News Flash From One Of My Clients

One of my clients asked me if he could share his success story and inner journey with people who were considering working with me. I thought you may find it helpful…My client did all the work and yet the tools I provided him guided his success. He asked me to share the following with you…

After years of severe obesity, over 30 years and yo yo dieting, I decided to sign up with Laura Fenamore’s body esteem coaching program for 6 months. And what a difference. I lost 25 kg (55 lbs) 11 months later. And I gained a lot of self confidence!

Laura helped me dig into my emotional state of being, finding which beliefs were holding me back and holding me accountable for my progress. To summarize here is what I learned working with Laura.

I learned your weight and appearance is not who you and I learned that who I am is ok. I no longer make myself wrong.

I am 100% responsible for my situation.

I learned how to love and accept myself unconditionally.

Healthy eating habits, physical exercise and meditation is not optional
for optimal living – it is necessary.

You always know what is right for you; you only need quiet down and listen.


My client is open to speak to anyone who wants to hear about his success first hand. Email me if you would like for me to put you in touch with him.

Wishing you peace as this first month of 2008 comes to a close.

Peace, Laura Fenamore

What do you see when you look in the mirror?

My dear friend Joe Tye who is a speaker and writer posed these questions in an email to me which I think you will find valuable…

Question #1: What do you see when you look in the mirror? Is your self-image that of a winner who can substantially determine your future through your actions, or as a victim who is helplessly under the control of other people and outside circumstances?
Question #2: Do you like what you see when you look in the mirror? Low self-esteem is often the excuse we give to rationalize away our cowardice and laziness - if we don’t believe we deserve to achieve and to belong, we’re much less likely to even try.

Any time we look in the mirror and pretend to see less than what is really there, any time we turn our backs on our own incredible potential, that’s exactly what we are doing. I want you to think what it would take for you to be present to the incredible person that you are?

Practice starting today by looking at yourself in the mirror for a minimum of one minute and say wonderful things to yourself….one minute a day to begin. A minute is not a lot to ask for and you are so worth it!

Do You Accept The Body You See In The Mirror?

How many of you can relate to this situation? You notice that you put on a few lbs. and you also notice that every time you pass a mirror, you either look the other way, walk as quickly as you can or say something derogatory to yourself? These statements that you say to yourself can be anything from, “your legs and your belly are disgusting” to “you are helpless and hopeless and will NEVER look good”. I have a strong suspicion that many of you can relate to this story. And what I also suspect is that many of you make yourself wrong for not having a perfect body and not having enough “will power” to change it. That somehow if you get the facts right, you will be cured. Here is what I know after years of working as a body esteem coach with hundreds of clients. That negative self talk in regards to our body will forever keep us stuck. That while looking back is necessary; from my vantage point most people stay stuck in the painful story and need concrete tools to move forward.

All forms of abuse have an impact on us. Freedom comes when one begins to change specific daily practices from self abuse to self empowering. Overeating, under eating and controlling one’s diet are all symptoms of a bigger problem called self abuse.
