Beauty and Becoming is a sanctuary for women who are ready to stop fixing themselves and start meeting themselves. Hosted by Coco — licensed esthetician, Reiki practitioner, certified Ayurvedic health instructor, and intuitive catalyst with over twenty years in the beauty industry — this show explores beauty not as something to apply or correct, but as something to remember. Something that has always lived within you, waiting to be revealed. Each episode is an invitation to come home — to your body, to the essence of your unique beauty, and to the wholeness that was never actually missing. We talk about holistic self-care as a devotional practice, beauty as a threshold to the Divine, and the real, honest, sometimes messy process of becoming who you actually are. Beauty isn't something we apply. It's something we awaken. New episodes every week. Come as you are.

    116. Self-Care with the Seasons: The Energy of September Says... Harvest Trust - It All Belongs in the Garden | With Carly Whorton

    Send us Fan Mail Here we are, officially welcoming September and the slow descent into a new season.  I am always happy to welcome back my friend, Carly Whorton, and her astrological wisdom into this space. Today's episode explores the transition from August into September through the lens of self-trust, discernment, and seasonal change. We discuss how August brought a surrender and emotional recalibration, and then we connect that thread to September’s invitation to choose more intentionally what benefits from our energy. We share our monthly oracle message, lean into the harvest season symbolism, and unpack several astrological themes, including Venus retrograde, Chiron’s temporary return to Aries, and the Virgo to Libra shift.  The episode centers on one big question: What is truly worth carrying forward? Topics include:  Revisiting how the last few months have asked us to become more of ourselves so that we can be of more service to others in the seasons to comeSurrendering in times of uncertainty and accepting the things that are not in our controlWhat it means to have a Warrior spiritResting as an act of service for the harvest to comeNot allowing criticism to impact our decision-making process, and the freedom that comes from that sovereigntyThe rose garden and what she teaches us about wholeness, discernment, generosity, and acceptanceEmbracing our own innocence and being gentle with ourselves through all of life's ups and downsThe importance of values and intention when tending to our own inner gardens, and what we are creating out in the world September astrology and questions we can sit with as we move through the monthRemaining curious about our own capabilities and long-term vision Resources Mentioned: Rebecca Campbell Rose Oracle Deck |  https://bookshop.org/a/126473/9781788172356 Podcast Episodes Mentioned:  112.

    115. True Beauty is Not Vanity... It’s Divinity

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we explore the meaning of beauty... something which is intrinsic to our very existence.  I share personal stories about my own relationship to beauty, as well as what I have witnessed through years of working in the industry. I explore what it means to reconnect with that inner well of beauty rather than looking outside of ourselves for a quick fix... Because there is absolutely nothing wrong with loving lipstick, Botox, skincare, hair care, makeup, or any of the beautiful ways we choose to adorn ourselves. The invitation is simply to pause and ask: Am I making this choice from an overflowing cup of beauty-fullness... or, am I hoping it will fill a cup that feels empty? In this episode we discuss: Beauty as our Divine natureOur bodies as sacred portals through which we experience beautyWhy "pretty" can be taught or bought, but beauty cannot Honoring the seasons, cycles, and changing expressions of our lives Ralph Waldo Emerson's quote from The Rhodora poem: "Beauty is its own excuse for being."

    114. When Insecurity Becomes a Doorway to Self-Love

    Send us Fan Mail I thought I wanted to be prettier... what I really needed was to be cared for.  If you listened to last week's episode, or have been following me on Instagram @beautyandbecomingwithcoco, you will know that I have been talking a lot about insecurity lately… Putting myself vulnerably front and center to share my own challenges with the reflection I see in the mirror… especially as someone with a podcast that has Beauty in the name and has been in the industry for decades.... But what if insecurity is another word for pain? And what if, sometimes, that pain becomes the thing that finally gets our attention? This episode is a reflection on: How insecurity can be understood as emotional painThe ways our Soul tries to get our attention through our human experiencesChoosing compassion over shame for the versions of ourselves who were simply trying to find relief, and honoring the winding ways we arrive at self-careMaybe the thing you’ve been judging yourself for is actually trying to show you where you need more love. Maybe your insecurity isn’t the enemy... Maybe it’s a messenger... Maybe it is the doorway, which doesn’t have to feel glamorous in order to be transformative on the other side.  Resources Mentioned:  Danielle Paige: https://daniellepaige.com/ IG | @iamdaniellepaige Podcast Episodes Mentioned: 112.

    113. Honoring Our Outdated Identities

    Send us Fan Mail Happy New Moon Solar Eclipse in Leo! In the spirit of today's energetic lessons... I hopped on the mic for an impromptu inspired episode.  This episode is a peek into my journal today and what I am working to transmute in my own life... the identity upgrade that I have needed.  I share about my insecurities as an esthetician battling acne, through a tumultuous health season the last couple of years.  May this episode remind you to honor where you are while you are in process of becoming... respecting every beauty-full version of yourself.  Podcast Episodes Mentioned: 112.

    Send us Fan Mail Carly Whorton joins me again today for our monthly energy chat!  August is juicy... and this conversation goes way beyond astrology.  Carly and I explore:  Honoring the seasons in our lives: the "still" seasons, the seasons asking us to walk away from what is no longer worth the "hard", and all the seasons in betweenHow we relate to the difficult events in our lives and discerning between what is difficult and needs to be re-evaluated vs. what is difficult and our Soul needs us to push through (Spoiler alert: difficulty is always a messenger for our Soul growth!)The difference between growing pains and dying painsThe thread being woven through June, July, and AugustFinding trust amidst the vulnerability of surrender, and reframing uncertainty as possibility Ways to set ourselves free from our own self-imprisonment The 10% methodWhy Leo season is asking us to RETURN to our desires... the joy and fun!The liberation that arrives with the knowing that your desire has your name on it, and your Soul will continue to lead you on the right path - you cannot get it wrong!   Resources Mentioned:  Way of the Rose Newsletter | https://wayoftherose.org/newsletters/ Rebecca Campbell Rose Oracle Deck | https://bookshop.org/a/126473/9781788172356 Podcast Episodes Mentioned:  111.

    111. Embodied Becoming: Integration, Integrity, & the Courage to Be Seen by Yourself

    Send us Fan Mail This week's episode arrived a little later than usual... on purpose. A week of heaviness, density, and overwhelm was asking for the spaciousness to be felt rather than fixed. I needed some time to mother myself before showing up in this space.  That practice of allowing became the doorway into today's conversation: taking becoming out of the conceptual and into the embodied. Last week's episode explored becoming through the lens of integrity and wholeness on a broader scale... this week, we bring it home into the Self. Set against the backdrop of Leo season and the collective energy of visibility and boldness, we ask a quieter, deeper question: Who are you really needing to be seen by? This episode explores: What it means to radically witness yourselfDefining what it means to live into our own personal golden era of successExperiencing our lives instead of consuming our livesThe pause as a practice: re-calibrating to our North Star regularly Podcast Episodes Mentioned: 110.
