For Arleny Abreu, life is always in motion. As the Founder and CEO of The Woman of Intuition LLC, entrepreneur, content creator, intuitive, motivational speaker, and wellness advocate, she moves seamlessly between business, creativity, wellness, and the moments in between. Her style reflects that same energy: feminine, glamorous, sophisticated, and effortlessly her own.
But for Arleny, looking good should never mean feeling uncomfortable. From long days on her feet to events, travel, and everyday moments, she believes the right footwear should move with you, not hold you back. In this edition of the Wydr Collective, Arleny shares her approach to personal style, why comfort has become part of her definition of luxury, and how finding the right fit can change the way you move through life.

Can you tell us a bit about yourself and what your day-to-day life looks like?
My name is Arleny Abreu, and I’m the Founder and CEO of The Woman of Intuition LLC. I’m an entrepreneur, content creator, intuitive, motivational speaker, and wellness advocate. My life is very multifaceted. One day I might be creating content, another day I’m meeting with a brand, hosting an event or workshop, working with clients, or focusing on my own wellness. Because I’m constantly moving, I’ve learned that what I wear has to make me feel confident while also supporting my lifestyle.
-
How would you describe your personal style, and how do you express it through your footwear choices?
I would describe my style as feminine, glamorous, sophisticated, and intuitive. I love pieces that feel luxurious but still allow my personality to come through. Shoes are a huge part of that. They can completely transform the energy of an outfit. I want my footwear to make a statement, but I also want to feel comfortable and confident wearing it.
-
What does a typical day in your life look like, and how does your footwear play a role in it?
There really isn’t one typical day! I can go from working out or taking care of myself in the morning to creating content, attending meetings, working with clients, and going to events. Sometimes I’m on my feet for hours. My shoes have to keep up with me. I love fashion, but I’ve reached a point where I don’t believe I should have to sacrifice comfort for style.
-
What were some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced with finding footwear that fits in the past?
One of the biggest challenges has been finding shoes that actually feel as good as they look. Sometimes a shoe is beautiful, but the fit doesn’t work for your foot or you can’t comfortably wear it for an extended period of time. I think a lot of women understand that frustration. Fashion should be inclusive, and we deserve options that accommodate different bodies and different feet without sacrificing style.
-
Do you have any memorable stories or experiences tied to the footwear you’ve worn over the years?
Absolutely. There have definitely been moments where I chose the beautiful shoe instead of the comfortable shoe and regretted it halfway through an event! Those experiences taught me that confidence isn’t just about how something looks. If you’re uncomfortable, eventually it affects how you walk, how you carry yourself, and even how much you enjoy the moment.
-
What are the top three things you look for when choosing a pair of shoes?
My top three are comfort, quality, and style. I want something beautiful and elevated, but I also want to know that I can actually live my life in it.
-
How did you first come across Wydr Studios, and what made you decide to give it a try?
I first discovered Wydr Studios through Instagram What immediately caught my attention was the brand’s approach to combining fashion with a more thoughtful and inclusive fit. I loved the idea of finding footwear that could make women feel stylish without asking them to compromise on comfort.
-
What stood out to you about our footwear compared to other brands you’ve tried?
What stood out to me was the combination of design, comfort, and attention to fit. The shoes still feel fashionable and intentional. I don’t feel like I’m choosing a “comfort shoe.” I’m choosing a beautiful shoe that happens to understand what women actually need.
-
How has wearing our shoes impacted your daily life or activities?
It gives me more freedom to focus on what I’m doing instead of constantly thinking about my feet. Whether I’m creating content, attending an event, meeting people, or simply spending a long day on the go, comfortable footwear makes a difference. When I feel good physically, I’m able to be much more present.
-
What are some of your favorite activities, and how does your choice of footwear support these?
I love creating content, attending fashion and wellness events, traveling, working out, hosting experiences, and spending time discovering beautiful places. My lifestyle requires versatility. I need shoes that can complement my personal style but also support a woman who is genuinely moving throughout her day.
-
What role does comfort and functionality play in your footwear decisions?
A huge role. I’ve learned that comfort is part of luxury. Something isn’t truly luxurious to me if I can’t enjoy wearing it. I want to walk confidently, stand comfortably, and be present without wondering when I can take my shoes off.
-
What advice would you give to someone who struggles with finding the right pair of shoes?
Don’t assume that your feet are the problem. Find brands that actually design with different women and different needs in mind. Know your measurements, pay attention to fit and construction, and don’t settle for being uncomfortable just because something looks beautiful. You deserve both.
-
How does the footwear you choose reflect your values, such as sustainability, quality, or fashion?
I’m becoming much more intentional about what I bring into my life. I appreciate quality, thoughtful design, versatility, and pieces that I genuinely want to wear. For me, fashion isn’t simply about having more—it’s about choosing pieces that make sense for who I am and how I live.
-
In what ways do you see footwear as more than just an accessory—perhaps as a reflection of identity or a means to tell your story?
Fashion is storytelling. The way we dress can communicate something before we ever say a word. Shoes are especially powerful because they literally carry us through different chapters of our lives. For me, my footwear reflects femininity, confidence, evolution, and the woman I’m continuing to become.
-
What would you say to someone considering trying Wydr Studios for the first time?
I would say give yourself the opportunity to experience footwear that considers both your style and your comfort. You shouldn’t have to choose between feeling fashionable and feeling good. When you find a shoe that gives you both, you notice the difference.
