From Wardrobe to Personal Brand: Style Tips for Confidence, Networking, and Success
“I think a soft skill is being judgment free too. You know, letting people know we all have our stories….I'm not judging you. I just want you to feel the best.” Tara Williams
How often do you look in your wardrobe and overthink? How often do you look at your clothes and have no idea what to wear or how to pair something together? Dressing for success or lounging around in your yoga pants?
We discuss the connection between personal style, confidence, and business success. Our guest shares how clothing is more than just fabric—it’s a tool for communication, self-expression, and empowerment. We explore the vulnerability that comes with letting someone into your personal space—whether it’s your closet or your self-perception and how soft skills play a role in navigating these interactions with empathy and care.
What we cover in this episode:
- Soft skills are essential when working in personal spaces, whether physical (like a closet) or emotional (like self-perception and confidence).
- First impressions matter—within seven seconds, people make 11 decisions about you, including whether they trust you.
- Style influences confidence and productivity, thanks to the psychological concept of "enclothed cognition," which links how we dress to how we feel and perform.
You’ll walk away with an exercise to define how we want to be perceived in the world, helping you dress with intention and authenticity.
