“You can stay uncomfortable where you are or get uncomfortable where you are going - but only one of those gets you closer to where you want to be.”

Hiya! I’m Teri
and I’m ready to guide you through your next evolution.
Whether you’re a creative, a leader, or simply someone moving through a transition, this work is for people who have outgrown what once fit and are learning how to move forward without abandoning themselves.
You’ve outgrown who you were
and you’re ready to step into your becoming.
I’m Teri Hofford. I teach mindset, body image, and identity through structured practices & experiences designed to support people during periods of change. The work here focuses on dismantling inherited beliefs, building self-led capacity, and developing a steadier internal relationship, especially in moments where old strategies no longer work.
All education offered here is grounded in the
The Geode Theory, a model that uses positive psychology to help folks chip away at what is in the way of them becoming their most sparkly selves.
How we do it:
Each stage of the 4 Path Framework goes through 3 main components to not just learn, but to also ensure integration and activation are taking place.
We go beneath the surface to uncover who you’ve been, who you are, and who you’re becoming.
IDENTITY WORK
INNER AUTHORITY
You learn to trust yourself again:
your voice, your instincts, your desires.
EXPANSION
This isn’t about improving the old version of you.
It’s about expanding into the next one.
SIGNATURE FRAMEWORKS
A transformative, psychology-backed framework designed to move you from stuck and stagnant to self-led and sovereign through Awareness, Curiosity, and Empowered Action.
A groundbreaking framework used worldwide in retreat settings to dismantle body-based beliefs and rewrite the internal narratives that shape how we show up, lead, and live.
Based on Teri's TEDx Talk 5 Reasons You Look Bad In Photos, From Cringe to Compassion is a transformative self-perception framework designed to help you understand why you feel uncomfortable in photos and how that discomfort reveals deeper beliefs about identity, worthiness, and visibility.
The Geode Theory: Chipping Away at Body Image was Teri’s first self-development book focused on chipping away at the distraction of body image insecurity to reveal your authentic & sparkly inner light. Every year we run 2 co-horts to move through the book and corresponding questions with each other.

5 REASONS YOU LOOK BAD IN PHOTOS : THE TEDX TALK
From the Blog
This past week I had the pleasure of driving down to Edmonton (3 hrs from me) to visit my talented friend and BIBC Facilitator, Brina at her Edmonton Studio to record a segment on body image for her upcoming podcast. Prior to me coming down, she had asked if I’d be interested in staying for a breathwork session she was hosting after our time together and I told her I would love to, but it would depend if I was going to drive back home that evening or not. Me saying that was my nervous system trying to get me out of something before I agreed to it.
