Expressing Yourself through Personal Style with Gillian Jakob Kieser: Creative Living with Jamie (eps 297)

In this episode of Creative Living with Jamie, I sit down with my style teacher Gillian Jakob Kieser to explore how personal style is about so much more than clothes. It's a powerful a journey into self-trust, embodiment and reclaiming ourselves.. Gillian shares her journey from a sea of beige sweaters to a vibrant, authentic aesthetic, and I open up about my own style evolution through perimenopause, grief and rediscovering my self. This isn't a generic one-size-fits-all approach. It's a call to dress like the artist you are, radiating confidence and joy. Together, we explore: ✨ Why style is not superficial, but a profound form of self-expression ✨ How identity shifts (aging, grief, motherhood, life transitions) impact how we see ourselves ✨ The hidden cost of trying to fit into mainstream fashion narratives ✨ Style as both shadow work and creative practice ✨ How to work with your body instead of against it ✨ The magic of finding what truly feels like home This episode is an invitation to step out of unaligned costuming and into a way of dressing, being and living that feels deeply, unmistakably your own. Tune in if... You're ready to stop fighting your body and clothes, reclaim all parts of yourself and step into a wardrobe that feels magnetic and true. Perfect for artists, midlife makers and anyone craving deeper level of self-expression through style. Listen now and let your style tell your story.
