What if style wasn’t about what you wear, but how you reclaim your voice? In this powerful conversation on One Body to Love, I sit down with visibility strategist and cultural consultant Michaeala Letiz to explore the deeper meaning of style, representation, and self-worth. Michaela opens up about her journey through body exclusion, reclaiming confidence, and helping brands move beyond tokenism into true inclusivity. If you’ve ever held back from showing up because of your size, or waited to live fully until your body changed, this conversation will challenge, affirm, and empower you.
In this episode, you will hear:
- 02:34 – How Michaela’s early years in fashion were shaped by toxic body ideals
- 10:10 - Why most fashion isn’t truly made for diverse bodies and how industry gaps perpetuate harm
- 14:03 -Posting outfits online and finding community in vulnerability
- 24:00 - Living your energetic signature: reconnecting to who you were before the world told you to shrink
- 30:54 - Michaela’s approach to helping women rediscover their confidence through clothing
- 45:12 - Busting the myth that plus-size people don’t invest in themselves
- 48:21 - Curating your social media to support your self-worth
