“I’ll be honest, when I first started podcasting, I didn’t care what I looked like—because no one could see me. Now? People aren’t just listening anymore. They’re watching.”

When I started my first podcast in 2019, it was audio-only. No one cared what I wore, whether my hair was a mess, or if I’d just rolled out of bed. Fast forward to today, and video is unavoidable in podcasting. Like it or not, your audience wants to see you as much as they want to hear you.

In this episode of Smarter Podcasting, I share everything I’ve learned about looking good on camera. From choosing colors and fabrics that don’t make you disappear into the background, to avoiding sweat patches, noisy jewelry, or that polyester shirt that catches every bit of light—these are practical tips that will make you look polished without losing comfort.

I’ll cover:

Why video is no longer optional in podcasting

• What to wear (and what to absolutely avoid) on camera
• How to match your look to your podcast’s brand and set
• The surprising role of comfort in confidence
• Hair, makeup, and accessories—what matters, what doesn’t
• Extra tricks for posture, glasses glare, and staying relaxed

At the end of the day, how you look isn’t just vanity—it’s part of your storytelling. When you feel good and confident, your audience feels it too.
