About this episode

Julianne Costigan discusses how personal style serves as a leadership strategy and its impact on confidence and influence.

Julianne Costigan is the Founder & CEO of Costigan — a styling and personal branding company built on one powerful idea: style isn’t about clothes, it’s a leadership strategy. Over the past 15 years, Julianne has styled more than 300 women across industries like law, medicine, tech, finance, and media. Her work reframes personal style as a tool for confidence, visibility, and influence — helping women (and men) show up with intention in every room they enter, not just on the big stages. In this episode, we explore the evolution of her business, the psychology of executive presence, early lessons that shaped her craft, and why everyday moments—not just high-stakes ones—define your personal brand.
