If getting dressed still feels like an audition, you’re not doing anything wrong — you were trained to adorn yourself for approval, not expression. In this episode, we talk about why visibility feels so threatening for women raised in high-control systems, and how glamour magic shifts when it’s rooted in sovereignty instead of pleasing. I’ll share the story of the black dress I abandoned for years after one judgmental comment, and walk you through a simple adornment ritual you can try tonight.
If you want help grounding your field so this ritual lands, go watch my free ceremony You Don’t Need to Protect Your Energy, You Need to Reclaim It.
