Love From the Inside Out

What Your Closet Reveals About Self-Love and Identity

Susan Kricun Season 1 Episode 5

What’s really hanging in your closet—and holding you back? In this episode of Love From the Inside Out, Susan explores why our clothes carry far more than fabric. They hold our identities, old stories, and even the way we see ourselves.

From pajamas and caftans to pulled-together confidence, you’ll hear:

  • The psychology of “enclothed cognition” and how what you wear shapes your mood and mindset
  • Why we hold onto clothes that no longer fit—and how to let them go with compassion
  • The surprising power of “dopamine dressing” to lift your energy and self-image
  • How to stop comparing yourself to cultural icons and embrace your own body with grace
  • Simple practices to choose clothes that align with who you are now, not who you used to be

Along the way, Susan shares personal stories, pop culture reflections (hello, Carrie Bradshaw), and a heartfelt tribute to her late friend Andrea Evans, who embodied what it means to love from the inside out.

✨ If your closet feels more like a collection of old stories than a celebration of your true self, this episode will inspire you to shift—from self-criticism to self-love, from clutter to clarity, from holding on to finally letting go.
