Summary

It may not seem like a big deal in the eyes of the world, but when you lose your sense of style you also feel like you lose your sense of self. Speaker, Julie Allen gets real about why so many women feel disconnected from their wardrobes, how style is deeply tied to identity, and why rediscovering your look is about so much more than clothes. If you’ve ever wondered how to dress for the person you are now (not just who you used to be), or felt stuck between trends and expectations, this conversation is for you—no matter your age, body, or season of life.

0:52.8	Sometimes I share my outfit to Instagram because it's been something I've been trying to explore more for fun. But I often get messages from women who are like, what do you do if you hate shopping or you don't know what your style is? And I'm like, I don't know. I don't know. Follow Julie. But that's who we're talking to today. It's the people who are feeling stuck with, hey, I lost my style. Can we begin with, is this a common thing? And if so, why do you think it is?
