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.

Key Takeaways

  • Style is a daily act of identity work. It’s how we embody who we are, not just what we wear.
  • Our closets often mirror our inner world; clutter, shame, or holding on can reveal deeper emotional patterns.
  • Dressing for authenticity reconnects us to personal power and self-trust.
  • Letting go of clothes that no longer fit who we’re becoming creates space for evolution and possibility.
  • Hitting “reset” on style isn’t vanity, it’s an act of self-knowledge and liberation.
