    2022/10/06

    Have you ever wondered if you have a shopping problem? Or even just questioned whether your shopping habits feel…healthy? Or aligned with your values? 

     

    These are the questions that my guest today, Isabel Varela, had to face when she found herself in $100,000 worth of debt - from buying clothes.

     

    Isabel is a life coach, motivational speaker, sustainable activist and artist who teaches women how to beat overshopping and shopping addiction by growing self love and living sustainably.

     

    In today’s episode Isabel and I discuss how she got into - and out of - debt. And how coming to terms with her shopping addiction allowed her to overcome her own insecurities + low self esteem - and find herself in the process. Plus, how you can do the same.

     

    Isabel also shares her tips on how to build a better relationship with ourselves through our clothes, and some easy things we can do at home to make our own wardrobes more sustainable.

    Noble designs clothing for women + kids around 3 core pillars of value: fashionable, functional, and sustainable. 

     

    In this episode Jen and I chat about doing sustainable fashion the right way and how all of Noble’s garments are made from seed to stitch in the very same place - which is incredible and almost unheard of in the fashion industry.

     

    Plus, Jen shares her insights on starting your own shop or clothing line, embracing vintage and over the top style, dressing as a mom, fashion’s effect on mental health and the power of small steps to reach your dreams.

     

    Listener Note: Jen and I discuss pregnancy loss in this episode, something we have both experienced. If this topic is upsetting or triggering to you then you’ll want to skip the end of the episode when we talk about it. Please discern what is best for you and know that I fully understand + support you if you need to protect your heart by skipping over this conversation today.

  • Finding Your Jewelry Style with Kat McCoy
    2022/07/28

    When it comes to simple, foundational style, accessorizing with jewelry can easily become an afterthought. In fact, I would say that jewelry is an underdeveloped part of my style. Though I love to wear it, I often just forget to put it on. Can you relate?

     

    Fortunately my guest today, Kat McCoy, is here to help. Kat is the owner of Best Kept Jewelry Concierge where she works with clients to source or design the perfect personalized piece of jewelry.

     

    In this episode Kat shares how to choose jewelry that aligns with your personal style, how to shop for jewelry - or design your own, jewelry styling tips from an industry pro, and her top picks for foundational jewelry pieces for jewelry minimalists like me.

     

    We also discuss ethics in the diamond industry and how you can be sure that, if you’re buying diamonds, they’ve been honestly and ethically sourced.
