TANNER GUZY | The Power of Presence
I think everyone knows that that we are all judged, to some degree, by our appearance and how we present ourselves. You don't have to like it and you don't have to think it's fair but it's the truth. And, yet, so many of us (myself included) overlook the importance our physical aesthetic when it comes to presenting ourselves well. My guest today is long-time friend, repeat guest, and men's style coach, Tanner Guzy. Today, Tanner and I talk about utilizing clothing as an extension of you, the Aesthetic Overton Window and how it impacts what we wear, why you need to avoid being one-dimensional in the way you present yourself, why dressing well isn't at all about suits and skinny jeans, and, ultimately, how you can garner influence by improving your presence. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: The portrayal of style and fashion in pop culture We have made heroes out of the court jesters Social conditioning has influenced men's attitude toward fashion Appearance matters when leading others You can be both the warrior and the intellectual Make small tweaks instead of taking it to the extreme Your appearance should mirror your capabilities Don't let your appearance undermine your credibility How to start making changes Find a style and brand that works and stick with it How do you know when you look good?
