Here’s what’s NOT included:

*Lifetime access to the course means the lifetime of the course itself (as long as the course exists, you’ll keep your access).

What’s the investment?

Coaching is an investment of finances, effort, and time.

Payment is needed to enroll and access the program. Total price varies depending on whether pay-in-full or payment plan options are selected. Payments are non-refundable. This program is not health insurance-, FSA-, or HSA-eligible.

 Time and effort investments are variable:

Can I cancel my order or get a refund?

There are no refunds for the purchase of this program. Payment cancellation or chargeback attempt initiated by you will result in a total and immediate loss of access to the program, including course materials. You may become ineligible to purchase future products and services from me and/or Confident Nutrition. By purchasing using the payment plan option, you also agree that this is a fee owed for services rendered, not a subscription that can be canceled.

I reserve the right to cancel any program or service, or your access to it, prior to full delivery for any reason whatsoever, including an insufficient number of participants or logistical problems (e.g. acts of God, war, strikes, etc.), which may impede service delivery and operations. I may also cancel your access if I feel we aren’t a mutual good fit or our expectations are consistently clashing (this is rare, and less likely to happen if you read and agree to this document). The refund of payments as described in the paragraph below shall release me and Confident Nutrition from any further liability. 

If I cancel the program or your access to it, and you’ve had less than 12 weeks of access and services delivered, you’ll get a partial refund for time remaining in the program.

Do you guarantee results?

The Joyful, Nourished, and Free Guarantee:

Starting a program like this can feel scary. That’s normal, so I want to offer you something to help you feel more confident in your ability to have a good experience. When you go through the 12-week program, you’ll see progress in TBB Alignment and Intuitive Eating, or you’ll be able to stay in the program for another 3 months at no cost.

To qualify for this guarantee, you must do all of these actions within the first 12-week timeframe:

What’s coaching? What can I expect from you? What will be required of me?

Coaching is a collaborative process between the coach (that’s me, Shelly) and the client (that’s you). It’s a method to inspire you toward positive change and maximum wellness, by supporting you and asking questions that lead to self-discovery.

While coaching is not mental health therapy, the nutrition mindset approaches used in this program may involve discussing sensitive aspects of participant’s lives and you may experience uncomfortable emotions. If you feel the need to seek medical advice or mental health counseling for new or ongoing concerns, it is your responsibility to find a licensed provider in your area so appropriate care can be provided before, during, and after the program as needed.

Let’s clarify our expectations so we can work together in the best way possible.

What I expect from you:

What you can expect from me:

Will the coaching calls be recorded?

The regular schedule for the virtual coaching calls will be 10am-11am Pacific, every other Friday. The calls will be recorded. I’ll use the recorded videos internally to review and grow as a coach. They will be shared with current program participants in the list of recorded previous calls and are for private use only, not to be shared with others.

What’s your confidentiality policy?

Above all, when it comes to privacy, I strive to act respectfully to create a safe space for your personal and wellness growth.

Anything said between any two or more group members at any time is part of the group and is not to be shared with anyone outside of the group, except as may be otherwise required by law.

By participating in the group, you agree to keep confidential the names of other members of the group and what’s said in the group.

I may use our conversations as inspiration for other work and content, but will maintain your privacy. I may use your words for anonymous testimonials, unless I have your permission to share your name along with the testimonial. All testimonials may be used anywhere a reasonable person would expect to see a testimonial (online, print, etc).

I may disclose information to mental health providers, the police, or other necessary authorities if I believe you or anyone else might be at risk. This is based on my sole discretion. Depending on other contract work or employment outside Confident Nutrition, I may also be a mandatory reporter of certain illegal activities that I observe or hear reported in this group.

Will this help with diabetes, IBS, or another medical condition?

While the focus on nutrition, self-care, mindset, wellbeing, and practical skills is helpful for caring for our bodies and ourselves in all kinds of medical situations, participating in this program should not be confused with professional medical care.

This program and course may provide general nutrition and wellness information, but they aren’t personalized medical nutrition therapy (using nutrition to treat and prevent specific disease) or medical advice. They don’t prevent, cure, or treat any medical disease or mental disorder, and are not a substitute for therapy if needed.

If you feel the need to seek medical advice or mental health counseling for new or ongoing concerns, it is your responsibility to find a licensed provider in your area so appropriate care can be provided before, during, and after the program as needed.

Will this help me lose weight?

You may want to lose weight, change the shape or size of your body, or pursue another aesthetic goal. There are plenty of pressures and information from healthcare, family and friends, the media, ourselves… the list goes on! And you’ve probably heard a lot of things about only needing to find the right strategy, or use more psychology, or any other tips and tricks and programs that might be out there. You might have even tried them, maybe even with a temporary feeling of success, but it never seems to last (and sometimes feels worse than before).

Imagine instead being able to accept yourself and your body, knowing that it’s okay as it is, while understanding how to make positive changes. Do you feel the burden slowly start to lift?

How freeing would it be to not have to follow food rules, pretend to like veggies, or fear certain ingredients? No more earning or making up for your food. No more driving with the windows down after eating in the car to hide the food smell, or guiltily rushing through foods eaten hastily over the sink.

This program, as with all the services I provide, is from an all food fits, weight-neutral approach.* Let’s see our food and bodies as allies in a fulfilling life, not enemies!

*This can feel like an unusual approach and may not be something you’re familiar with. If you have questions, please reach out to me for a complimentary call to talk about this, your situation, and whether this program is right for you.

What’s the general flow of the program?

In this program, I’ll guide you through twelve weeks of experiences and trainings that come from many years of helping women to develop a healthy and joyful relationship with their food and bodies at any size. You’ll learn and review concepts, experiment with tools and techniques, and through the coaching calls, get personalized support to overcome barriers and apply them in specific situations in your life.

The weeks are designed to guide you in a journey of growth, health, and freedom.

The detailed titles of teachings and activities, as well as the exact outlines for coaching calls aren’t published here, to allow them to flex to group needs. Keep your heart and mind open to whatever experiences come our way.
