Episode 253: Dressing the body you're in, not the body you want with stylist Nicole Garfunkel
Description
Getting dressed is hard enough as it is. Getting dressed in a body that feels new after eating disorder recovery or years of disordered eating? Whole different level.
In this conversation, I’m joined by personal stylist Nicole Garfunkel, who works specifically with women in eating disorder recovery, to talk about closets, clothing sizes, “flattering,” experimenting with style, and why your wardrobe might be the missing piece of your healing.
You’ll hear:
- Why your closet holds so much emotional “energy” – and what it means if it’s packed with old sizes and “one day” jeans
- The first thing Nicole has clients do before shopping or buying anything new (and why it has nothing to do with trends)
- A totally different way to think about “flattering” that has nothing to do with looking smaller
- Practical, grounded tips to make shopping less triggering – from what to eat, to who to bring, to when not to go
- How getting dressed can become a daily self-care ritual instead of a panic-inducing chore
- How to start experimenting with clothes when you’re convinced you “can’t pull that off”
- Why re-wearing your clothes (instead of constant hauls) can actually help define your personal style
Nicole is a personal stylist for people in eating disorder recovery. Her mission is to is to help you use fashion as a tool for living the life you desire, especially once you’re recovered into a new body and a new version of yourself.
