| Last weekend I went to a bachelorette party of a lady I don’t know very well, with 11 other women – most of whom I’d never met. I was told very little on my invitation, and when I RSVP’d yes, the follow-up text said we were going to be learning a burlesque dance and to wear leggings and a top you felt sexy in! Um . . . ok! So I did. I showed up at this party which happened to take place at a yoga studio, in my leggings and super sexy bra top. And I learned a sultry, flowy, very sensual routine. We danced our butts off! We swayed our hips. Moved to the music. And giggled when our instructor yelled “Make love to the wall!” THEN to top it off? We split into partners and performed for each other. I gave my new friend Tina a very sultry dance. 🤣 But you see, I wasn’t always this confident or this embodied. (I talk all about my journey and how I shifted my inner confidence in my podcast this week – listen here.) |
Me a year ago? I was still searching for purpose.
Still asking big questions like: How do I make money doing something I actually love? How do I feel like like the REAL me?
A year and a half ago, I did a past-life regression hypnosis session looking for answers to these questions (more about that HERE!), and the message that came through was:
“Use your voice.”
I didn’t know what that meant yet, but eventually I realized I was supposed to start a podcast.
. . . I wasn’t sure about what yet. This was BEFORE I had a business. Before I had a “thing” to sell.
I just… started talking. Sharing. Trusting something would click eventually.
Meanwhile, I was knee-deep in self-doubt. I naturally stepped into the coaching world and kept getting feedback that I would be good in this space, but I was scared.
I’d see other women in the coaching world absolutely killing it—making bank, looking hot, radiating confidence, launching polished offers like it was nothing, bragging about how many people were in their programs and how they were scaling fast.
And there I was… feeling like an imposter and unsure and still a little broken from my past and trauma.
I thought that in order to achieve the things I was looking for (abundance, confidence, self-assurance) I had to prove myself. That unless I had a revolutionary method or a step-by-step system or the perfect 3-tier offer suite… no one would take me seriously.
I didn’t understand yet that me, just being me—sharing my voice, my story, my lens on life—was the thing.
I was also FREAKING OUT about what people would think.
You see, I’d started dressing in a way that actually felt like me.
I was bolder. Sexier. More expressive. And loud!
But growing up in a conservative, patriarchal culture where modesty = virtue, I was making waves without trying to. Just existing in my own skin was “too much.”
I faced a whole year of criticism and being ostracized at family functions from a certain family member.
Another family member gossiped—based on a green dress I wore in a social media post—that maybe I was on OnlyFans, and decided she didn’t want her teenage boys around me, just in case I showed up to breakfast without a bra.
(Wondering how I navigated all this? I talk about it and teach you how to ditch the critics and follow your own fire FEARLESSLY in my Fearless Fashion Workshop HERE!)
Some friends simply… faded away.
So no. If you had asked me a year ago then whether I could imagine:
- Creating an offer in one hour without second-guessing it
- Holding space for women in person, without scripting it all out
- Centering the whole experience around sensuality, lingerie, and loving our bodies
- Posting about it publicly—on social media, where all my nosy ex-church friends and family could see
- And most terrifying of all: personally messaging women I felt called to invite, sharing the price boldly, and standing my ground around my value…
I would’ve WANTED to believe it, but I wouldn’t have.
But that’s exactly what I did.
And here’s the part I want you to know:
It wasn’t effortless.
Yes, it was easier than it used to be.
I didn’t spiral. I didn’t over-plan. I didn’t spend three weeks obsessing over whether it was “perfect.”
But I still had to stretch. I had to choose to believe in what I was offering—AKA I had to choose to believe in ME.
I had to ask women to come. And I had to trust that the ones meant for it would feel the energy behind my ask—and say yes. And they did!
I filled every slot for my VIP Lingerie Day not because I’m fearless, but because I’ve done the inner work to move with the fear.
I’ve trained my nervous system to recognize the difference between danger and discomfort.
I’ve learned to feel the flutter in my chest and still press send.
That is the real work. And it’s the real work I do when it comes to style and sensuality.
That is why it feels easy now—not because I never doubt, but because I don’t stay in the doubt.
I know who I am. I know what I bring. And I know the world needs it.
Just like it needs what YOU bring.
Because when a woman says to me, “Can you help me find cute clothes for vacation?”
I know what she’s really saying is: “Can you help me feel good in my own skin again?”
And the answer is yes. It’s always yes.
So if you’re feeling like everyone else has it all figured out—while you’re just over here trying to feel like you can confidently show up to that social function confident in your outfit—I see you.
If you’re feeling frumpy, nervous, unsure, or overwhelmed…
I see you! And it’s ok. You’re just being invited to come back home to yourself.
And I promise: it gets easier.
Getting dressed gets easier.
Saying what you want gets easier.
Feeling sexy with saggy boobs and a soft belly and wrinkles gets easier.
Letting it all be enough gets easier.
…Because when you stop trying to perform or prove,
and you start rooting into you—your body, your truth, your joy—
It all starts to flow.
This is why I do what I do.
Not just to teach you how to look hot or feel confident.
Not even just to help you with your closet (though I love that part too).
What I really offer is perspective and permission.
And the kind of space where you get to remember who you are.
When I say, “You’re beautiful,” I mean it. Not as a platitude or as a compliment.
But as a reflection! Because I see you.
Like—really see you. The power, the fire, the brilliance.
And sometimes you just need someone to hold up the mirror until you see it too.
So yes, I’ll help you find cute clothes.
Yes, I’ll help you feel good in your skin again.
But more than anything, I’ll help you come home to you.
Because that’s the most magnetic, radiant, unforgettable version of you there is.
