In this episode, she opens up about the support that carried her through, the passion that drove her from cosmetology school to business ownership, and the lessons she's learned along the way about confidence, resilience, and entrepreneurship.

Her story is a powerful reminder that even your biggest hurdles can become the start of something extraordinary.

One of the biggest lies we get from culture is that our worth is chalked up to our beauty -- how young, fit, and flawless we look. And when we believe these lies and operate as if they are truth, we get caught in a trap that leaves us feeling ugly, worthless, and stuck in comparison. But what if I told you the secret to feeling beautiful doesn't lie in another diet plan, makeup product, or squeezing another hour of gym time into your schedule? The biggest way we can break free from these feelings of insecurity is by healing the root of them: our belief system. While so many things make up our belief system, the foundation of it lies in our faith and our values. In this episode, we get deep about: Why many of us define our value based on the lies of the Enemy and culture How to break free from the lies Inserting God's voice and truth into our heads How to get real about your own faith & values if you're unsure.

What if the way you see yourself is shaping the way you dance—and the way others experience you at the milonga?Tango isn't just about steps; it's about presence. And yet, so many dancers hesitate, shrink, or second-guess themselves because they don't feel they “look” the part. But does appearance really determine connection, or is something deeper at play?In this episode, I dive into the unspoken anxieties of body image in tango—how age, size, and self-perception shape our experience on the dance floor. I explore the invisible factors that make a dancer magnetic, the surprising ways confidence is built (or broken), and why the most unforgettable tandas have nothing to do with how you look in the mirror.If you've ever wondered whether you belong in tango the way you are, this one's for you.It's hard to be objective about your own dancing.That's where I come in. Send me your dance videos through IMSO Tango School Online, and I'll point out what's working (and what's not) with clear, constructive feedback.

Five years ago, I made the decision to let go of coloring my hair, a choice that I realized was so much more than a style change. It became a journey of challenging cultural expectations, facing fears of rejection, and ultimately reclaiming my sense of self.   This was such a deeply personal yet universal choice—a journey through fear, anger, and finally, freedom as I chose to embrace my natural gray hair.    This transformation wasn't just about hair—it was about stepping into my authenticity, redefining beauty, and finding a new level of confidence that spilled into every area of my life. It's my story of shedding layers of societal pressure to reimagine womanhood in midlife on my own terms.   If you've ever wondered why we feel the need to conform to beauty standards that don't resonate with our true selves, or if you're curious about how letting go of those standards can transform your life, this episode is for you.    In this episode, I'm talking about: My journey into aging naturally. Questioning societal expectations for women around beauty. Fear of judgment with aging.  The differences between aging men and women.  How the choice to go gray led to self-discovery and growth.  The energy and belief behind our choices. Encouraging women to question the “why” behind beauty choices. Health benefits of cutting out hair dye chemicals.    Join me to explore this liberating experience and the power of embracing who we are, fully and unapologetically.   The Muse Community: The Muses.
