Does your image affect your confidence and success as a business owner? Today I’m diving into this fascinating topic with Nicky Hambleton-Jones - stylist, author, and former presenter of the iconic TV show 10 Years Younger. We’re exploring how what you wear and how you feel about ageing can influence not just how others see you, but how you show up in your business.
In this episode, Nicky shares why confidence - both inner and outer - is the true game-changer when it comes to projecting authority and building trust. We talk about why your personal style is more than just clothes, how to create a signature look that reflects your brand, and why embracing your age (and dressing in a way that feels good for you) can transform how you feel and how others respond to you.
We discuss the reality of running your own business, surviving the highs and lows, and the power of staying visible and true to yourself, no matter your age. If you’ve ever wondered whether your wardrobe or appearance is impacting your confidence and success, this conversation will inspire you to see style as a powerful tool - not a pressure.
We also talk about her brilliant new book, Bolder Not Older — a powerful, practical guide to feeling more confident in yourself and your work, no matter your age. It’s available now online and in all good bookshops, and it's a must-read if you're ready to stop playing small and start living more boldly.
✨ True confidence comes from alignment — when how you look reflects who you are and what you stand for.
