It's not about being dressed up.

It's about being dressed in clothes that feel like you and you're comfortable and confident in.

Hi, this is Monica Packer and you're listening to About Progress, where we are about

progress made practical.

We have all had that experience of standing in our closet and surveying our wardrobe and feeling

like we have nothing to wear.

But the truth often is it's not the clothes. It's how we feel in them.

Bodies change. This is something I wish that I had learned from a really young age. I wish somebody had sat me down and told me, Monica, your body is going to change not just every day of your life, but every week, month, and year. It will never

be the same every single day. I think if I had known that, then I wouldn't have struggled as

much when my wardrobe no longer fit my body, but even more so how my body no longer felt like it fit my life.

When our closets no longer match our bodies or our lifestyles, even our values, and how we see

ourselves, that's why it can feel like we have nothing to wear.

Today's guest wants to help change that daily conundrum for you so you can

rediscover your style and know how to dress yourself as your body changes because your body

will change. I speak with Angela Foster, a stylist who will help unpack the emotional and

practical layers underneath women's

relationships with style. We talk about perfectionism, body changes, trends, confidence,

motherhood, and why so many women feel disconnected from getting dressed. What I loved about

this conversation is that it's really not about the fashion, although there's a lot of great fashion tips here.

It's really about identity.

It's about learning to trust yourself again.

It's about dressing for your real life instead of who you think you are supposed to be.
