Description

Have you ever tried to dress yourself in the morning only to find your thoughts flooded with negative self-talk about your body?  Have you ever wondered whether there is more intention that you can bring to your personal style that doesn't necessarily involve designer brands?  This week we are diving into the intersection of Spirituality and Style with Maria DiLorenzo.

Maria DiLorenzo is the Founder and CEO of MFD Style, a personal-styling and wardrobe consulting business. For the last 15 years, she has educated and guided those who seek to make a stronger connection between their self-presentation and self-love. Maria fervently believes how we dress says something deeper about how we feel about our own value and self-worth. With her intuitive styling approach, she has helped hundreds transform into the best version of themselves by leveraging wardrobe to reflect their authenticity. Maria’s expertise is in re-imagining wardrobes to help people maximize what they already own by creating new combinations and alternative functions for those items. She speaks about the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and style in her podcast, Above & Beyond Style. She holds a B.A. in psychology from Loyola University, New Orleans and a M.A. in pastoral ministry from Boston College. While Maria is currently based in Boston, Massachusetts, she is on an exciting relocation journey to infuse more vibrancy into her life!
