This is a recent breakthrough that I have uncovered and am seeing in all its light.
I've been working with my coach and brought this to her after noticing how I dull myself down when it comes to feminine and pretty clothing, telling myself and others, "oh I'm just not a dress person". I did this also until recently when I told myself, "I'm not a shorts person", and would wear tights and pants throughout summer!
After guest speaking at an IWD event, I admired the woman who dressed sexy and boldly and wondered why I felt so uncomfortable expressing this part of me. With some solid self enquiry it became clear that I have used clothes as my boundary to communicate, "I'm not a sexy or sexual person, so stay away thanks!" During my late teens and early twenties I allowed people to treat my body however they wanted and gave it up freely. In my later twenties and early thirties I swung the opposite way, became closed and dressed to say, "not interested!"
In today's episode I share where this stems from, why I've made these decisions to date and how I'm allowing myself to express this suppressed part of me in a way that feels good for me.
**Please note that in today's episode there is mention of sexual abuse. Please be mindful of this prior to pressing play, treasure.
