COACH + MAKEUP ARTIST + COHOST

For many years I have had the privilege in assisting people to feel beautiful on the outside, and now through coaching, I am grateful to be able to guide them in discovering their inner beauty as well. Along with my cohost and best friend, I also have the opportunity to support women and mothers in their personal growth journey on our weekly Eff It Madres podcast.

ROMI MARIE

Hi, I'm Romi!

Through my history as a public figure, I have openly shared my own identity and sexuality over the years which has given me a platform to assist others. I feel very fortunate to help individuals struggling with their sexual identities as well as families of queer youth navigate the path to understanding, acceptance, and unconditional love. Together, we create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your identity, embrace your true authentic self, and foster stronger connections with your loved ones. Through personalized coaching and guidance, I will give you tools to navigate the complexities of sexual orientation and self identity with confidence and resilience. 

Wherever you are on your journey of faith, I am willing and able to initiate discussions.

IDENTITY COACH

BONITA BRIDES + FREELANCE

During the early 2000’s, I graduated from MUD makeup school in Burbank, California. I have since worked for Mac Cosmetics, Benefit, and Kitson, all while practicing beauty makeup for various projects such as editorial photography, runway, television, film, and personal styling. For the past 5 years, I have been employed by Bonita Brides in Austin, Texas and I am proud to be a member of a strong, Latina-owned makeup team, where we provide services to numerous weddings and events, all while catering to individuals of all ethnicities. Makeup has always been a passion of mine, as it allows people to creatively reinvent and express themselves in an enjoyable way.

I am currently open for freelance makeup work.

THE EFF IT MADRES

My best friend, and fellow life coach, Carla Zuniga and I created a podcast focused on interviewing madres (moms) who have had, are in the midst of (like us!), or want to have those big, life-shifting "EFF IT' moments that can change the trajectory of their lives. and that of their families. We, The EFF IT Madres are two Latina “Mompreneurs” whose goal is to create a community of madres supporting madres through these “EFF IT” moments, so that other madres out there can be empowered to take that first step towards growth and change. Join us every Monday to hear an inspiring story by an incredible madre.

  • "I will forever be grateful for my time with Romi. She will never truly know the impact she has had on my life and my families life. I highly recommend everyone and anyone to invest in themselves. Her open mindedness raw honesty and compassion shine through in every session.  Romi has taught me how to fight for myself she has been there through the good, bad and ugly sessions without judgement she provides a true safe space to let your walls down.  I was truly broken when I came into coaching over my sessions she has helped me to piece together my broken parts and is helping me to rebuild even stronger.

    B | Australia

  • "I can’t wait for my next session with Romi. Her compassion & enthusiasm is infectious, and she’s able to create a welcoming, fun & honestly sacred environment where you can step back from your life before stepping boldly back in. You get the sense that because she’s either been where you are or can empathically relate, you can be radically honest with her, and thus yourself. Working with Romi is both a huge relief & the beginning of a new relationship with yourself — with the identities that are no longer serving you & the ones you are choosing to embrace.”
