About Angela
I care about the
whole person.
I am Angela Tobe Estrada Tripp, a Certified Life Coach and the founder of Body By Design. I work with people who are ready to feel like themselves again — and I do not believe that happens from the outside alone.
Body contouring, post-surgical lymphatic drainage and life coaching look like three different businesses. In my studio they are one conversation. What you see in the mirror, how your body feels while it heals, and what you hear from yourself when nobody else is talking.

My story
I came to this work because I watched how much of a person’s confidence is decided by small, daily things — how they stand, how they speak, whether they believe the compliment they were just given.
Body contouring gives someone a change they can see, which is powerful and immediate. Coaching gives them the language and the habits to keep it. I have built Body By Design so a client never has to choose between the two, or explain to two different providers why they care about both.
What this looks like in practice
Most clients begin with one conversation and one small, specific change. If you want to know how this has worked for other people, that is a good thing to ask at your consultation — Angela will tell you what she can, and she keeps her clients’ stories private.
What I believe
about this work
Four things that shape every consultation, every plan and every session.
The outside and the inside are one thing
A contouring plan that changes your shape without touching how you feel about yourself is only half the work. The coaching is not an upsell; it is the other half.
No pressure, ever
You will never be talked into a package in a consultation. Angela would rather send you home to think than sell you something you are unsure about.
Slow is fine
Both the body work and the coaching are paced to real life — jobs, kids, budgets, bad weeks. Plans that ignore those do not hold.
Honest, not flattering
If something will not give you what you want, you will hear it plainly. Warmth and honesty are not opposites.

The consultation is free and there is nothing to decide on the call. It is simply a chance to see whether I am the right person to help you with this.
