Can Personal Style Be An Effective Tool For Positive Wellbeing?
First and foremost, Natasha Diskin is a married mum of 2 and has amazing friends, who all contribute to a meaningful, quality life. She was born in the Congo, West Africa, then lived in France and moved to the UK at a very young age. She speaks fluent French, Lingala and English.
T
his has given her passion to adapt to different scenarios. She trained as a mental health nurse and now is a cognitive behavioural therapist in private practice. She loves to help people grow and build confidence. Her style journey began in 2016. After 15 years of wearing clothes that did not fit her body shape, she would go shopping for hours and come back empty handed. Her wardrobe was uninspiring. Her style unobtainable, stuck in a rut, wearing clothes that didn’t represent who she was or flatter her body shape. After having a baby, she made a commitment to improve herself. Focusing on the clothes already in her wardrobe. She lost the clothes that did not make her feel good and kept what she actually liked to wear, creating new looks, taking better care of herself, her wellbeing and starting to notice how to improve her personal style. At the time, Natasha’s Mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer and was on palliative care. Style became her lifeline. She would spend hours researching and experimenting different style personalities. A welcomed distraction from the pain of losing her mum.
After a lot of self - reflection, research and determination she realised that she could be stylish without wasting time and money. She just needed to invest in herself and realise she was worth the effort. Style has given her inner strength and confidence. Through painful trips to the hospital to be by mum’s side and through the miscarriage of her twins. When she is dressed on point in keeping with her Signature Style she feels invincible, strong and can do anything. 190
