Are you a mid-life woman struggling to find the confidence to look and feel your best? Learn why it is essential for women of all ages to seek out professional help in order to develop the skills needed to dress with confidence.

Today we are diving into a topic that needs to be discussed: Why is it that seeking help to navigate through life seems to be taboo after graduating from high school or college?

Let me set the stage for you. When we were younger, we had teachers and coaches to guide us, teach us, and help us develop the skills and knowledge we needed to succeed. But once we finished college, it seems we are on our own. We are expected to be experts in everything from cooking to fashion, to even adulting as a whole.

And let's be honest, just because we get dressed every day doesn't mean we know how to create outfits that are best for us. But we think we should know, we think there's something wrong with us when we don't. But let's shift that mindset, shall we?

Fashion is an art, just like cooking, painting, and architecture - it takes time to develop the skills and knowledge to truly master it. Even doctors practice medicine with the skills they learned at school, and let's not forget, we were taught how to put our arm through clothes, use snaps and buttons, but not how to style ourselves.

We all have to eat every day, and preparing meals for ourselves and others is an essential part of life. But have you ever considered that cooking is also an art? It requires a deep understanding of ingredients, techniques, and flavors. So why is seeking the help of a chef or cooking classes seen as a weakness, when it is really an investment in developing a valuable skill set?

The same goes for fashion and style. We should not feel ashamed or embarrassed to seek the help of professionals, or even friends who have a natural flair for fashion. Don't limit yourself to a limited view of what style is, and instead, let yourself be open to new methods of expression and creativity.

So let's end this podcast with a reminder: it's okay to ask for help, it's okay to not know everything, and it's okay to invest in yourself at any age. Life is too short to not indulge in the things that bring us joy and help us express ourselves fully. Keep slaying, my midlife ladies, and stay stylish!
