HELLO! I'M CHARYA

 Feminist Coach. Hypnotherapist. Rebel.

I didn't become a coach to help women shrink.

I became a coach to help women rise!

My Story

I’m a feminist coach, hypnotherapist, and a lifelong rebel against the systems that taught women to fear their bodies, doubt their voices, and apologise for their existence.

For over 27 years, I’ve supported women to break free from shame, silence, and self-judgement.
But my story didn’t start with coaching.
It started with survival.
And it started with me.

​

From a young age, I struggled deeply with my body.

Not just how it looked - but what I believed it meant about me. I battled eating disorders, body hatred, and the endless belief that if I could just be thinner, smaller, more 'acceptable,' then maybe… I’d finally feel okay.

Of course, that moment never came. Because it was never really about my body.

What I came to realise - painfully and slowly - was that the shame I carried didn’t originate inside me.
It was planted there.

By a culture that profits from women’s insecurities.
By systems that want women quiet, distracted, and busy 'fixing' themselves.

The more I judged my body, the more I disconnected from my power.
And that, I came to understand, is the point.

Patriarchy teaches us to hate ourselves so we’ll never have the time, energy, or self-belief to rise.

 

The Political Awakening:

I’ve been involved in the women’s movement since I was a teenager. I’ve marched in the streets, worked in women’s centres, supported refuges, and written for feminist publications. I’ve seen - and felt - what happens when women gather, speak, and stop apologising.

My activism has always been about power:
Who has it. Who doesn’t. And how we get it back.

And over time, I realised that one of the most insidious ways patriarchy steals power from women is through their relationship with their bodies. When we spend our lives obsessing over our weight, appearance, or perceived flaws - we aren’t just wasting time. We’re giving away our energy. Our voice. Our fight. And I couldn’t ignore that any longer.

​

The Professional Path:

That realisation led me to become a coach and hypnotherapist - not just to help women 'feel better,' but to help them wake up.

Over the past 27+ years, I’ve worked with hundreds of women - many of whom felt broken, ashamed, and stuck in the loop of self-sabotage and self-criticism.

Through a powerful fusion of deep coaching and subconscious hypnosis, I’ve helped them peel back the layers of conditioning and reconnect to who they were before the world told them to shrink.

I’ve created group programs, led workshops, supported eating disorder recovery, and witnessed what happens when women finally stop fighting their bodies and start reclaiming their power.

​

Where I Am Now:

I’m 78 years old. I’m still working. And I have zero intention of stopping. Because now more than ever, women need spaces to heal  - but also to rise.

I created this current body of work for women who are ready to go beyond 'body positivity'.
Who don’t just want to feel better - they want to feel free.

Women who are tired of apologising. Tired of shrinking. Tired of silence.

This isn’t about self-love slogans or surface-level coaching. This is about liberation - personal and political.
It’s about reclaiming your energy from the systems that stole it. It’s about telling the truth about where the shame came from - and creating a new relationship with yourself that’s rooted in power, not perfection.

 

What I Offer Today:

My work now includes:

  • Self-guided workbooks and courses that help you unlearn body shame and rebuild confidence

  • Hypnosis bundles that rewire your internal beliefs at the root

  • Private Power Reclamation - a 12-week feminist coaching experience delivered via email

  • And 1:1 deep dive coaching + hypnosis sessions for women ready for full-spectrum transformation

 

Final Words:

If you’re here, it means something inside you is stirring. Maybe you’re tired of feeling like your self-worth is a full-time job. Maybe you’re sick of knowing better, but still feeling stuck. Maybe you’re ready to speak more boldly, live more fully, and take up space - without shame.

I see you. I get it. And I’ve lived it.

Let’s do this differently.
Let’s do this together.
