Andrea Amador is best known as The Juicy Woman. Her company, The Juicy Woman, is the embodiment and the spirit of Andrea’s passion to empower 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. Her experience as an entrepreneur began in 1985 when she left college abruptly to step into the family business and help her beloved father out of a jam. For 18 1/2 years, together with her 80 year old Nana, she operated a $10.5M real estate empire. In 2004 after she negotiated the sale of the property and made the deal, her father who promised her 49% of the proceeds, ran off with the money, leaving her with a mountain of debt, a bellyful of hateful hurt and a ton of regret. As a gal who has struggled with emotional eating and obsessed with hating her body for nearly 35 years, she couldn't stop eating and gained 35 pounds. Feeling the sting of the betrayal, her voracious appetite was out of control, until one day she made a small change that stopped the weight gain dead in its tracks. Today she is a die hard supporter of non diet weight control and devotes her time to teaching women how to bounce back from stress using energy coaching techniques. Andrea is passionate about turning her mess into her message. As an abuse survivor and professional certified empowerment coach, speaker and body image/self esteem expert, Andrea is a rare blend of raw experience and professional training which gives her the edge in helping women who struggle with body image and/or abuse issues. As a Master Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming and Ericksonian Hypnosis, Andrea is dedicated to creating self esteem building products and programs designed to empower women and kids. By sharing her expertise and experience she helps women who are emotional eaters make peace with food, friends with their body and yummy up their lives. She is the proud author of her first book, “Lovin’ the Skin You’re In: The Juicy Woman’s Guide to Making Peace with Food and Friends with Your Body.” And yes, on most days Andrea really does love the skin she’s in.
