You’re here because you’re a
Heart-Led Leader & Creative
with big ideas
but you’ve realized that the inner critic in your head is louder than the voice of your vision.
Well, fear not, Cutie ~ keep scrollin’ to see how I can help!
Over here, we are forever obsessed with
helping Heart-Led Leaders & Creative Entrepreneurs
create rebelliously soft & powerful lives, so they can lead with authenticity, embrace visibility, & make an impact with their mission.
Did you know that I fell into a full on panic attack when my TedX talk went viral? I literally had to parent myself through a pep talk sitting on the floor of my shower to calm my heart and nervous system. I didn’t realize how fearful I was of having my body critiqued in an online forum until that moment. And I know I’m not alone.
This fear causes us to play small, hide in the shadows, and minimize the impact we know we can make…and our bodies usually bare the blame.
Until now.
Hiya! I’m Teri
Recovered Good Girl,
body image educator,
speaker, coach, & author.
I help photographers, entrepreneurs, and high-level creatives break free from the inner critic that keeps them playing small & unsure of their gifts. Through my ACE Method, courses, and retreats, I guide leaders to shift their inner voice so they can show up in photos, on stage, and in their businesses with confidence ~ creating not just more visibility, but more impact. My mission is to help creatives lead cultural change by ditching diet culture narratives to show up as their full, magnetic selves.

Yep. This is the talk that went viral and caused me to have a full day panic attack over being seen. Was it worth it?
Hell ya.
“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.”
— Teri Hofford
I am no stranger to the discomfort that comes with swimming upstream to stay true to one’s authentic self.
