Hey there! You are listening to the Lazy Genius Podcast. I'm Kendra Adachi and I'm here

to help you be a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don't.

Today is episode 280, How to Find Your Personal Style. A couple of weeks ago I put up a very

unofficial poll on Instagram asking what clothing-related problem was your biggest challenge

and finding your own personal style one out. This might feel like a problem no one else has,

but just to kick this episode off, let me assure you that it is not a singular problem that you

struggle with that most people already have figured out. In fact, I think it's maybe bigger than

even I realized. So that's what we're going to talk about today, How to Find Your Personal Style.

Now there are a lot of avenues we could take here. You should have seen my whiteboard

trying to map it all out. There is a lot, there's a lot of stuff and because there's a lot,

we're going to cover a lot today. But next week we're going to continue the conversation and talk

about actually getting dressed and kind of the daily decision of our clothes. But today,

I'm going to share five quick encouragement on how to see your style and then we're going to dive

into a few practical things you can do to start small and figuring out what it is. Now the very

first thing that's very important to say is I am not an expert at all, at all. I am just a person

who has practiced and is still learning what my personal style is, but I am an expert at applying

lazy genius principles to different situations and there are so many at work here. So I hope that

you will find the structure helpful. So first, let's walk through the five perspectives I want you

to consider when thinking about your personal style. Number one, your body is good. Your body is good.

We're going to do a separate episode, a little ways down the road about how to navigate a body

that is changing because that happens to all of us, often many times, over our adult lives,

but almost certainly every person listening struggles at some point with their bodies.
