029: Self-Love Starts with a Selfie (No, Really)

Y’all, we are kicking off another Selfie Challenge this summer and this episode is your official backstage pass and hype session all in one. I sat down with Rachael to talk about why we’re doing this challenge, what it actually means to exist in photos, and how something as simple as taking a selfie can lead to huge shifts in how you see yourself.We get into the real stuff -- like how showing up in front of a camera (even when it’s just your front-facing phone) can be deeply vulnerable, wildly powerful, and even... fun? Yes, fun. There’s laughter, a little sidebar story time (as always), and some stories from my pre-Empowerment Studio life -- turns out singing “Wheels on the Bus” to 12 babies at a daycare was the perfect foreshadowing of me singing encouragements to my grown-up clients now 😆This episode is an invitation to join us in our next round of the Selfie to Self Love 5-Day Challenge (it's free!). The challenge is all about reclaiming your image on your own terms. It’s not about filters or perfection—it's about you, showing up for yourself one photo at a time. Whether you’re selfie-curious, a selfie-pro, or selfie-resistant, this challenge, and this episode, is for you.👉 And if your curiosity is piqued (or you already know you want in), head to selfietoselflove.com to sign up. You’ll be the first to hear when the next challenge dates are announced. (It'll be sometime this summer!)Trust me, you don’t want to miss it.🤳🏼 Get our FREE selfie guide: https://empowermentphotographer.com/selfie🔗 Sign up for the #SelfietoSelfLove Challenge: selfietoselflove.com📸 Follow us on Instagram: @empowermentstudio__🌐 Learn more about our boudoir sessions and Empowerment Experience: empowermentphotographer.com👥 Join our Facebook Group: The Empowerment Studio
