Beauty and Becoming
Beauty and Becoming is a sanctuary for women who are ready to stop fixing themselves and start meeting themselves.
Hosted by Coco — licensed esthetician, Reiki practitioner, certified Ayurvedic health instructor, and intuitive catalyst with over twenty years in the beauty industry — this show explores beauty not as something to apply or correct, but as something to remember. Something that has always lived within you, waiting to be revealed.
Each episode is an invitation to come home — to your body, to the essence of your unique beauty, and to the wholeness that was never actually missing.
We talk about holistic self-care as a devotional practice, beauty as a threshold to the Divine, and the real, honest, sometimes messy process of becoming who you actually are.
Beauty isn't something we apply. It's something we awaken.
New episodes every week. Come as you are.

95. Self-Care with the Seasons: The Energy of May Asks... Who do you think you are? | With Carly Whorton
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Carly Whorton brings her astrological expertise in a practical and grounded way, and we weave together my own intuitive practices, and our combined love of self-care to help guide you into stepping into your full agency and thrive in harmony with nature.
We explore how re-framing astrology as an energetic weather forecast can transform your daily experience, helping you surf life's inevitable waves rather than be crushed, swept away, or overwhelmed by the tides.
Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, this episode is perfect for those looking to discover practical insights to navigate emotional storms, deepen self-love, and step into your true agency right now.
We break down powerful concepts like the wounded healer, post-traumatic growth, and the profound impact of claiming your unique identity.
Carly generously offers a tool, she is calling the BBV (Brilliance, Blind spots, Values) to help you answer the question: Who do I think I am. These frameworks are not just abstract ideas— this goes far beyond mindset. You will walk away from this episode with tools to expand your self-awareness, resilience, and capacity for abundance.
We discuss how self-worth, boundaries, and clear communication—especially with yourself—are the keys to unlocking your next level.
Turn chaos into cosmic opportunity.
Become a co-creator of your own life, aligned with your most powerful and authentic Self.

A note: Any book links you find here are through my Bookshop.org shelf. If you purchase through them, I receive a small commission — at no extra cost to you — and a portion also goes to support independent bookstores rather than a mega-retailer. It felt like a small, aligned way to keep sharing what I'm reading.
Thank you for being here in this Self-Care Sanctuary!
