78) Using Clothing & Color to Boost Confidence in Matrescence with Bekah

In this episode, we dive deep into the connection between body image, self-perception, and the role clothing plays in matrescence (the transformation into motherhood). After discussing the physical and emotional changes in our previous episode, we now turn our focus on how clothing choices and color psychology can empower us and boost confidence during this life-altering phase.


Joining us today is Bekah, an expert in the transformative power of clothing. Together, we explore how the colors we wear can deeply influence how we feel about ourselves in the mirror and, ultimately, in our daily lives. Bekah shares practical insights on how choosing colors that resonate with you can enhance your sense of self-worth, elevate your mood, and help you regain confidence as you navigate the unique journey of matrescence.


Whether you're struggling with a shifting body image or simply want to feel more empowered in your clothes, this episode offers valuable tools to help you connect with your inner strength, one outfit at a time.

  • How color psychology impacts body image and confidence

  • The role of clothing in matrescence and new motherhood

  • How to use colors to boost self-esteem and emotional well-being
