Emily Wingert, Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, Intuitive Eating Coach

Accessing the power of the Holy Spirit to ditch diet culture and passionately pursue freedom.

I asked Jesus to come into my life at a very young age and was baptized at age 8. My faith journey has been marked by many moments of growth in my knowledge of Jesus Christ and what it means to be a Christian and live like Jesus lived. I felt a call to ministry in my life from a young age and as I have grown, God has moved me towards ministering to women in my church as well as creating a coaching business to help women find freedom and walk in freedom. I believe in the one true God. I believe that he sent his son, Jesus, to die on the cross for the forgiveness of sin. I believe that we all sin and fall short of the glory of God and we all need Jesus. I believe the Bible is true and that it is the divine revelation from God. And I believe that if we choose Jesus and ask him to forgive our sins, we will go to Heaven when we die.

I believe that when we diet, we make our bodies and food an idol. I have experienced so much peace in my life as I have turned from diet culture and began to trust God’s good design for my body. I know that there is so much freedom to be found as women wrestle with being tired of trying to live up to the world’s standard for their bodies. I feel honored and privileged to be called to walk with others as they seek God’s will for their lives and discover freedom for themselves.

My background is in ministry and as a coach I know I have a very limited scope of practice but I am hopeful to be able to be an affordable stepping stone for people who need guidance and encouragement while also pointing them to others who are more qualified when their care is outside of my scope of practice.
