25. Embracing Authenticity + Uniqueness Through Style with Kaitlyn Steward

In this episode, I sat down with Kaitlyn Steward, a personal stylist and the founder of Hue & You Image Consulting, to talk about something that goes so much deeper than clothes—how style is directly connected to our sense of identity, self-worth, and how we show up in the world. Kaitlyn shared how being a big sister to four younger sisters helped shape her gift for helping others express themselves through style. We talked about the emotional layers of clothing, the difference between personal styling and image consulting, and why asking “How do you want people to feel when they're around you?” can completely shift how you get dressed and carry yourself. This conversation left me reflecting on my own relationship with style and reminded me that fashion isn’t about following trends—it’s about aligning with the version of you that feels most real. In this episode, we explore: * Kaitlyn’s journey into personal styling and image consulting * The emotional power of style and why it matters * How clothing can be a form of self-expression, safety, and confidence * What it really means to wear your truth * The deeper questions that guide personal presence and authenticity Connect with Kaitlyn: Follow her on Instagram: @hueandyou.ic [https://www.instagram.com/hueandyou.ic] Website: www.hueandyouic.com [https://hueandyouic.com/] Connect With Christina Guzmán www.instagram.com/selflovetonicpod [http://www.instagram.com/selflovetonicpod] www.selflovetonicpodcast.com [http://www.selflovetonicpodcast.com] christina@selflovetonic.com

24. Doomscroll Detox: Signs It's Time to Reduce Your Screen Time

In this episode, I’m opening up about something that’s been a personal struggle for years—and I know I’m not alone in it: being constantly plugged in. I’ve worked in marketing for over a decade, which means screen time has pretty much always been part of my daily life. But even outside of work, I’ve found myself stuck in endless scroll cycles, picking up my phone for no reason, and wondering why I feel so mentally drained all the time. If you’ve ever felt the same, this conversation is for you. We’ll talk about the real effects screen time has on our brains, our moods, our nervous systems, and even our relationships. I’ll share what I’ve learned, what I’m still working on, and the little red flags I’ve noticed when I’ve gone too far down the digital rabbit hole. In this episode, I talk about: • Why our brains are overwhelmed by screen time (it’s not just in your head) • How dopamine and constant notifications keep us hooked • The emotional cost of being “always on” • What it means when we can’t stop checking our phones—even during downtime • The signs your nervous system is begging for a break & the app I'm using that helped decrease my screen time on my phone by 80%.
