Today, we’re diving into the often-overlooked power of personal style, and how what we wear can become a catalyst for confidence, visibility, and leadership.In countless conversations with women at different stages of their careers, I’ve realised that style isn’t a superficial extra or something “nice to have when there’s time.” It’s a practical, embodied way of honouring who we are, how we want to feel, and how we choose to show up in rooms that weren’t always designed with us in mind.In this episode, I’m joined by my Watch Her Lead co-CEO Elaine Champion and Watch Her Lead Academy guest expert Amanda Leigh Wong, a Hong Kong–based personal stylist whose work goes far beyond clothes and trends. Together, we explore how style can be a judgment-free tool for self-expression, a bridge between how you feel on the inside and how you’re seen on the outside, and a surprisingly powerful lever for executive presence and personal branding.We’ll talk about the difference between fashion and style, how clothes can either drain your energy or fill your cup, and why embracing your unique way of dressing can help you step into rooms, onto stages, and into opportunities with more ease and self-trust. You’ll hear real stories, from TEDx stages to everyday wardrobes, about what becomes possible when women stop hiding and start letting themselves be seen.Whilst Elaine and I created Watch Her Lead specifically for women working, living, and leading in Asia, if you’re based overseas you can still tune into this conversation to learn how to use style as a tool to support your leadership, your career, and the life you want to live on your own terms.For those of you in Hong Kong, Amanda is a guest expert in Watch Her Lead Academy and will be joining the kick off in person event in January.
