“Thank you. I don't know how to express how moved I am by what you provided for me. Before I went to bed, I took all the clothes on the "get rid of" pile and laid them on the couch. The pile is HUGE. I realized this was a HUGE undertaking; I am really shifting something here. I realized why I have been excited and tense, this was somewhat scary! I woke up this morning feeling a little drained and then saw the pile -- no wonder I feel drained, I am "draining" old stuff -- out, out, out!

I realize a few things. When I saw all the pictures I had ripped out of the fashion magazines, laid out and through your eyes, I did see a pattern. You helped name it. When you asked me all the questions about my life I was thinking, "This is stupid." When you sorted it out to "Sporty/Dramatic/Creative" as my style, I was YES! That's me!

I got that my sense of taste is not all that bad; you actually validated many of my things. You going through my closets were incredibly validating. I was convinced I would look like an abysmal fashion failure before you arrived and felt some shame! Your suggestions about belts and things I already had were -- wow! I have like 10 more outfits. I don't see how anyone would not want to do this every 6 months without a professional. I have done it with girlfriends and never felt this sense of completeness.... AND you felt like my best girlfriend, you are so personable and charming, you are at ease and knowledgeable with your craft and yourself - I felt totally at ease to express myself and share like with a best girlfriend. I know that all you want is for the real ME to step forward and up front and be FULLY SELF EXPRESSED in every way. Truly, yesterday was one of the best days of my life -- it was totally about ME! My dreams and visions and becoming them...

... I am very touched. Thank you.”
