unsatisfied with my current career path and wanted to return to school to pursue a more creative field, but felt too overwhelmed to take the steps to make the transition.
Liah helped me identify my values, which gave me the clarity I needed to move forward, and inspired me to find ways to honor those values in my daily life. She challenged my perfectionistic tendencies and worked with me to set small, achievable goals between each session.
Through coaching I was able to move from a passive, stuck state to a more energized, proactive one. Liah has been a true anchor as I've navigated the college portfolio and application process and I couldn't recommend her more highly!”
"Liah is truly one-of-a-kind and has certainly found a profession in which she is uniquely skilled. Liah's intuition and deep understanding of the human condition helped me untangle a mess of complicated, interwoven questions that I had been struggling to answer for most of my life. Not only did she help grant me clarity in my aspirations, but she also armed me with tools to help maintain the work we accomplished during and after our engagement. I couldn't recommend her more highly."
“Liah walks the line between providing a space of safety and comfort, and challenging you to do things that make you deeply uncomfortable but are necessary for your growth. Every session, rich with goal-setting and visualization exercises, deepened my professional practice. She helped me get comfortable charging what I actually needed for my services rather than what I thought people would pay. She helped me work toward more consistent balance in a world where it seems the scales are always tipped one way or the other. Most importantly, she helped me build the confidence I needed to embrace vulnerability and imperfection in my personal and professional life. I’m grateful for our time together and the wealth, both financial and personal, it’s brought me.”
“Liah made me feel at ease, seen, heard, and held from the moment I connected with her. She has been my rock and my North Star as I've launched my own business. Liah creates a safe, fun, creative, expansive space from which I can grow, take risks, and fully tap into my super powers. I'm in awe of her ability to be so present, perceptive, wise, and compassionate. Liah is a once in a lifetime coach, and anyone would be extremely lucky to work with her!”
“As a social worker, I was unsure of what to expect from working with an Intuitive Eating Coach and had no idea what the difference was between coaching and therapy. Liah defied my expectations: she helped me to assess my values, gave me thoughtful assignments to work on between sessions, and helped me establish my values in life--something I never thought of within the context of eating disorder recovery. I not only began to explore my relationships to food and exercise, but better yet--learned how to live without the dark eating disorder looming over me. Liah is compassionate, perceptive, and very much client-focused. I cannot say enough about how Liah's work enhanced my life.”
"Liah's coaching allowed me to reframe my relationship with my body. She helped me to verbalize how my current thoughts about my body were no fault of my own but rather a product of the environment I was raised in. She also gave me tools that I plan to use whenever I'm having a bad body image day. I felt that she really listened to me when I was having an issue and appreciated her insights throughout."
“I began Life Coaching with Liah just a few months into the pandemic and can't imagine what navigating 2020 would have been like without her. During a time where it felt like everything was at a standstill and stagnancy was inevitable, Liah helped me identify all of the things I actually had control over and we worked together to manifest some much-needed change! Liah is incredibly perceptive, insightful, and easy to talk to; every coaching session ended with a plan for accountability and the reassurance that she was behind me in my endeavors. I felt supported every step of the way.
Working with Liah re-energized me and I came out of the year with a new job, new hobbies, and a real sense of confidence and empowerment that the pandemic had effectively stomped on. Thank you for everything, Liah!!”
"Working with Liah has opened me up to who I am and to what is truly important to me. She helped me tap into a creative energy that I never knew existed. I feel ready for anything. Put me in, Coach!"
“Liah gets it. Having her as a coach is like having a guide with you every step of the way. Her approach is personalized and engaging and targets all corners of life.
During my coaching experience with Liah, I discovered potential I didn't know I had. She helped me identify my values and how to map the best path to honor them.
After working with Liah, I can honestly say I have more confidence in myself and a perspective that promotes a healthier mind and body.”
“Working with Liah helped me move past the barriers I’d set for myself, and I was able to set and accomplish my career goals. With her guidance, I built the confidence to ask for a raise. Liah is a kind and generous life coach who provides her clients with the toolkit needed to succeed. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their career!”
“Liah is a wonderful coach. I always felt comfortable going into the sessions, knowing she would be understanding and accepting of where I was at that day.
Coaching helped me appreciate the parts of my life that fulfilled me as a person. Giving attention to those parts of myself gave me the courage to change other parts of my life that were not in line with values, and work to remove them.
She helped me work through a very difficult time in my life, and I am much better off for having worked with her.”
“I had the greatest experience working with Liah! I had felt completely lost and Liah was able to help me get through my toughest times. I really enjoyed all of my sessions and the process of working with a life coach. I found it very easy to open up to her, and with every problem I had, she was able to help me look at the issue more clearly and come up with a solution. I am so grateful for all of Liah's help.”
“Liah really guided me through both stressful periods in my life and major transitions. She helped me move from a mindset of narrowness to one of expansiveness and helped me to create frameworks for accessing my values.”
“Liah's radiant support paved the way for transformative leaps in my personal life. With an almost preternatural talent for guidance, she showed me ways to find, understand, and communicate more effectively with my inner self. Together, we developed unique tools for balance, focus and decision making that I find myself drawn to utilizing between sessions. I love working with Liah and appreciate all she has done for me!”
“I have had the unique fortune of experiencing Liah's innate coaching abilities. Throughout our work, focused mostly on relationships and dating, Liah continuously balanced support, challenge, and true comfort in our sessions. Liah's coaching style ignited a new found confidence in me. Now, I embrace authentic self-expression within all relationships. I would recommend Liah over and over again to anybody looking for an empowering dating and relationship coach.”
“I started my coaching sessions with Liah at a point in life when I was thinking about a career change. Every question Liah asked me was on point. She helped me become attentive to my feelings and needs, realize my focus points, and in general, helped me see things clearly. I left each session ever more curious and motivated!”
“As a life coach myself, I contacted Liah because I wanted to have the experience of being on the other side of the call. What started off as a casual experiment on my part has turned into a profound experience.
Although I feel I have a high level of coaching competency myself, it has been eye-opening to see how Liah approaches various issues. Her mastery of the coach’s toolkit and knack for balancing the informative with the experiential not only provides a powerful example of what coaching should be, but has also significantly helped me with stuck points in my personal life.
So much of coaching transcends technique and finds its true power within the relationship. Liah’s warmth and compassion are exceptional. I was immediately comfortable with her and we made great strides from the very first session. Thank you for everything, Liah!”
Group Coaching
"I'd never tried group coaching before but was blown away by how powerful it was to share a safe space with women going through the same thing. Body image has been uniquely challenging to explain to friends and family but this group of women understood immediately and I no longer felt alone. It's an invaluable experience and I'd do it 100 times over."
"I had the pleasure of working with Liah for many months, through two different body positivity groups. I was skeptical of doing a group beforehand, and I couldn’t be happier that I went through it. When asked what I got out of this coaching experience, it is hard to put it into words. This group changed everything for me, I was having the hardest time getting past the idea of accepting my body, and Liah and the other group members provided the most wonderful insight. I went from not being sure if I would be comfortable speaking in the group, to looking forward to it every week, and being extremely sad if I had to miss it. I believe that this group coaching experience is what truly got me over the last hurdle of this journey/recovery. The connections I grew and the perception I received I still think about to this day. Liah was the most amazing coach, she is everything I would have wanted from someone leading a group like this one. Kind, empathetic, understanding, caring, incredibly wise and so much more. I will forever be thankful for this experience, the people I met in groups, and most importantly Liah for changing my brain chemistry and allowing me such a safe space to grow."
“This was my first experience with group coaching. I was nervous but Liah creates a safe and comfortable environment that allows the group to immediately connect and learn from one another. I highly recommend this group to anyone struggling with body related issues. Liah's compassion and warmth are unmatched!”
“Liah’s warm and inviting presence combined with her competency and passion made her ‘Making Peace with Your Body’ coaching group an empowering experience. She evoked deep thought and conversation in a space where I quickly felt safe. Addressing body image has been THE hardest part of my recovery process as well as my biggest aversion, so it speaks volumes of her abilities that I actually looked forward to our Tuesday nights together.”
“The Group Coaching with Liah was a wonderful experience. It was so helpful to meet other women and have an exchange on body image to realize we are not alone with the struggle. Liah guided the group with so much sensitivity and empathy.”
“The making peace with body image coaching group was one of the first times I was able to find community with other girls of varying ages who are going through a similar experience to me when it comes to body/food/ and anxieties. Having this space to gather once a week to bring attention to what is going on for us and break down some of our belief patterns that have been ingrained in us for longer than some of us had even realized has been a very liberating experience. I am grateful for the time I get to spend in group, my only comment is I wish there was more time.”
“I would recommend this group to people at any point in their recovery journey. I felt safe and heard in this group. Liah asks thought provoking questions that leave everyone thinking about how they can alter their relationship with food and body image for the better and I would definitely do this again.”
"My favorite part about group coaching was being able to connect with other women on the same body image journey as me. Although we were all at different points in our journey, many of the feelings we expressed and topics we discussed were mutually understood. It was really empowering and encouraging to connect with other women who also want to heal their relationships with their bodies, and it was a great support system for me."
