Body Compassion Collective
You've spent years trying to discipline
your way into self-love.
What if the only thing you need to stop is the performance?
with Marla Mervis Hartmann
THE PROBLEM ISN'T YOUR BODY
It's how you've been taught to treat it.
Here's what women report after
Body Compassion Collective:
The number on the scale stops dictating their day.
They step on the scale and the number is just information, not a verdict on their worth or what they're "allowed" to eat.
Shame around food dissolves.
They eat a cookie at a party and enjoy it for 30 seconds without
the internal dialogue of "I've been so bad today" or "the diet starts tomorrow."
They slow down enough to actually choose.
Instead of eating so quickly they regret it
afterward, they have time to decide if what they're eating is actually what they want.
They stop performing confidence and start living in their body.
They have sex with the lights on. They stop avoiding mirrors.
They show up fully in their life instead of waiting to be "ready"
when they hit a certain weight.
The work extends beyond food.
Compassion doesn't just change how they eat — it changes
how they show up in their relationships, their work, their life.
The problem isn't your body. It isn't your willpower. It isn't that you lack discipline.
The problem is that you've been taught to treat your body like an enemy that needs to be controlled, instead of a home you get to live in.
And when you approach your body with shame, discipline, and punishment, your body responds the only way it knows how: by fighting back.
Body Compassion Collective teaches you a different way. Not another diet. Not another protocol. A way to move from shame to compassion, from control to trust, from performing to actually living in your body.
This isn't about learning to love your body someday when it looks different. This is about learning to be in your body now, exactly as it is, and discovering that the moment you stop fighting it, everything shifts.
Small, compassionate actions — not willpower or discipline — are what actually change your relationship with food, with your body, with yourself.
Self-Compassion doesn't mean you are Giving up.
It means you are giving up binge-eating, body shaming, emotional eating and negative self-talk.
Inside Body Compassion Collective, you'll learn:
BCC is different from other solutions. It doesn’t focus on getting your body to a certain weight so you can feel confidence. It uses 3 powerful tools that will change how you feel about yourself and how you take care of yourself. If you commit to these tools, It will change your behaviors with food and dramatically increase levels of joy.
COMPASSION
The Compassion Reset — A 3-minute somatic practice that stops shame spirals before they take you under. No journaling, no affirmations. Just your body, your breath, and the return to center. You'll learn how to recognize when shame is hijacking your food choices and how to regulate it in real time.
CONFIDENCE
The Confidence Calibration — Confidence isn't something you build by losing weight. It's something you reclaim by stopping the performance. You'll learn how to stand in your body as it is right now, not as a "work in progress," but as a woman who takes up space, speaks her truth, and stops apologizing for existing.
CURIOSITY
The Curiosity Activation — Judgment keeps you stuck. Curiosity sets you free. You'll learn how to get curious about your patterns without collapsing into shame: Why do I reach for food when I'm not hungry? What am I actually trying to soothe? What would it feel like to not need to fix this?
"For the first time in my life, after years of on and off therapy, we got to the roots of the disorders rather than simply focusing on 'fixing' behaviours. I now feel I understand myself much better and learned that self compassion is always the answer."
- Client Elena
MEET MARLA
For years, I did everything "right": over-exercising, under-eating, restricting, controlling. I thought if I could just discipline my body into submission, I'd finally feel at peace.
One day I stood on the scale and saw the lowest number I'd ever seen. I was the thinnest I'd ever
been. And I was miserable.
Being thin was never going to make me happy. The problem wasn't my body — it was the performance. The performance of discipline, of control, of "having it all together."
When I stopped performing, everything shifted. Not because I "fixed" myself, but because I
finally gave myself permission to stop trying to.
Now I teach other women how to do the same. I don't fix you. I don't save you. I show you where
you've been giving your power away, and I teach you how to take it back.
The body you've been fighting? She's been waiting for you to come home.
WHO THIS IS FOR?
Body Compassion Collective is for you if you're done white-knuckling your food, done performing discipline, done waiting to "be ready." If you're willing to take full responsibility for your healing and you're resourced enough (emotionally, financially, energetically) to do this work without needing me to prove it works first.
This is not for you if you're looking for a weight-loss program (this isn't that), if you're expecting me to fix you while you stay passive, if you're in active crisis or have a diagnosed eating disorder that requires
clinical support (please get that first — I'll be here when you're ready), or if you're still hoping that finding the "right" method means you won't have to do the emotional work.
If you're still reading, you're ready.

IS BODY COMPASSION COLLECTIVE FOR ME?
This program is for you if you're ready to stop white-knuckling your food, stop performing
discipline, and stop waiting to "be ready." Body Compassion Collective is for you if you want to
learn how to move from shame to compassion, from control to trust, from fighting your body to
actually living in it.
I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING. WHY WOULD THIS BE DIFFERENT?
Because you've been treating this like a food problem or a willpower problem when it's actually
a compassion problem. Once you learn how to approach your body with compassion instead of
control, small doable actions replace willpower, trust replaces discipline, and your body stops
fighting back.
WILL I LOSE WEIGHT?
This isn't a weight-loss program. This program teaches you how to stop fighting your body and
start listening to it. When you do that, your body re-calibrates and finds its natural weight. But
we're not chasing a number. We're reclaiming presence. If weight loss happens, it's a byproduct,
not the goal.
I HAVE AN EATING DISORDER. IS THIS PROGRAM FOR ME?
If you're in active crisis or have a diagnosed eating disorder, I recommend working with a
licensed eating disorder specialist first. This program is designed for women who are ready to do
deep emotional work around their relationship with food and their body, and that requires a
foundation of clinical support if you're still in crisis. I'll be here when you're ready.
WHAT IS THE REFUND POLICY?
All sales are final. We believe that once you say yes to an experience, the transformation begins,
and we want you 100% committed. If you're not sure, take your time. This program isn't going
anywhere.
HOW LONG DO I HAVE ACCESS?
You have lifetime access to all modules, guides, and bonuses. Move at your own pace. There's no
expiration date.
Another year of trying won't change anything.
Waiting until you "feel ready" just means more time performing.
Losing 10 pounds has never been the permission slip you needed to stop hating yourself.
The body you've been fighting has been waiting for you to stop performing and start reclaiming.
