The Intersection of Style, Psychology and Spirituality with Maria DiLorenzo

Welcome to a beautiful conversation with the particularly gifted orator and generous spirit, 

Maria DiLorenzo. Maria owns MFD style, a Boston based wardrobe consulting business. She lends her expertise in the intersection of style, psychology and spirituality. Maria's intuitive approach supports clients to find their authentic signature style, and use it to leverage more self loving beliefs. 

In this conversation, you’ll learn of Maria’s profound approach to style and wardrobe consultation. Maria shares her own journey and personal story of how we discovered a love for fashion while window-shopping with her mother. Maria also learned the hard but seminal lesson of spirituality and style as she dressed for her father’s funeral. Join us for this delightful conversation and hear about the fun adventure Kate had when she welcomed Maria into her closet.

Some of the highlights you’ll hear will include:

“A huge piece of my work is building that trust and having people feel more at ease and sort of just just Yeah, more accustomed to the experience as opposed to feeling, you know, nervous or anxious.”

“My mom really ignited something in me about the appreciation and sort of the aesthetic of fashion that was never about necessarily consuming or purchasing or having it - it was just about appreciating it for its own beauty. And, I think that was also something that got ignited for me when I started.”

On discovering the intersection of style, psychology and spirituality at her father’s funeral:

“I think I just got that little touch of grace, like you can do this, you can show up and do this really hard thing. And that wardrobe choice which sounds so silly in such a simple thing. It's like the lightbulb went off for me that I could not only could wardrobe choices, help me do this hard thing, but it made me connect with my own self value, and worth and love.”

“...now you're exposing someone to their body, right, and sort of how their relationship is with their body and their interpretation. And in that experience…whether it's internal, it's been external that has been imprinted on them. All the messages come out. And those experiences about how I look,  how I feel in this, what people say about me i -  there's so much that's wrapped up in our wardrobe choices and how we feel about our bodies and how we interpret that back out to the world.”

“Instead of saying…I have these crow's feet on my eyes, I really should get Botox. Instead saying, your eyes sparkle, you have the most beautiful blue, they look like the ocean. Being able to help reframe how people interpret their bodies. And I'm not here to feed a bunch of BS. It's about helping them really see what I see, and reinterpret that information in a way that they might take it in.”
