    Why Wearing the Wrong Colors Is Keeping You Invisible (And How to Fix It)

    Why do so many ambitious women feel muted, washed out, or invisible—even when they're well-dressed and confident? The answer isn't about style, effort, or taste. It's about colour. In this episode, Christie reveals the hidden psychology, biology, and energetics of color—and why wearing the wrong palette quietly erodes confidence, drains your energy, and keeps you playing small without you even realizing it. You'll discover: Why black isn't always "slimming" (and what it's actually doing to your face and energy) The biological reason certain colours make you look tired, aged, or heavy—even when nothing is technically wrong How colour affects first impressions within 90 seconds (and why up to 90% of snap judgments are influenced by color alone) Why the average woman only wears 20% of her wardrobe—and how color misalignment is the hidden culprit Why women naturally embrace color as they step into their power (and what that shift reveals about confidence) How guessing with color costs you thousands in unworn clothes, wasted time, and lost confidence Why color analysis is the foundation of an effortless wardrobe—not a luxury add-on The energetic truth about color and why certain shades drain you while others lift you Whether you're a woman who wants to feel radiant and visible again, or a beauty and style professional looking to create deeper client trust and transformational results, this episode will fundamentally shift how you see color. Perfect for: Women who feel disconnected from their wardrobe and want to feel confident getting dressed Personal stylists, image consultants, makeup artists, and beauty professionals seeking precision in their recommendations Anyone tired of guessing with color and ready for a system that actually works Resources mentioned: Rise Through Style Membership – comprehensive color, energy, and style system https://www.fashiontranslated.com/rise  One-on-one Colour Analysis with Christie: https://www.fashiontranslated.com/online-color-analysis  Color Analysis Training https://www.fashiontranslated.com/online-colour-analysis-training  Come join me on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/ChristieRessel

    How To Reinvent Yourself In 2026

    Reinvention isn't about becoming someone new — it's about releasing the version of you that no longer fits. This episode explores the tools that actually support reinvention; not resolutions or goal lists, but the subtle, everyday shifts that change how you think, act, and show up in your life. We're talking about identity, habits, environment, and style — and how these elements quietly shape your confidence, energy, and direction. We explore the invisible choices that quietly shape your confidence, your energy, and your results; from what you tolerate, to how you dress, to whether your daily habits support the life you say you want. Inside the episode, we unpack: The mindset shift that changes your results faster than goal-setting ever will A simple way to tell if your daily actions actually match the future you want How your clothing influences confidence, focus, and personal power (often without you realizing it) Why consistency — not intensity — is what creates lasting transformation The role your environment plays in either reinforcing your old identity or supporting your next one Why growth always feels uncomfortable, awkward, or "cringe" before it feels aligned How learning, curiosity, and expansion are essential to feeling alive again If you've been craving a fresh chapter — not a dramatic overhaul, but a deeper alignment with who you're becoming — this episode will help you rethink reinvention and begin from a more powerful place.
