Nicole Black is a native of Southern California, she currently resides in Santa Barbara with her daughter and is the co-founder and former CEO of Renaud’s Patisserie & Bistro. When she isn’t working to promote her story of getting healthy from the inside out, she enjoys travel, yoga, Pilates, and chasing dragonflies. Part of her success story is losing over one hundred pounds while working at a French bakery. In her book, Fat Shame: Ditch the Shame, Get Confident, and Claim the Life You Deserve, Nicole shares her own journey with yo-yo dieting and going from obese to thin, from thin to obese, and finally, from obese to healthy. She discovered that even at a size four, she didn’t feel thin or beautiful on the inside. She set out to change that, and now she shows you how you can too.
