BODY LOVE
Let go of dieting, and feel good about and in your body.
Diet culture is everywhere!
It permeates everything from popular TV and movies to how we view our own bodies.
Everyone always seems to be on a diet or just finishing one, and that kind of attitude can quickly damage your perceptions about your body.
The truth is,
67% of women are trying to lose weight*
75% of women report disordered eating behaviors or symptoms consistent with eating disorders. That’s 3 out of 4 women*.
53% of dieters are already at a healthy weight and are still trying to lose weight*.
80% of people who lose a significant portion of body fat will not maintain the weight loss for 12 months
Simply put, diets don't work.
Nourishing your body works. Building health from the inside out works. Not just physical. I’m talking mind, body and soul.
Body Love is the 60-day reset designed to help you un-wire habits that are not serving you back and re-wire new healthy habits in order to achieve your truest desires.
You will learn the difference between biological and emotional hunger, how your hormones play an integral role in weight loss and management, and what foods nourish your body while working in harmony with your hormones.

Constantly struggling between “good” and “bad” foods.
Feeling guilty for eating or indulging.
Restricting yourself from entire food groups.
Always idealizing thinness and weight loss whether it’s healthy or not.
And feeling like you’re unattractive or unworthy due to the way your body looks or feels.
Constantly Confused about what to eat, and how best and how often to move or workout.
You are no longer interested in looking like a picture of health, you want to feel true, vibrant, colorful health.

“Linda keeps it real. She tells you the hard things that you don’t want to hear, but need to. That “tough love” if you will. But, never without a pep talk or advice to go with it. She’s not a sugar coater, she’s honest. .”

Hi there! I’m Linda
Founder and Head Coach of Life in Color. I spent 15 years of my life struggling with body image. Dieting was a consistent state. I was a frequent traveler on the fat-free revolution train. And, I spent many hours in the gym crunching, planking, and sweating in the hopes of achieving the coveted six-pack.
It wasn’t until I had the opportunity to attend a presentation from Dr. Mark Hyman in 2016 where I learned the realities of the food and diet industry, that I fully understood what I was doing was not the way to health. It was the complete opposite direction. It was depriving, absolutely exhausting and unsustainable. And, I was no longer interested in it.
It was not an overnight change. It took years (and support) for me to learn how to un-tell the stories that I (with the help of society) had written and learn how to nourish my body and truly understand what it needs. And if this former carb addicted, cardio queen can do it, so can you. I am super passionate about helping women drop diets and build a healthy, vibrant, and colorful relationship not only with food, but most importantly themselves.
I am a NASM Certified Nutrition Coach and an AFAA Certified Group X Fitness Instructor &. Coach and am currently studying for my Behavior Change Specialist certification.
What you eat has a huge effect on how you think, feel, and act throughout your life. Learning how to let go of diet culture where whole food groups can be cut out, leaving your body without necessary fuel, and embracing mindful eating can change your entire perspective on what life is all about.
This program provides you with the tools and support you need in order to ditch dieting and embrace health.
Time to Thrive is about more than just ditching diets. It’s about building health.
It's about feeding your body consciously, it’s about understanding how your body works so you know all the nutrients you need for a day and that you see your body as the amazing, beautiful machine it truly is!
Each lesson in Time to Thrive builds on the previous and is laid out to give you both awareness and the tools you need to process the thoughts and emotions that arise from that awareness.
WEEK ONE & TWO
Recognizing Diet Culture
The first step to finding a solution is to recognize the problem in its entirety and to identify your why. Your why is your North Star for any big change you desire to make. Your why will help keep you motivated and grounded. This week, you’ll review the realities of diet culture and what beliefs and challenges you face as a result of it.
WEEK TWO & THREE
Setting the Stage
This week builds on week one and guides you through what you can do within your home and everyday to proactively address or remove anything that stands in the way of your success.
WEEK THREE & FOUR
Processing Emotions
Eating and emotions can be tied together closely. Learning tools on how to process and ride those waves will help you adjust not only your eating, but your mindset. This week helps you create balance.
WEEK FIVE & SIX
Creating Body Positivity
This week is all about acceptance and learning to appreciate your body and care for it right here, right now, instead of waiting for “later” or “when I reach”, or “when I lose.”
WEEK SEVEN & EIGHT
Nourishment over Dieting
This week focuses on giving you the tools you need to make healthy choices with foods that nourish your body instead of constantly restrict it through a diet.
WEEK NINE & TEN
Food for Feeling Good
This week will build on week five and will provide you a greater understanding as to why food is medicine and the types of foods that not only nourish your body, but help you thrive. In week six we talk about gut and hormone health as well as balancing blood sugar.

Identifying what Doesn’t Work
This week is all about acknowledging what foods don’t help you to feel your best and learning strategies to replace and/or moderate these often very addictive foods.
