Set Your Style & Soul on Fire!
Let’s talk about something you might not think about every day—your personal style. This is, of course, interesting SINCE WE HAVE TO GET DRESSED EVERY SINGLE DAY. It’s more than just picking out clothes, it’s about how you want to feel. Your style reflects who you are inside and impacts how you show up in … Read More
Stop Lurking in Their Window
At least once a week people tell me their views and opinions on other people’s style choices. Sometimes they are complementary and sometimes they’re critical.

Letting Go to Make Space
Everyone has their favorite “go-to” clothes in their wardrobe. These are the clothes that you love the most – and wear the most – for a number of reasons that could include their uniqueness, how they look on you, the color / cut / style or some other similar reason. So, what happens with the … Read More
Remember Your Worth (it’s not just the clothes!)
Sometimes we use our clothes to allure in our desires. Attracting people, jobs, experiences and material things closer to us. And that’s ok! As you do this, make sure you remember your worth with or without those clothes (or people, places or things)! Consider what or who you want to draw into your field and … Read More
Ashleisure
The new year started with a bang as a bomb cyclone and a rash of cold & flu rolled through town leaving us all a bit frazzled, especially since we were hoping we had left all the bad in 2017. But on one of those remarkably frigid days in early January, a powerful woman and a group of … Read More
