Description
A couple of weeks ago, I had some family drama over what I, as an almost 36 year old woman, chose to wear. I felt that experience was such a powerful growth moment for me that I wanted to share, so on today's episode, I'll be diving into:
- how fashion is an easy, fun and creative form of self expression
- triggers, boundaries and how family conflict over a simple outfit was a major opportunity for me
- backstory on how I used clothing as a tool to grow from "obedient good girl" to "loud, weird barbie" (weird being something absolutely wonderful!)
- the quickly changing landscape of what it looks like to age and what I'm finding so inspiring about what I'm seeing
- how you can take your personal style to the next level to explore and play with the version of yourself you want to becomeFor more content, follow along on Instagram @mavmalone and on my Substack, Junk DrawerYou can purchase my latest poetry book, Hope & Other Beautiful Things - here.
