Stylist Elisa Ellis shares how what you wear can shift how you lead. Learn how to feel more confident, aligned, and respected—without changing who you are.

Last week we talked about what’s really behind employee disengagement—and how to fix it.

This week, we're diving into something leaders rarely talk about but feel every day: how your clothes impact your confidence and authority at work.

If you’ve ever second-guessed your outfit before a big meeting, felt like you were “faking it” in a blazer, or wondered if what you wear really makes a difference in how your team sees you—this episode is your permission slip to rethink it all.

Wardrobe stylist Elisa Ellis joins me to talk about the mindset and strategy behind dressing with confidence, and why what you wear isn’t about fashion—it’s about energy, presence, and alignment. Whether you're stepping into your first leadership role or simply want to show up more intentionally, Elisa breaks it down with warmth and zero judgment.

Key Takeaways:

What enclothed cognition is—and how it shapes your confidence and focus as a leader
Why your “power outfit” doesn’t have to be a blazer (or heels!) to command respect
How new managers can communicate dress expectations without becoming the “outfit police”
