In Progress

Rande Moss is an Eating Psychology Coach, Kundalini yoga teacher, founder of Free Spirit Academy and author of The Eat to Feel Good "Diet". She spent most of her life battling binge eating disorder and orthorexia. Her quest to heal brought her to the extreme of taking on a 90-day juice fast. When the "self-improvement" path didn't lead to freedom, she gave it all up for self-love and self-expression. She now guides women from painful relationships with food and their bodies to lightness and liberation.
