Self Concept and Body Image | Becs Clare
Today we are sitting down to chat with Becs! Becs is an online Women’s Health & Mindset coach who supports women to reach their health & fitness goals by changing the beliefs they have about themselves.
A curvy gal herself, she understands what it’s like to look around at fitness professionals and wonder whether or not they’d just make you do burpees and tell you to eat less. By combining self concept & identity work with fitness strategy she is showing people that diet culture is a thing of the past and the journey to reaching your goals doesn’t have to be as miserable as it’s been made out to be. With a huge emphasis on mental health including this like relationship with food, yourself and exercise she is coaching women to feel their best, achieve their goals not miss out on life during the process.
