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.

109. Trusting the Unfolding & The Force of Tenderness

Today's episode feels incredibly sacred to me.
These birthday episodes have become something I never intended them to be…
They're love letters to my past and future selves.
They allow me to witness not only how much life can change in a year... but how faithfully our intentions continue unfolding, even when life takes us somewhere we never would have chosen ourselves.
A year ago, I couldn't have imagined what was waiting just beyond my birthday.
Within days, everything I thought I knew about my life began to change.
There was profound healing.
Profound loss.
Profound surrender.
And ultimately… a profound coming home to myself.
Today, I want to share what it's been like to look back on that journey from where I stand now, entering my 36th year of life.
We'll talk about intentions, trust, grief, spiritual practice, self-care, and the beauty of never truly knowing what miracles — or initiations — are waiting just around the corner... beyond the thresholds of our lives.
I'll also share why this birthday feels intertwined with another birth entirely: the evolution of this podcast from Self-Care Sermon into Beauty and Becoming.
I invite you to soften wherever this episode finds you now... and I invite you into this next chapter with me.
xxo, Coco
