Lose the
emotional weight.
Welcome to The Wellness Collective, a live coaching program for women who want to achieve peace with food, increase body confidence, and transform their health.
the wellness collective
The program that helps you learn intuitive eating so that you can stop sabotaging your health.
the Truth is…
Your refusal to eat the cookie is the reason you haven’t lost the weight.
Why? Because the #1 response to diet deprivation is binging on the food you think you can’t have – meaning you likely only want the cookie because you created a rule about not eating one.
This is what Founder, Keri Ford, calls the Emotional Currency™ of food – the moment in time, the inception, of how food gains power over our emotions. And if we’re not deeply aware, our actions keep us stuck in cycles of self-sabotage.
After enduring an eating disorder post-college, miscarriage after fitness competitions, and gaining back the same 20 pounds over and over again, Keri was driven to liberate women from the inner hell she experienced around food and her body.
The thing is… 95% of all diets will fail.
But it’s not your fault.
Meet Your Wellness Collective Team!
I’m Keri Ford
I’m the founder of The Wellness Collective and this unique approach to self-healing. Embodiment practices and the unlearning of diet culture has been the gateway to my own personal transformation by harnessing my intuition to create success in every area of my life.
The development of my processes such as Food Mapping™ and BodySpeake™ Biohacking have been called “revolutionary” and “brilliant”. In addition, I have been awarded by the International Forum on Advancements in Healthcare (IFAH) as a Top 100 Global Visionary in Wellness for Alternative Medicine.
My professional application and teaching of my methods has proved WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS for long-term results, loved-based motivation and nourishment from a cellular level.
For more than 12 years I have coached hundreds of women, and have trained celebrities such as Ali Sweeney, from NBC’s The Biggest Loser, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Kaley Cuoco, from the Big Bang Theory.

they’ve been lying to us…
The diet industry has been designed to make you feel like a big, fat failure.
It is a $72 Billion Dollar Industry built on pushing diet products and platforms, not paradigm-shifts or plateau-breakthroughs.
The short version?
They profit from your failure.
And that’s why when you say “nothing works” – you’re right.
Because…
It’s NOT a downloadable diet that’s going to fix things.
It’s NOT another new, color-coded planner with all the compartments.
It’s NOT that you don’t believe that having it all is possible.
It’s NOT that you won’t put the work in.
It’s NOT that you don’t have willpower.
What I realized hundreds of women that came to us were actually doing:
Starving for self-love
Eating or avoiding their feelings
Finding themselves hungry for happiness
…and if we’re being honest – us too
We know that “before & after pictures” only show part of the story (which is why we don’t share many of those from clients – we have hundreds).
But we get it. And that’s why it felt important for you to see Keri’s:
“I felt like the outside didn’t match the inside.”
My physical body, unsurprisingly, looked exactly like I felt in my emotional body.
I was sad, tired, and hopeless.
It seemed like I was trapped in my body.
Stuck in an endless cycle of gaining and losing the same 20 pounds.
The most frustrating part was that I didn’t struggle with motivation.
I struggled with the idea that as a smart and successful woman, the outside didn’t feel like it matched the inside.
And I couldn’t seem to “outwork it” or “figure it out.”
That is when we discovered what you are really seeking are:
Tangible self-healing techniques & tools so you can finally love your body
Deeper awareness so you can recover from disordered eating cycles
Professional coaches that specialize in teaching you HOW to reprogram your self-sabotaging behaviors so you can transform them into healthy habits ⠀
Learning the difference between an emotional and physical craving
A program that nurtures your feminine intuition so you can reclaim your power over food
Support from other women that understand your food and body image struggles
Because the secret is… that you don’t need to diet ever again.
In fact, your body knows EXACTLY what to do.
Here is what the program will teach you:
Intuitive eating is food freedom
Radical self-love is your revolution
Awareness over obedience is allowed and encouraged
Sustainability is sexy
Motivation has never been the issue.
In fact, women like us are:
Incredibly motivated and driven
Wildly Intelligent and independent
Successful in most areas of our lives
The issue is that diets taught us to follow someone else’s rules using shame and self-disgust as motivation…
But what we didn’t learn was how to listen to OUR own individual body.

FAQ’s
What is Intuitive Eating?
Intuitive Eating is a non-dieting approach to changing your eating habits. According to the National Eating Disorders Association, “Intuitive Eating is about trusting your body to make food choices that feel good for you, without judging yourself or the influence of diet culture.”
Do you follow and recommend any one diet to your clients?
Every BODY is different. We work with clients to find the specific foods that make them feel their best, but our in-house Registered Dietition does not create diets in this program. We truly believe that your body knows when it is hungry, when it is full and we will help you learn how to listen and love it again.
How much time should I plan to commit to the program?
We will help you eastablish healthy habits and create an efficient schedule that allows you to prioritize your health without wasting your time.
The self-paced study portion of the program will take 1-2 hours weekly, while the live coaching component will require you to be fully present for two 1-hour calls weekly. You will receive your call schedule upon enrollment.
How do you work with clients online?
We work with clients from around the world virtually. Online coaching is both convenient and flexible so that you can receive support around the clock and workout on your own schedule. We communicate via email, private members-only Facebook group and live coaching on Zoom.
What if I can't make it to the live coaching calls?
While we encourage you to be present for each call in order to get the most results from the program, we know life gets busy and circumstances come up that can prevent you from attending the weekly live calls.
The two calls are:
“Master Your Mind” with Master Coach, Amanda
“Nourish” with Registered Dietitian, Dana
You will also have a monthly live coaching call with Krista Ferrara, the owner of The Wellness Collective.
All calls will be recorded and uploaded to your priate members-only Facebook group where you can watch the replay at your leisure.
Will I receive 1:1 support?
This is not an offer for 1:1 coaching, but you’ll get intimate support from 3 expert coaches in a group format! Plus, you will also have the option to book a 1:1 call as needed with one of our coaches for an additional fee.
For all other 1:1 coaching inquiries, please email support@fitbodybykrista.com
Is Keri still involved in The Wellness Collective?
YES! While Keri Ford has sold TWC to Krista Ferrara, she is an active mentor, business partner and guest speaker.
You will also have access to 24 modules of self-study content where you can experience Keri’s coaching, videos, meditations and more.
Is this program tax deductible?
If you are a business owner, the answer in most cases is YES. The investment in this personal development and wellness coaching program are likely tax-deductible for you, but we suggest that you confirm with your tax advisor.
Can I finance the program?
Yes, we offer financing option that will be open at the time of enrollment.
Why should I join?
Intuitive Eating changed Keri’s life, and we think that harnessing the power of your intuition will change yours, too.

We’ll also continue to check in to offer ongoing advice and accountability toward your goals. Plus, you’ll expand your network and meet other women looking to make lifelong friendships.

More client feedback
“I had struggled for many years with the viscious cycle of dieting.
So far I am down 13 pounds and I have so much more energy!
My outlook on life is better than it’s ever been, AND I finally have food freedom – which I wasn‘t sure it would ever happen.
I owe it all to Keri and I’m so thankful!”
– Allison K.
“I had the privilege of working with Keri during two of the biggest transitions of my life: my wedding and during my first pregnancy.
In terms of results, I’ve lost nearly 5” inches and 14 pounds since being cleared for exercise, while still being able to maintain a healthy milk supply to continue to breastfeed my baby.
For the first time in my adult life, I finally understand food.”
– Karen A.
“I wasn’t sure that I was ready for a group coaching situation… but I decided to give it a shot and the amount of growth that I experienced in the group might even be more than what I experienced in the 1:1.
I am stronger. I have more energy. I am happier. I have a better relationship with my husband. I’m a better mother.
And chances are, if you’re here watching this and you’re trying to decide if this is the place for you, if this is the right move… it is.”
– Hannah K.
(*TWC previously referred to as Embody)
“If you’re thinking it’s just going to be “eat this”, “do these many sit-ups” is literally the farthest thing from that.
You will take such a deep look into every aspect of your life; your career, your relationships… and of course your mindset and your relationship with food with exercise.
Keri brings such a wonderful group of women together to go through this journey together, and to learn, grow and support each other was such a beautiful and empowering thing.
I’m so thankful for every woman in this group.
And, I would just say if you were considering joining this program, do it because what you will get out of it is much more what you will expect.”
– Audrey S.

“I leveled up into the version of myself that I wanted to become.”
What can I say but what a truly transformational program! When Keri shared this opportunity with me I was in a space in my life of practicing ways to level up into the version of myself that I wanted to become. I didn’t take my health journey as seriously as I should of and I jumped at the chance to work on this area of my life and I’m SO thankful God brought this to my doorstep.
The Wellness Collective program turned out to be the catalyst for deep change in several areas of my life. I came into the program expecting to find a solution to losing weight and getting healthy but found a way to live my WHOLE life free from the shackles of limiting beliefs and living by my past. As a result, I’ve been able to improve the way I view and interact with food and my body and build confidence on a MASSIVE scale. I struggled with my sleep and energy as well as staying stuck in patterns and routines in my life that weren’t serving me.
One of the biggest blessings from this program is the friendships I’ve formed with women who were open to connecting on a deeper level. The support is unreal in this group! Also, the deep journalling and inner work has proven to be exactly what I needed to step into the person God has always wanted me to be.
I’m beyond grateful to Keri and the whole Elevate family! This experience has allowed me to eliminate my negative thinking and grow my awareness around my feelings and thoughts and given me the calm knowing that comes from being an action taker (because confusion and procrastination were my middle names!). I am loving my body, my confidence and being the person I was destined to be. Working with Keri and her team has been one of the absolute delights of my life and I don’t say that lightly. She cares for you, offers honest advice with grace and stops you from shrinking back and all with real knowledge and love.
Don’t pass this up because you didn’t come across this by accident. It’s YOUR time to thrive!
