Hi, I’m Stasia.
I teach women how to live in alignment with who they are— not who the world taught them to be.

STYLING MYSELF HOME
I didn’t set out to heal through style. I was just trying to find pants that didn’t make me hate my body. (Spoiler alert: my body wasn’t the problem!) But I’d been practicing shame for so long, I didn’t even notice I was blaming myself every time something didn’t zip, fit, or feel right.
That’s the thing about unworthiness—it doesn’t scream; it whispers. It becomes a habit. A default setting. A quiet agreement we make with a culture that tells us we’re too much and not enough.
So I tried to outthink it. Keep things neutral. Fly under the radar. But flying under the radar kept me disconnected—from my body, my voice, my aliveness.
What I needed wasn’t more effort—it was more alignment. I needed to reMEMBER the parts of me that were still whole. So I began consciously tuning into what felt real and rooted, and dressing to amplify those sensations.
This wasn’t a simple shift. It was a radical reorientation— back to my body, back to my knowing, back to myself.
That reorientation became a new way of being. A quiet revelYOUtion rooted in self-trust, body-sensations, and alignment.
Now, it’s not just how I live—IT’S WHAT I TEACH.
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
When my daughter, Raisa, was born with craniofacial and limb differences, I was terrified. Not because she wasn’t perfect. But because I didn’t know how to raise a daughter—born with visible, undeniable differences—in a culture that shames women for falling short of impossible beauty standards.
How was I supposed to teach her to love her body… when I hated mine, even though I was thin, white, and pretty—everything our culture celebrates? I had a few dimples of cellulite and thought that made my body disgusting. By all accounts, I was sitting near the top of the beauty hierarchy—and I still felt like I wasn’t enough.

MY BODY WASN’T THE PROBLEM
Raisa’s early years were hard. She had up to 9 doctor’s appointments a week, my husband was in grad school, I was beyond exhausted, and we were struggling financially. I’d spend hours a day strolling her around town in her buggy, poking into the local thrift shop that was on my walking-route. I had never been a thrifter before, but gosh, everything was affordable, I needed a distraction, and they had cute stuff. Every once in a while, I’d buy myself something that fit my body so perfectly, I almost forgot that I hated my body.
Why did certain shapes work on me while others didn’t? Why did I feel amazing in one pair of jeans and awful in another?
So I started studying—balance and proportion, line and shape––and I realized… NOT ALL CLOTHES ARE SUPPOSED TO FIT ALL THE BODIES! Why didn’t anybody ever tell me that MY BODY WASN’T THE PROBLEM!! I was so excited about this discovery, I started a blog called Thrift Me Pretty, and blew people’s minds wide open.
inside-out congruency
But even still, clothes often felt like a costume. I knew what shapes worked with my body, but I still didn’t know MY STYLE.
By now, Raisa was five years old—and feisty. One afternoon, we were walking through the thrift store, and she begged me to buy her a button-down shirt and a necktie.
The moment we got home, she put on that shirt and tie, looked in the mirror—and took her own breath away.
She ran across the dining room shouting, “MAMA, MAMA! LOOK HOW FAST I CAN RUN!”
Then she leapt into the air and yelled, “MAMA, MAMA! LOOK HOW MUCH HIGHER I CAN JUMP WHEN I’M WEARING CLOTHES ON THE OUTSIDE THAT FEEL LIKE ME ON THE INSIDE!”
And it hit me. The missing piece was INSIDE OUT CONGRUENCY.

The Work
I Do Now
I don’t teach women how to dress for compliments. I teach them how to dress for congruence.
I don’t offer makeovers, style rules, or one-size-fits-all checklists. What I offer is a reclamation. A way back into your body, your voice, your truth.
The work I do now lives at the intersection of style, somatics, and self-sovereignty. Getting dressed isn’t (just) about looking good. It’s about FEELING CONNECTED–– to your sensations, your needs, your aliveness, your you-ness. It’s about using your closet as a place to practice boundaries, build capacity, and make choices that reflect who you are—not who the world expects you to be.
This is where we stop performing and start listening. Where we stop chasing approval and start trusting ourselves. Where we stop dressing to be less—and start dressing to be more full of ourselves. This is where we begin.

Where do you want to start?
There are a few ways to step into this work—whether you're ready to go deep,
dip a toe, or dance somewhere in between.
