Michael C. Bryan and Jennifer Ho are two professional life coaches who hate being called life coaches. On Stripped, they’ll get down and dirty about how they made it through incest, depression, anxiety, sexual abuse, self-harm, sexual trauma, financial ruin, and gender madness to become the fabulously outrageous, successful and living large New Yorkers they are today. You know…light topics like that. You’re not in Kansas anymore, Dorothy. The world has changed and Michael and Jennifer are leading the charge by stripping away all the bullshit and facades we’ve been living behind and letting it all hang out. And we do mean all.

Thank you

The two styles of coaching give different aspects to issues. Both hosts give personal experiences to the issue, with humor and insight. Two sides of the same coin.
