A short YouTube monologue by Lori Harder arguing that dressing for oneself is a form of self-care that alters personal energy and outward outcomes. Through a personal anecdote—moving from pajamas/no makeup to dressing up—Harder reports feeling transformed and observing audience growth and higher-quality clients after changing her presentation.
If you put yourself together and you feel incredible, you have a different energy. And if people think it's silly, then they haven't even tapped into the power of self care. Dressing for yourself. It's a whole mindset. It's so crazy. I was looking back at some of my podcasts seven, eight years ago. I did not wear any makeup. I was in my pajamas. Literally, like hair in a high pony. Which great. So glad I had the confidence to do that. But if I was really being honest with myself, I didn't feel good sitting there. I really started getting dress, doing my hair, putting on some makeup. I feel transformed. And in full transparency, my audience started growing. I started attracting a better client. You do feel different within yourself.
