Today on the Podcast, Guest Elsa Isaac:

If you've ever achieved the very thing you said you "wanted" — only to feel like you didn't belong — than this is the episode for you. Before you abandon ship or change industries all together ... listen to this episode.

The Power's in the Pivot:

So often, when we feel disconnected or drained, we think we need to completely change careers. Run away. Close up shop. I remember a coaching client saying recently, "I have this habit of wanting to blow my life up every time I feel this restless feeling. I love what I do. AND I hate what I do."

In truth, through working together, she realized she didn't crave a new career. She simply no longer wanted to do what she was doing with whom she'd been doing it. Once she shifted her focus, to be more aligned with her values and her vision, the work became fresh again. She found herself in the right place, at the right time, with the right people. No more swimming upstream.

Our Passion's in our People:

Life is not just about creating but connecting, contributing, celebrating.

"It's a lot to know that you're not alone in the world" and that "what's for me is for me." These, and so many more gems, come from the self-dubbed anti-fashion stylist (my longtime colleague turned dear new friend) Elsa Isaac, whose many successes are made all-the-more rewarding by the passionate people around her; our shared community of world-changing women.

Refusing to believe there’s only one standard of beauty, this east African-born stylist (with 14+ years experience dressing everyone from Marie Forleo to Lenny Kravitz; Katie Couric to Kris Carr) strives to empower all her clients to self-express their own individuality. To feel beautiful. Supported. Enough.

Whether revamping wardrobes, creating show-stopping ensembles, or helping to flatter every unique body shape and lifestyle — Elsa's behind-the-scenes story will help you style your life and business for the season and skin you're in.
