In this episode of the Creator Method Podcast, Gary sits down with Julia Dobkine, founder of Agile Styling, celebrity color analyst, and one of the first creators to bring color analysis to social media. What started as a passion project during her corporate career turned into a thriving global styling brand trusted by celebrities, brands, and hundreds of thousands of followers. Julia opens up about the bold decision to leave her corporate job at 42 to pursue content creation and entrepreneurship full time. She shares how consistent storytelling helped her build authority online, land clients like Zooey Deschanel, and scale a brand that reaches millions across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. This conversation goes deep on the creator mindset: how to own your niche, why personal branding matters, and the real challenges of pivoting careers later in life. Julia also shares why understanding your personal color palette isn’t just about style, it’s a branding superpower for any creator who shows up on camera.
