Show notes

What if getting dressed could actually help you show up with more courage?

In this episode of Showing Up Scared, Jess talks with House of Color CEO Ally Van Iten about her journey into color and style, eventually becoming CEO.  

Jess also shares how having her colors done three years ago became far more significant than a wardrobe decision. During a season of deep grief and family crisis, exploring color and personal style helped her feel equipped to show up as herself again.

Together, Jess and Ally talk about why enjoying beauty isn’t frivolous, how creativity reflects the heart of a creative God, and why “not worrying about what we wear” doesn’t mean we have to stop caring about beauty and style.

If you’ve ever felt afraid to be seen, this conversation is an invitation to step into the fullness of who God made you to be.
