    303. Stop Networking. Start Belonging. with Liz Rossilli

    Today I'm joined by my good friend, Liz Rossilli—a woman who has completely redefined what it means to sell with confidence and integrity. Liz is the president of Sales Savvy, a sales consulting practice based in Cary, North Carolina, where she helps entrepreneurs and business owners attract consistent clients without sacrificing their sanity or compromising their values. With more than 30 years of experience in sales, she's learned that lasting success isn't built on pressure or persuasion—it's built on authentic relationships, trust, and showing up as yourself. Over the years, Liz has turned thousands of cold calls into genuine connections and loyal clients. Today, she's passionate about helping both men and women in business embrace a more relational approach to sales—one that feels aligned, empowering, and true to who they are. And one of the things I love most about Liz is that she doesn't just celebrate big milestones. She celebrates every win along the way, because she knows those small moments are what build confidence and momentum. I know you're going to love this conversation. We talk about visibility, networking, personal style, imposter syndrome, and why the most successful businesses are built not by trying to impress people, but by creating meaningful relationships. So let's dive in. In this episode, we explore: ● Why the moment you stop trying to fit in is the moment you become truly visible. ● How authentic relationships create opportunities that no sales strategy ever could. ● Why confidence isn't something you wait for—it's something you build every time you choose to show up.

    301. You Were Not Designed to Decline — You Were Designed to Divine | An Interview with Françoise Everett

    In this powerful conversation, Francoise Everett joins me for a soul-stirring exploration of visibility, self-expression, aging, and the hidden beliefs that keep so many women playing small. Together, they unpack the cultural conditioning, inherited messages, and inner fears that cause women to disconnect from their own presence—and what it really takes to reclaim confidence, radiance, and authenticity in midlife. This episode is an invitation to stop shrinking, stop apologizing, and remember who you've been all along. In this episode, we explore: ● Why so many women unconsciously shrink, dim their light, or fear being "too much" ● How comparison, perfectionism, and inherited beliefs rob us of confidence and visibility ● Why midlife may be the most powerful, radiant, and liberated chapter of your life yet Key Takeaways from This Conversation 1. Midlife is not decline—it is divine design. 2. Visibility requires self-sourced safety. 3. Many visibility blocks are inherited—not chosen. 4. Comparison erodes confidence at the identity level. 5. Perfection is often the real prison. 6. Style can be a portal back to self. 7. Authentic beauty cannot be manufactured. 8. Other women can become permission slips. 9. Your desires matter. 10.

    299. The New Era of Style Part 2

    The Question That Changes the Game What if the biggest shift in your style, confidence, visibility, and life came down to a single question? In this episode of The Art of Becoming Visible, I'm exploring the question that has the power to transform the way you get dressed, make decisions, show up in the world, and reconnect with yourself. For years, many women have been conditioned to ask, "How do I look?" But what happens when we replace that question with something far more powerful? This conversation is about moving from approval to alignment, from performance to presence, and from dressing for everyone else to dressing for yourself. In this episode, you'll discover: ✨ Why asking "How do I look?" keeps so many women stuck in self-doubt and second-guessing ✨ The simple question that creates greater confidence, authenticity, and self- trust ✨ How this shift reflects the new era of style - and why it changes everything If you've been feeling disconnected from yourself, your style, or your voice, this episode is your invitation to come home to who you really are. ​​Join me on Substack to go deeper: https://substack.com/@theartofbecomingvisible/ Come join the Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofbecomingvisible/ Follow me on IG https://www.instagram.com/marymicheleofficial/

    298. The New Era of Style: Part 1

    Midlife Women on the Verge of a Breakdown If you've scrolled through Instagram or Tiktok recently, you may have noticed something. Midlife women are no longer dressed 'appropriately' or 'for their age', but instead they are rocking outfits that are bold, colorful, and that fly in the face of convention. I've noticed that - while the majority of the comments made on my reels are positive - there are still plenty that tell me women are playing by the old rules. Comments like Those pants are too short (when referring to cropped pants) Lose the brows You're too old to wear that Not at your age, honey. Well, ladies, if this is your current mindset, get ready, because I am going to blow your mind and all you thought you new about style - right out the window.  ​​Join me on Substack to go deeper: https://substack.com/@theartofbecomingvisible/  Come join the Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofbecomingvisible/ Follow me on IG https://www.instagram.com/marymicheleofficial/

    297. The Most Underrated Act of Visibility is Choosing Yourself

    There comes a moment in a woman's life when she realizes she has spent years waiting to be chosen. Chosen by the right opportunity. Chosen by the right partner. Chosen by the audience, the client, the world. And somewhere along the way, she stopped choosing herself. In today's episode, we're talking about why the most underrated act of visibility isn't becoming louder, more polished, or more perfect — it's learning to choose yourself first. We'll explore how this shows up in your style, your confidence, your boundaries, your nervous system, and the identities you're still carrying that no longer fit the woman you're becoming. Because visibility doesn't start when the world finally notices you. It starts the moment you decide you are worthy of being seen.

    296. The Missing Piece No One Ever Taught You About Personal Style

In this episode, I share the hidden reason so many women feel disconnected from their wardrobes - even after creating capsules, organizing their closets, or buying all the "right" pieces. We explore the difference between simply having a functional wardrobe and developing a signature style that truly reflects who you are.

    295. 8 Things French Women Never Tolerate in Their Closets

    There's a reason you stand in front of a closet full of clothes… and still feel like you have nothing to wear. It's not because you need more clothes. It's because you've been taught to tolerate things that quietly drain your confidence, your energy… and your presence. Today, we're talking about what French women never allow in their closets - and more importantly, what you've been unconsciously holding onto that's keeping you feeling frumpy, invisible, or disconnected from yourself. This isn't about fashion. It's about identity. And it might change the way you see everything in your wardrobe. In this podcast you'll learn: ● The subtle way clothing may be disconnecting you from your body ● How chasing trends is keeping you stuck in someone else's identity ● The real cost of keeping clothes from a past version of yourself ● Why constantly adjusting your outfit is a sign something deeper is off ● The one category of clothing French women refuse to tolerate—and why it matters more than anything else Come join me on Substack: ​​https://substack.com/@theartofbecomingvisible/ Come join us in the Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofbecomingvisible/ Follow me on IG https://www.instagram.com/marymicheleofficial/

    293. The Return of the French Capsule: Why Simplicity Feels So Good Right Now

    Have you noticed that fashion suddenly feels… quieter? This spring, the timeless elegance of French style seems to be everywhere — rich chocolate tones, cream, denim, crisp white shirts, and simple layers that feel grounded rather than dramatic. In this episode, I'm exploring why the return of the French capsule wardrobe might be more than a fashion trend. It may be a response to the chaos and noise of modern life. When the world feels unpredictable, we instinctively reach for something steady. Discover how embracing simplicity, refinement, and effortless style can bring a sense of calm, clarity, and La Belle Joie — the beautiful joy of knowing exactly what works for you.Have you heard?

    285. From Closet to Confidence: 10 Signs You're Not Choosing Yourself

    You can tell a lot about a woman by her closet—and even more by how she carries herself. If your wardrobe is full of 'someday clothes,' if you hide behind black because it feels safer, or if you keep waiting until the weight comes off to buy something you love… that's not style, that's self-abandonment. The truth is, the way we dress, the way we see our bodies, and the way we show up in the world all reflect one simple choice: are you choosing yourself—or not? In this episode, I'm breaking down 10 powerful signs you're not choosing YOU, and how it's quietly draining your style, your body image, and your confidence. Because until you stop abandoning yourself, you'll never feel fully alive in your own skin. It's time to reclaim your voice, your wardrobe, and your worth—starting right here.

    262. What Does Your Body Type Have to Do with Your Style? {Signature Style Series}

    "I thought I didn't have style but now I realize I just didn't know how to dress for my body type." Women's bodies come in all shapes and sizes, and no two are alike. So it's no wonder than trying to dress like someone else can leave you feeling frustrated and feeling frumpy. What most women don't realize is that your body type has more to do with your style than you might think. In this episode I'm sharing how knowing this one key factor can affect your style in more ways than you can imagine, and how to leverage it to create our unique look. The DOORS ARE OPEN for the Midlife Makeover Membership! Join NOW and save over $650, plus you'll get $25,000+ worth of content and BONUSES! https://stylefindersos.com/Membership/ Join the Signature Style Challenge. It runs June 4-6, 2024 https://stylefindersos.com/2024-signature-style-start-challenge/ Your body type affects your style in more ways that you might think. First, you need to know what your body type is. This is the starting point for knowing what works for you. Consider your shape. That's going to determine what silhouettes Fit and Proportion: Different body types have different proportions. For example, an hourglass figure might benefit from cinched waists to accentuate their curves, while a rectangle body type might use belts or contrasting colors to create the illusion of a waist. Clothes that fit well will always look more flattering, regardless of body type. Ill-fitting clothes can be uncomfortable and unflattering Highlighting Features: Certain clothing cuts can draw attention to your favorite features. For instance, someone with broad shoulders might choose a v-neck to elongate their neck, while someone with great legs might choose a skirt or shorts to show them off. Confidence and Comfort: Ultimately, feeling confident and comfortable in what you wear is the most important thing. If a certain style doesn't flatter your body type but makes you feel amazing, rock it! Beyond Body Type: Personal style goes way beyond body type. Consider your lifestyle, personality, and what makes you feel like you. Fashion is constantly evolving, and there are trends that flatter all body types. Experiment and find what works for you! The takeaway: Body type can be a starting point for exploring styles that flatter your proportions, but it shouldn't be a limitation. Embrace your unique shape, find clothes that fit well, and wear what makes you feel confident and like the best version of yourself.
