Self(ish) Confidence

I have always been the type of person to doubt my style. I thought I lacked the skills to properly dress myself but it turns out I was just learning to find myself and what I felt great wearing.
Today we're chatting with Amanda Hanson from Simply Stylish to find confidence in who you are and how you dress. She uses her passion and experience to teach you how to radically love and accept who you are, through discovering and expressing your personal style. Today, she's helping us feel more confident in our own skin, our personal closets and in how we want to show up in the world.
Amanda (she/her) is a mom of two that always has a “healthy” stock of bacon and coffee in her kitchen. She might also have a slight addiction to red lipstick.
She uses her degree in Psychology, Masters in Education and certification in Feminist Coaching Theory to break down patriarchal norms in order to have awareness of barriers, such as misogyny, the patriarchy, ableism, diet culture & anti-fat bias, in order to embrace & express yourself confidently in your clothes.
Over the past 5 years as a Style Coach, Amanda has helped 100’s of people build an intentional and sustainable wardrobe that supports how they want to feel, that fits the current body they are in and that supports all aspects of their life.

Today I'm chatting with Jacy Lawler, a fiery teacher, podcaster, course designer and strong Enneagram 8 ready to take over the world. We sat down to unravel the threads of self-confidence and the boldness required to step out of the shadows of societal norms. Our conversation navigates Jacy's transition from a people-pleaser to a fearless podcast host, offering up her story as a beacon for those yearning to embrace their true selves. Her candid recount of the challenges she faced reminds us all that the journey to authenticity is not only possible but imperative.
The digital realm is a double-edged sword, where vulnerability can both connect and expose us. I get real about the delicate balance of sharing personal moments online, with the wisdom to process privately before broadcasting our lives to the world. This episode peels back the curtain on the realities of running a membership community as a business owner, embracing the human design concept of projectors, and how it's okay to adjust life's volume to match our own rhythm. It's about finding the sweet spot where personal energy meets professional commitment, and how my pivot into content strategy and course design became a testament to working with, not against, my natural inclinations.

Do you ever feel like you're always putting everyone else first? I can relate. On the Confidence Corner this week, I'm sharing my personal journey of self-discovery that happened while attending the EmpowerHer Life event. I'll let you in on how I learned to prioritize myself, even as a natural nurturer. And believe me, it wasn't easy, but it was a stepping stone to gaining the confidence I needed. Plus, I've got a fascinating story about how breathwork, which I initially resisted, played a pivotal role in my self-growth before speaking on a panel.
Join me as we redefine confidence through the lens of self-discovery and the magic of relationships. It's an episode packed with insights you won't want to miss!
