“If I can show you with your underwear drawer where we can make some changes in your thinking, we can apply that thinking to all the other areas of your life,” explains Judith Gaton, master certified life coach, personal stylist, lawyer, and author of How to Be A F*cking Lady, A Modern Guide to Being Charming and Fierce AF. Judith is also the founder of the Modern Charm School, a private online social club for high achieving women who want to learn more about style, generating wealth, leadership, and leaving a legacy. She shares how making even just small changes to your style can help you to regain your self-confidence.
Style is how you choose to show up in the world. When you don’t dress in a way that matches how you feel about yourself on the inside, you are likely to feel uncomfortable. By choosing to make time for yourself and practicing self-love through your style choices, you will feel more confident in your own skin. If you are nervous about how others will react to your new style, give yourself permission to play around with it at home in your closet. This will help you to learn what works and what doesn’t with very low stakes.
Why didn’t they tell us how to get ready or how important style is? How you dress makes a big difference in how you show up in the world. Instead of always putting your own needs last, show yourself self-love by taking time to get dressed in a way that makes you feel more like yourself.
Quotes:
• “Fashion maybe doesn't matter to your day-to-day life, but style, how you choose to show up to do your work in the world, to serve the people you serve, to love the people that you love, to be in the communities that you're in, yeah. That does matter, because human heuristics are always at play.” (6:00-6:17 | Judith)
• “I want my outsides to match how I feel about myself on the inside.” (7:14-7:16 | Judith)
• “Why didn't they tell us how to get ready? Why didn't they tell us how to shop for a good suit or a good bra? Why did nobody tell us how important this part would be? Because there's such an emphasis on just be smart. Just get the piece of paper. Just hit that next milestone in your business. Just X, Y, or Z. And then you can worry about that stuff. And it's like, no, no. How about we worry about that stuff now? Cause it's gonna affect how you show up for the rest of this.” (9:25-9:53 | Judith)
• “If I can show you with your underwear drawer where we can make some changes in your thinking, we can apply that thinking to all the other areas of your life.” (18:22-18:32 | Judith)
• “All of it's a learning process. If everything was always grandiose and wonderful when you put it on, you wouldn't learn anything about yourself.” (45:24-45:30 | Judith)
• “Play in your closet first. Failing there is such low stakes.” (45:55-45:58 | Judith)
