What if your closet is holding more than clothes?
In Episode 185 of the Empowered & Embodied Show, Kim Romain and Louise Neil sit down with style coach and strategist Kyla Brown to explore style as a tool for daily embodiment and identity work.
They unpack the difference between dressing for performance and dressing for authenticity, how internalized beliefs show up in what we wear, and why giving yourself permission to hit reset can change everything.
This is a conversation about self-worth, personal power, and learning to dress from the inside out. Because style isn’t about image... it’s a signal of our alignment.
