On this week’s episode of the Style Masterclass Podcast, I am answering listener questions submitted on Instagram. 

1. How to get out of a style rut? I talk about two different types of style ruts and how to shake things up. I also reference the episode ``One Boob at a Time Protocol” which is a great episode to circle back to if you are struggling to get dressed at all.
2. How do I dress age appropriately? I talk about why there is no such thing as “age appropriate” and give you a better question to ask instead. Don’t think about style in terms of age, but rather in terms of “what clothes support the lifestyle I want to have.”

1. Slay is the style component
2. Conquer is the confident mindset component
3. When you have both, you are unstoppable.

In this Year of The Curvy Comeback, I am encouraging every curvy woman to address both parts of the makeover equation. Yes, we want you dressed to the nines looking ready to slay. AND yes we also want to ensure that you have the confident mindset whatever your body happens to be doing.

If you have the style part down, but struggle with the confident mindset this week’s episode is for you.

2. "Style is silly" is a thought other people have, but it's not one that you have to take on as true.

None of my recommendations have to do with you going on a diet, squeezing yourself into multiple Spanx, or going on some sort of weird fast to cure belly bloat before you get into a dress. In fact, I'm not a believer in modifying your body in any way to fit into clothing. I believe that the clothing must conform to your body

This week we're going to talk about banishing BS fashion rules. So many of my curvy style masterclass students come to me with a lot of BS fashion rules. To create a style you love, you will need to banish all of these old rules. I believe every woman should dress and love the body she is in, but when you have a rule book telling you what you can and cannot wear it feels very difficult to break free and create a wardrobe you truly love.

Plain and simple you all are in need of a confidence boost. So many of us think that confidence is something we are born with or something that we can get. It's as if you believe, confidence is an arrival place and once you have it you always have it. I also think that sometimes we believe that confidence comes from a set of actions that we do. If we just perfect these sets of actions, we will automatically be confident. What ends up happening though is if we don't complete the set of tasks in exactly the right way, it erodes confidence. We are placing our ability to feel confident in our ability to complete a set of actions. Actions are not what creates confidence. We create confidence with our thoughts. I know this may seem counter-intuitive. So I'm going to give you a little confidence boost, by debunking some common confidence myths.

A go to outfit is an outfit that you can rely on in a pinch. It is the outfit you can throw on before you head out the door and know you're going to look stylish and feel confident when wearing it. A go-to outfit is different than the regular schleppy clothes you have draped across a chair. A go to outfit must leave you looking stylish and feeling confident. Those are the two first criteria of a go to outfit. The other criteria is that it must be something comfortable. It must be something you actually want to wear. Here's how you create a go to outfit in three easy steps.

On this week's episode of the New Glam Gal Podcast, we are talking about putting on a brave face during a crisis. For my boss ladies it is important that you show up to lead at work and home with a brave face. This episode talks about:

-Why it's okay to put on that brave face

-How a brave face is like putting on fierce makeup

-Learning that it is okay to sometimes take off that brave face just like taking makeup off at the end of the day

-Making space for the brave face and also for taking a minute to yourself where you can feel scared, worried, or doubtful. There is room for both. You just have to be deliberate about when you choose to brave face armor up and take it off.

On this week's episode of the New Glam Gal Podcast, we are talking about layering spanx and I share the top five things I learned when trying on over 10 different types of shapewear in different combinations. I learned the following: 1. Choose the correct type of shapewear for the dress and the other undergarments you will be wearing. 2. Choose the right size 3. The smaller sized shapewear goes on first, then the other layers for smoothing 4. Keeping your skin dry helps you to roll everything off and on. 5. Wiggle around to make sure the shapewear settles into all of your creases so you aren't pinching your fat. OF COURSE YOU CAN ALWAYS DECIDE TO WEAR ONE OR NONE.

Hey Glam Gals! I am so excited to bring to you a new way of approaching this whole self love thing. In my free body image makeover course, I teach women how to start loving their body by choosing one believable thought at a time. That is definitely not going away. But what I have noticed in working with you all of you lovely gals is that convincing you that you can love your WHOLE body may be a bit of a tough sell. This is especially true for my gals who struggle with BDD. So here is what I am proposing. Let's not even start trying to worry about your whole body. You eat a whole pie, one bite at a time. That's how we are going to approach this whole self love thing. Let's not worry about the whole damn pie. First let's taste it, smell it, hold it in our hands. Teeny tiny bits at a time. Same is true of your body. Let's not worry about loving your WHOLE body right this minute. Let's start one eyelash at a time. Stay tuned for this week's podcast episode.

This week's podcast episode is all about why it's ok to suck at style. A bad outfit isn't a sure sign that something is wrong with you or your body. What I'm learning from my Style School students is that we sometimes forget what its like to be a beginner and that is totally okay to suck at something. You won't nail every outfit on the first try. You didn't learn to walk that way either. There was a ton of trial and error. Same is true for learning your sense of style and becoming more confident. The road to style is paved with a lot of ugly outfits. So what? It doesn't mean anything about you unless you think it does. So give yourself some grace this week as you use trial and error to guide you on your way to style & confidence.

This week's podcast episode is all about the upside of a bad outfit. This is for my gals who have an outfit fail and decide to give up on this whole looking stylish thing.  The secret sauce...use the bad outfit days to assess your progress. A bad outfit is one of the best ways to know where you have further work to do, whether that work is on your actual wardrobe or your thoughts about yourself. 

So assuming you believe that there could be an upside to a bad outfit, how do you asses the bad outfit in order to up level your style game. Three simple questions to ask yourself? 1. What will I continue doing? 2. What can I just stop? 3. What can I start doing?

This week's podcast episode is all about one of my favorite coaching tools. I teach you all about asking yourself better questions. I talk about my top five favorite fabulous questions. So many of my glam gals ask themselves shitty questions so they get shitty answers. They ask why am I so fat? why am I so ugly? why can't I ever seem to leave the house on time? Their brain will give them shitty answers. That is what brains are wired to do. Our brains are wired to answer the shitty questions we ask it and not in a kind way either. Our brains will tell us all the reasons we are fat, unworthy, and unstylish. We do this long enough and we start to believe all of the crappy things our brains tell us. We get stuck in a negative thought loop and it becomes our everyday. We can get unstuck. We can get out of that negative thought loop. We can turn this whole negative thought train around. How? By asking our brains better questions. Ask a better question and you'll get a better answer.

On this week's episode of The New Glam Gal Podcast, we are talking about a common quoted fashion rule "No White After Labor Day." I love fashion history and arbitrary fashion rules. You always get to decide whether or not to follow a fashion rule. But you must always remember, they are made up. A human or group of humans got together to make a rule about piles of fabric that are attached to other piles of fabric. You always get to decide whether you want to follow that rule, trend, and/or style. You get to decide whether you want to "break the rules." You always have a choice. If you decide to play along, check your reasons. Are you trying to keep up with the insta-Joneses? Or do you simply wish to keep your white shoes clean? (Tee-hee) Stay tuned as we discuss: 1. The history of the No White After Labor Day Rule 2. The mythos surrounding the history of the rule 3. You always get to choose whether to follow or break style rules.

This week's podcast episode is all about Time Travelling Closets. This is for my gals who keep items from several decades in their closets. This is for my gals who keep clothing sizes that range from three sizes up to three sizes down (maybe even more). I see you boo boo. The problem with a time travelling closet is that it creates decision fatigue every time you enter your closet. You have to say a 100 little no's to items that simply do not fit, are not your style, and that you wouldn't even buy today. That is exhausting for a brain that is just waking up and trying to get started. So let's give that brain a break. No more weeding through all the NO's every morning. Remove those items from your closet so that the items that: 1. Fit You 2. Fit your sense of style 3. You would buy them today. Are all in the same spot? Easy to see? Easy to mix and match outfits from!

You are good enough. 

In case you need to hear it again. You are good enough.

This can be hard to believe. Especially if you have spent your whole life thinking that you aren’t good enough. Its like having a record playing in your mind stuck on repeat “not good enough.” But what if you could turn that record off? Even if just for a moment? What a freaking relief that would be, right?!

This week’s podcast episode is all about how to turn off the “not good enough” record. We have been working on old thought patterns all month long. To check out prior episodes in the series click “I feel fat” and “I don’t feel beautiful.”

When you are in observer mode and can observe your thoughts from a distance, you actually stop thinking them for a moment. Your brain will stop the “not good enough” record from playing, when you stop and pick up that record to look at it. To stop the record and pick it up, practice this process: 1. I am thinking the thought “I am not good enough (or insert your variation of this thought)” 2. This is just a thought I am thinking right now. 3. I am not my thoughts. This puts you into observation mode and brings those “not good enough” thoughts captive. Rinse and repeat. This is especially helpful for my gals who are stuck in self loathing and can’t seem to break free.

The process is based upon the premise that we are not our thoughts. We create thoughts. We can reframe them, change them, and discard them. The YOU that is YOU is separate and apart from your thoughts. Know how I know? Because you can think about your thoughts. You can step back and observe them. Ever ruminate on every single bit of a conversation you had after you had it? The part of you think that can think about your thoughts and observe you in action…that part of you can separate itself from your thoughts. You are not your thoughts. If you have been stuck in the “not good enough” loop and are ready to break free. Reach out for some help. Click here for a free consult.

On this week's episode of the New Glam Gal podcast, we are continuing our month long coaching session. Last week we discussed the common phrase "I feel fat" and how to turn around those fat days. To listen to that episode, click here.

This week, we are discussing the common phrase "I don't feel beautiful." So many of my clients struggle with this thought daily. They are hoping and praying somebody somewhere will help them get to that magical place where they start to feel beautiful. Good news! You have the power right now to take yourself to that magical place where beauty resides. It lives within you.

This week we discuss:

1. You are full of beauty. That's right my darling. Your beauty tank is 100% full. There is nothing you need to do or take away to tap into that beauty. You are already full of beauty.
2. Since you are already full of beauty, you are therefore beautiful. That's right. You already are beautiful.
3. From this basic premise, you are already full of beauty and beautiful, what will you do? How will you choose to show up in the world. Imagine if you really believe 1 and 2. If you believe you are beautiful, how would you dress? For most of you, if you really believed you would show up as a completely different person.

BUT, you may be waiting for permission to step into this beauty. You may be hoping someone will come along and tell you. Well, darling, here is your 100% permission to go be yourself. You have my permission to go forth and be your beautiful self.

If you struggle with believing, I totally get that. Reach out for help. Sign up for a free consultation.

What to do when I feel fat? How do I turn around fat days? What do I do when I have lost weight, but I still feel fat?

These are common questions I get from all of you. It breaks my heart every time you ask so I thought it was high time I deep dive into this question. There are a few things that are key to know about days when you say "I feel fat."

Podcast Breakdown

1. Fat is not a feeling. It is not an emotion. Fat is adipose tissue on your body. It is not an actual feeling in your body.
2. It is important that you stop and identify what it really happening for you. Don't let your brain get away with telling you "I feel fat" and then leave it there. Instead, it is super important for you to stop and assess. What am I really feeling? Did I just see myself in the mirror, in a selfie, in a photo online somewhere? Am I thinking the thought "I look fat." Stop and assess what is really happening. Name that emotion, whether it is sad, worried, shame, doubt, rejection. Once we can call that emotion an actual name, we can learn to process it and get you some relief.
3. Once you are able to identify what is going on for you, then you are better able to process and move through the negative emotion. Notice, I didn't say let's jump to a positive thought. That may only make you feel worse. Instead, I want you to process and move through whatever is actually going on for you. Reframe it, reach out for help, get some coaching. DO NOT SIT ALONE. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE ALONE. I AM HERE TO HELP YOU!!

So my darling glam gal, listen to this week's podcast if you find yourself frequently saying "I feel fat." Challenge that thought and don't sit in your negative feelings alone. Set up a free consultation. Click here to start with the free Body Image Makeover Course.
