Good Girl Gone Goddess

I’m Maren, the girl who used to stand in front of her closet hating everything she owned and wondering why other women looked so beautiful and were out having fun, sexy lives while she sat at home, feeling a little ugly and a little blah.

For the first 35 years of my life, I played the “good girl” game. I dressed ok, but I was held back by my desire to be “appropriate,” seen as the girl who was doing everything right, and trying to flatter my body that I was pretty unhappy with. I felt anxious about going to social events and frustrated that other ladies seemed to be so happy and beautiful. I hid myself behind my kids in photos, trying to get the right angle. I overspent and bought too many low quality clothes because I could never find the “right thing.”

By my late twenties, I found myself in a broken marriage, disconnected from my body, cut off from my truth, and aching for more. More pleasure. More power. More me. That awakening sent me on a path of unlearning everything I was taught about womanhood, and remembering who I really am: a sovereign, sensual, radiant woman with nothing to prove and everything to feel.

That’s why I do what I do now. As a style and sensuality coach, I help women love and accept their bodies, rewrite old fears and beliefs about how they’re allowed to dress, and get dressed like they love it. Style isn’t about trends or body types. It’s self-expression, self-celebration, and soul. And sensuality isn’t about being sexy for someone else. It’s about being deeply, deliciously connected to your own life force.

I work with women who are ready to stop putting themselves second and start living (and dressing!) as the goddess who says with a wink and a hairflip, “Yes I am the most beautiful thing to ever walk this planet, and aren’t you lucky to have met me.”

If that’s you? I’m so glad you’re here. You can read my full story [here]—or just make yourself at home, bra optional!
