Motherhood reshapes everything: Your time, your body, your identity, and often the way you show up in the world. In this episode of The Sparkle Project, Emily sits down with personal stylist and founder of Shop the City, Sahra Brandt, for an honest conversation about personal style as a form of self-care, identity reclamation, and confidence for modern moms.

Together, they explore why getting dressed can feel so hard after kids, how the mental load of motherhood impacts style, and why moms deserve permission to dress like themselves not just “like a mom.”

In this episode, we explore:

• Why moms often lose themselves through clothing after kids
• How personal style supports identity shifts in motherhood
• The impact of the pandemic on how moms relate to style
• Practical ways to dress with intention, even in busy seasons
• Why self-care through style is not selfish

This conversation is for any mom who feels disconnected from her reflection, overwhelmed by her closet, or ready to reconnect with who she is beneath the roles she carries.
