My client Kimberly tells a funny shoe story!
Jen Hajj, Salt Lake, Vocal Artist
"I've been spending my 40's reinventing myself, or rather, stepping into who I always knew I was, but was afraid to show. In this pursuit, weight has melted off my body, I've found my creative voice, and taken risks. And I'm having fun.
I bit the bullet and hired Auretha to go shopping with me. It was the experience I wanted (since high school.) People were actually hanging out near the dressing room to see what I was going to put on next. There was a flurry of interest around these flamboyant ladies at the TJ Maxx. I spent more money on clothing than I ever have in one sitting...again, I just had to bite the bullet on that one. As I go out in my new scarves, new tops and new dresses I feel so much more put together. I'm spending a little more time on my hair and makeup every morning. I'm thinking about what I look like.
It isn't to impress anyone. I'm not wearing makeup to get boys to like me, or dressing for attention. But I can tell you that when I dress like I give a sh*t (as Auretha so delicately put it), people seem to receive me more openly. Then they give a sh*t.
I'm not going to say that Auretha has changed me from an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan...I'm doing that on my own. But sometimes, you need a coach at the right time, just to help you fly in the right direction. "

“I had the joy of talking with Auretha. (Can I just say how much I loved talking with you, sweetie?) It was an amazing conversation. Auretha’s got this unconditional support vibe that’s amazing. She’s also highly intuitive – she picked up on A LOT of stuff that’s going on.Through this whole experience with my former mentor, I really started to doubt myself, my skills, the value I offer… but Auretha met me with such love and such high regard that I couldn’t keep doubting myself in her presence.
Auretha led me through a couple of exercises from Gay & Katie Hendricks about feeling the feelings in your body. Doing that was amazing – I hadn’t realized how much emotion I was (still) stuffing into my physical tissues instead of expressing, since I’m already very expressive. But there’s a lot there in my body that still needs its say. Thank you so much for helping me with this, Auretha. “
