Andrea Amador is a woman who puts her heart and soul into everything she does. To define her as passionate is a gross understatement. She’s a fireball, motivated by her mission to teach and empower women to overcome the adversity in their lives. She believes that it is only by the act of forgiving and letting go of the haunts and hurts of our past that we can truly be free to embrace our spirit, love ourself more completely, and spend time focusing on making our mark in the world. A devoted student to the field of personal growth, Andrea was first introduced to the world of esoteric learning and human potential by her beloved father, Frank when she was 11 years old. He brought her to a Silva Mind Control course and that began a lifetime love affair with learning that Andrea still continues to nurture today. No stranger to adversity, Andrea is a true survivor who has weathered many storms in her life. Sexually abused as a child of 5 up through her late teens, Andrea has abused food to heal the hurts. Attempting to deal with her emotional burdens, she sought out therapy for 18 years. Despite her years of wanting to heal, she was not ready to forgive and let go of her victimization. She remained a very angry, bitter and resentful person. She left college prematurely due to being obligated to run the family Real Estate business with her 80 year old grandmother, known lovingly as Nana. The two women formed a powerful bond and Nana quickly became Andrea’s role model. Andrea learned her lessons and emerged a powerful business woman through trial by fire. Consistently using food to cope with her stress, Andrea has been overweight for the majority of her life. A self declared emotional eater, At 212 pounds, she joined Weight Watchers in the hope of losing weight after the birth of her first child. That led to years of yo-yoing up and down the scales losing and regaining as much as 78 pounds. In 2000, she was first introduced to the technology of Neuro Linguistic Programming. Disgusted with her life and unable to see her many blessings, she embarked on a 30 day self help audio program called Personal Power facilitated by Anthony Robbins. That led to quantum leaps for her over the 30 day period and a decision to pursue the professional training as a Certified Neuro Linguistic Programming Practitioner. Today in 2007, she is a Double Master Practitioner of NLP and Ericksonian Hypnosis. She still continues to take advanced trainings in NLP in anticipation of becoming a Certified NLP trainer. In 2004, after retiring from Real Estate, she began a Coaching Certification Program to be able to professionally coach other women who struggled with eating issues, One day during a class demo in an NLP training, she experienced a panic attack that instantly reassociated her back to painful memories of her past abuse. A classmate of hers offered to help to calm her by teachng her a technique called Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT. EFT would later become the cornerstone of Andrea’s work with women. She credits EFT with doing for her what 18 years of therapy failed to do. Within minutes, Andrea’s sobbing and terror was replaced by calmness and an ability to forgive and let go of the paralyzing memories of her past. Today Andrea is a Certified Energy Coach, professionally trained to use EFT as well as a wide variety of other energy coaching processes to assist women to overcome the pain and adversity in their lives due to having a negative body image. In August of 2006, while in a Product Creation group to refine a teleclass program she created, called The Craving Zapping Program (a coaching program for women using EFT to eliminate cravings) , Andrea met a man named Doc Frost. Doc was a retired therapist who had a history of succeeding in curing many women of eating disorders for over 25 years. The two decided to collaborate their efforts and combine their resources, Doc taught Andrea about a process called Intuitive Eating, a natural non diet weight loss eating method based on listening to the body’s hunger and eliminating the diet mentality completely. Still on her own weight loss journey, In August of 2006, Andrea embarked on Intuitive Eating in an effort to test it out before sharing it with her clients Andrea set aside her energy coaching tools that had already proven effective in eliminating cravings in order to learn the process of Intuitive Eating. Over the next 10 months, Andrea gained 25 pounds using the process. Noticing various behavioral changes in her eating and a newfound descrimination toward all foods, Andrea finally realized that this powerful process needed a kick in the pants that could only come from energy coaching. Newly inspired by the freedom and peace that came with the intuitive eating, Andrea decided to teach it to other women with the addition of energy coaching to her clients. Using a combination of the Intuitive Eating with the energy coaching, her clients have reported noticing quick changes not only in behavior but also in actual weight loss. Andrea knew that she had a hit on her hands with the combination of Intuitive Eating and energy coaching. Today Andrea has several live and teleclass group coaching programs and products for women who are emotional eaters, ready to give up dieting. Drawing upon her extensive professional training in NLP, Hypnosis, and Emotional Freedom Technique and energy coaching, she shares her life experience and teaches women how to lose weight without dieting, reclaim their personal power and make peace with all foods. Her company, The Juicy Woman is the embodiment and the spirit of Andrea’s passion to serve other women and to show them that they too can overcome any obstacle, fear, pain and emotional block to emerge free to soar like an eagle and achieve any goal.
