All About Your Coach

I'm Kat Alder

I can help you find and feel more confident about your personal style. Look great and enjoy getting dressed every day!

Iconic fashion designer Diane Von Furstenberg believed that “personal style is accepting who you are.”

I agree. And I know just how true that is because I experienced it firsthand. Growing up in the Sandhills of Nebraska, I loved everything about clothes and high fashion. But I thought I was different – and not in a good way. So I dressed to fit in instead of like I really wanted to and in a way that would reflect the real me.  

You can guess how well that worked out.

Years later, I was talking to my therapist about my ongoing lack of self-confidence and dressing to fit in. She said, “I don’t think how you dress is a true expression of who you really are.”

At first, I felt offended. What was wrong with capri khakis and a blue polo? But after some soul-searching, I realized she was right. Khakis and a polo shirt might be a great expression of someone, somewhere. But that someone wasn’t me.  

My Journey

One polo at a time, I began my journey to become my authentic self. I didn’t yet know that true change begins on the inside. But once my outside looked more like my inside felt, I was able to turn to the other examples of inauthenticity in my life.

My journey has taken me from wearing a false but socially acceptable mask to showing up as who I really am. I am in alignment with my authentic self, from my actions to my outfits. Gone are the khakis and polos. I dress how I want – even though I live in the middle of nowhere. And I know that if I can do it, you can too.

Maybe you’re feeling like you’ve never expressed – or even met – the real you. Perhaps you’ve just gone through a major life transition and realized that how you dress doesn’t fit you anymore. Could be you long to reconnect with who you really are and are looking for that first step to take.
