Speaking for Ourselves Vol 19: Stepping Forward with Boldness...Just saying 'Yes' - Speaking with Lucy Barrett, Style Coach

What does your outfit say about you today?
I don't know about you, but since lockdown my wardrobe has changed. All those zoom meetings got me thinking about which 'tops' to wear and less about how my overall 'look' was - cue smart blouses and comfortable trousers! (ok leggings!!)
Our clothes are a reflection of ourselves, our outlook and how we are feeling that day - but have you ever stopped to think about HOW we learn or develop our way of presenting ourselves? During Lockdown many of us had to rethink this - we also had to adjust yet again afterwards. The world of online Zoom calls has changed the way we work for ever...and for some of us, the way we dress ( for exactly the same job).
There are many more transitions that we go through in life, work is just one of them - age, family responsibilities, divorce, illness, parenthood...all have the potential to challenge how we are seen, or see ourselves. These 'life changes' bring about internal and social challenges which impact us - not just in terms of the changes themselves, but HOW well we adapt to them - and this, in turn, is often reflected in how we dress.
This is something my next guest and I spent time discussing.
In this episode I am speaking with Lucy Barrett - Style Coach™
We discuss the range of experiences she has had, living overseas, career challenges and being an 'ex-pat' in her own home country!...and how she came to unite her interest in human beings and our travels' through life, change and transition......into a thriving business...all through the medium of what we wear. Lucy is vibrant, fun and very enthusiastic. I loved our time together - she really got me rethinking the old adage 'we are what we wear'
Listen to the podcast. You won't be disappointed!!
...Now, to relook at exactly WHAT I have at the back of my wardrobe.......
