Hey there, Empowered & Out Listeners!

What if your most hidden self… was actually sacred?

In this powerful episode of Empowered & Out, I’m joined by the radiant Maria Elena Pamies Lafuente—a transformational life coach and energy healer helping crossdressers, especially cis-het men, heal shame and step into self-love through feminine expression 💖

We’re talking about:

🔮 What it really means to feel safe—emotionally, not just visibly

👠 Why confidence isn’t enough, and how wholeness changes everything

🔥 The surprising root of shame in crossdressing—and how to release it

🪞 How Maria’s viral video reshaped her mission (and reached millions)

🏫 A peek into Girl School—a sacred space for the hidden masculine

💬 And the unforgettable moment a client said, “I don’t feel broken anymore…”

This one is healing, raw, and GORGEOUS.

✨ Ready to come home to yourself?
