In this episode, I share my experience of going for a colour analysis and how it made me reflect on something much deeper than just clothes.

We often think confidence comes from how we look—but actually, it’s about how we feel in ourselves.

I talk about how many women, especially during perimenopause, lose confidence in their appearance, stop making the effort, and start putting themselves last. And why that isn’t about vanity—it’s about self-worth.

In this episode, I cover:

• Why we often dress for practicality rather than how we feel
• The connection between clothing, confidence, and self-perception
• How body changes during perimenopause impact self-esteem
• Why waiting to “feel better” before making an effort keeps you stuck
• The importance of dressing for yourself—not for others

Key takeaway:
You don’t need to change your body to feel better—you need to change how you treat yourself now.

A question to reflect on:
Do you dress for comfort, for fashion, or for how you feel?

And what could you tweak—even slightly—to feel a bit better in yourself?

Support & next steps:

If you’re struggling with confidence, motivation, or feeling like yourself again during perimenopause, support is available.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
