Getting Dressed Again After a Mental Health Crisis with Brandi Johnson

Welcome back to another guest episode of Just and Joyful! On this week’s guest appearance, Kristin is joined by Brandeis (Brandi) Johnson, a Style Alignment Strategist and the founder of Brandeis Nicole, a bespoke style and image consulting firm for high-impact women navigating growth, visibility, and reinvention, to talk about getting dressed again after experiencing a mental health emergency. When we get dressed in the morning, most of us aren’t thinking about how our choices highlight the state of our mental health.
