Every successful person has an origin story. Origin stories are a foundation for who you are and what you do. They are rarely all victories without some kind of knock-down defeat int here somewhere. I wanted to finally share my story. Why? Because when we have the courage to tell our own story, we give permission to others to explore and do the same. I want to give you that permission.

You can bust out of any confidence rut when you have clarity on which roadblock to move! Find out how one woman did it!


Amy is a professional brand photographer who was stuck in the fog of the pandemic, the pressures of being a full-time entrepreneur, and the overwhelm of parenting from an intentional space. When she came to me, she didn't think changing the way she saw herself in the mirror in the Hue and Style® way would be the way to more progress, ease, and happiness in every part of her life. But it was.


Since adding and living a Hue and Style® image, personal development and mindset growth lifestyle, she has:

  • found a new flow in her creative business
  • developed more visibility for her ideal clients
  • improved her outlook toward her marriage and parenting her "littles", and
  • increased her self-love adding habits that nurture her wellness (and actually sticking with them).

And transformed her personal style and presence to show for it all!


❝Anytime I’ve had something hard come up, within what feels like a split second, I have a tool or an answer or something in me to figure it out and that feels amazing! I’m not floundering around for days or weeks and wishy-washy trying to figure things out. And sometimes I’m an overthinker... but I feel like I have so many tools and learned so many things about myself in this that I can answer anything for myself and feel so confident in my choices and decisions immediately.❞ ~Amy Z.


That's the power of learning what’s right for you be it in your closet or in your life. Hue and Style® combine them both.

Confidence Shift - Journey To Adaptable Confidence: From Hidden To Happy
play

01/18/23 • 50 min

WHEN YOU SHIFT HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF, YOU CAN ADAPT TO ANYTHING WITH CONFIDENCE!

Amanda is a growing real estate professional who knows what you can build in your life when you have a daily confidence-building habit that renews your courage and motivation. She came to me 7 years ago after switching careers and needed an image presence that would set her apart from others in the highly-competitive real estate field. She nailed my teachings and has used Hue and Style®'s repeatable process of communicating her value and authenticity ever since. She's used her learned confidence skills to adapt through changing times - not letting the rampant self-doubt of the pandemic days take hold. Not only has her business grown, so has her self-love, fulfillment, and joy!


In this candid and casual chat, Amanda shares:

  • The priceless asset of investing in "seeing herself differently" (first in the mirror, then in life) that became a foundation for her current success.
  • Why she can feel completely "competitionless" even in an industry with so much competition.
  • How she uses her Hue and Style® personal brand image definition and self-expression like a billboard that attracts her ideal clients, and
  • Why women need to stop dressing worried about "fashion" and start using this daily habit to change how they feel about themselves, their relevance and life direction.

I used to listen to all the fashion advice talking heads about the latest and the greatest saying if you wear "this or that," you'll feel good. But it doesn't matter how much you do that. If you don't fix the inside, the outside stuff not going to make it work.❞ ~ Amanda


This one's all about the magic that happens over time when you choose yourself. She will help you see what's possible for your next season of success!


If Amanda's story has moved you, discover your next steps. My first sessions are FREE and for those ready and excited to harness the power to show up. I work with women locally and globally. That may be you. See other Confidence Shift Conversations of women just like you here: https://www.hueandstyle.com/breakthrough-interviews

In this bonus episode and to celebrate the finish of Season 1 of the Confidence Shift Podcast, I invite my special guest, Delaina Parker, to join my Confidence Shift Conversations.


We dove into how she used her Hue and Style image confidence journey with me to first see herself differently, and then to crush the self-doubt villains that were crippling every part of her life. She uncovered how she rediscovered her gifts and passion as an educator and is building a growing business helping families learn the keys to confidence + connection.


Delaina shared:

  • How she went from overwhelmed, stressed-out, “angry, yelling mom,” convinced she was doing everything wrong raising her kids to a confident, connected, purpose-driven woman on a mission to change the confidence of moms and kids everywhere.
  • Why the most impactful way to build your kids confidence skills is to lead by example, and embrace a confidence journey centered on shifting your own mindset, developing resiliency and learning to trust yourself.
  • How a chance meeting with Michele (and her Hue and Style process) became the catalyst to a breakthrough confidence journey that reignited her self-love, her marriage, her parenting outlook and built a business she loves. Find her at Confident+Connected Kids. (confidentandconnectedkids.com)
  • Key elements you need to get in place first before they begin worrying about how to raise confident kids even if you don’t know how your confidence is connected to your kids’ and have no idea where to start getting it right.

This was an interview and seminar all in one with a chance for you to ask two confidence coaches your burning questions.

Confidence Shift - Dress For More Confidence And Productivity
play

03/31/20 • 34 min

This episode was actually a live broadcast that goes down as the one I am MOST proud of.⁣

⁣My intention was to share how to be more productive and confident starting with how you get dressed. It turned into something more.⁣

⁣It turned emotional - not for myself but for hope for you - about who you are becoming, what potential you have to create greatness and the reach you can have to use yourself for good when you start by honouring yourself first.⁣

⁣My eyes may have gotten a little wet. They may have leaked a little on camera. I’m ok with that. “In tears, there’s truth” another MCG’ism. I just shared mine.⁣

I shared why dressing is more than pieces and how to make dressing an exercise in boosting self-acceptance and momentum for productive, meaningful work (no matter the times we’re in).

Harpreet is an award-winning professional real estate professional who despite her career excellence and achievements experienced a season of self-doubt. When she came to me, she wanted to snap out of a rut and get back to giving her clients her best and being the best example of a woman's confidence for her daughter.

That was years ago.

Since adding and living a Hue and Style® image, personal development and mindset growth lifestyle, she has created:

  • wider-reaching business connections leading to new opportunities
  • more visibility and impact in her community
  • deeper connection with her personal relationships, and
  • lasting, true love of herself.

This interview celebrates the one-year release anniversary of my Amazon Best-seller, Show Up Confident. Harpreet is a featured story in Chapter 6 of the book and has always been an enthusiastic and vocal "Champion" of my philosophy to "Dress In Confidence" that permanently crushes aimless shopping, style comparison and the crippling fashion-only myths replacing all of that with magnetic self-belief and captivating self-presentation that fuels success.
