Tina was our guest speaker at our Hadassah Spring Event, and what she created was simple, powerful, and deeply memorable.
Her command of the subject matter and ability to convey the message was outstanding.
I highly recommend Tina to lead your workshop or event.

I am Safe to Give and Receive Love
“I came to Tina struggling to leave a painful relationship while still longing for real love.
She helped me heal, understand my needs, reconnect with myself, and open to love in a peaceful, grounded way.
Her guidance is gentle, wise, and deeply intuitive.
I now feel emotionally safe, clear, and able to receive love in ways I never could before.
I recommend her wholeheartedly.

I am Renewed
“Tina’s presentation opened my eyes in a way I didn’t expect.
The way she explained how appreciation grounds us and connects us to what actually matters has stayed with me ever since.
I left with a deeper awareness, a renewed sense of presence, and a genuine shift in how I move through my days.
Tina has a rare gift for helping people see meaning and beauty in places they’ve overlooked.
I am genuinely better for having experienced her work.

I Rewrote My Lonely Story
“Tina’s mentoring helped me finally understand what was standing between me and a solid, healthy relationship.
I felt stuck and was convinced I might be destined to be alone. Vibrant and in my 50s, I didn’t want to settle for that… or another bad relationship.
Within a few months, I became aware of the hidden fears and self-sabotaging beliefs that had been running the show.
I stopped repeating old patterns… and eventually met a really great guy.
I wouldn’t have seen past my old stories or allowed this kind of love in without her.

I am Excited for the Next Salon
"It was an amazing evening!
It was warm. Cozy. Safe space to share openly and honestly.
I’m so excited to be at the next one.

I Felt Seen and Connected
“I didn’t expect to feel so seen by women I had just met.
There is something quietly revolutionary about choosing to show up for yourself… truly show up… and Tina creates the exact space that makes that possible.
She guided us through one of the most layered, soul-level conversations I’ve had—chemistry, desire, the stories we tell ourselves—with a grace that comes from someone who has done her own deep work.
The vulnerability in that room was real. The bonds were instant. And the laughter… the kind that only happens when women finally feel safe enough to be honest.
The Badass Arts Salon gave me permission to take that time for myself… and it didn’t just stay in my mind. It stayed in my body.
Melissa H, salon attendee (2026)
It was a Beautiful Experience
"It was refreshing to have real, deep conversations without judgment.
A warm, inviting space to connect with like-minded women.
It was beautiful.
Jamie F., salon attendee 2026
I didn’t Expect That Connection and Acceptance
“As an introvert and someone who is only very social in business settings, I was completely out of my element approaching a group of women about more personal topics.
Tina created such an inclusive and laid back environment, I did not even notice myself breaking down my own walls and opening up to the group.
Tina facilitated the conversation and I was shocked at how natural it was. Her energy is so calming and her experience shines.
The time flew by and the entire evening was warm, welcoming, and filled with the most wonderful and insightful conversation. Tina has an unprecedented ability to attract the best people and connect women who are yearning for the support and acceptance they’ve always been afraid to ask for.
I would highly recommend everyone experience one of her events, especially if it’s something you normally would say ‘no’ to!

What it Means to
Love Like a Badass
I Got to the Heart of My Patterns
“What I found most valuable was that she truly ‘got me’ and was able to pinpoint the patterns and stresses I couldn’t clearly articulate.
Her insight was grounding and helped me untangle things I’d been stuck in, making space for a different kind of love.
If you have the opportunity to do her program, do it!

I can’t express how soulful our interaction and your message was tonight. I wanted to say, “it’s a real gift to share this journey together.”
I wanted you to know how awesome it is to be in this experience.

Not What I Expected…In the Best Way
“Tina Bernard runs amazing programs on finding your person.
She is engaging, insightful, and creates an experience that feels real and meaningful, not your typical advice seminar, and not what I expected, in the best way. Highly recommend.

I Cleared Space for My Love to Come In
“Dating was discouraging and hard.
Tina showed my blind spots I didn’t see, and I can happily say I am now engaged.
Investing in yourself is saying to the universe, “I am clearing space for my love to come into my life.”
Doing it with a someone who understands makes it so much easier.
