Michele Charles Gustafson
I help accomplished women turn their presence into the credibility that gets them seen, trusted and remembered.
Since 1998, I've built confidence-driven leaders as the founder of Hue And Style®, a Certified Image Consultant, a Certified Master Life Coach, and a bestselling author of Show Up Confident. I help capable women align presence, communication and personal brand so the outside matches the substance inside.
I've brought this to a Fortune 500 CEO summit in San Francisco, a Women in Medicine conference in Houston, and stages from Porsche Center to credit union leadership teams. Nothing new happens without the confidence to be seen doing it.
Image work isn't about clothes, it's psychology: the split-second read people take on your credibility before you speak. My processes find where that read breaks down.
Ask me about:
- Why your go-to outfit or story might be working against you
- Building a brand that reads as credible before you speak
- The psychology behind why someone buys into you
- Turning presence into an asset that gets you remembered
Services
Best for: entrepreneurs, professionals and leaders whose image or communication isn't matching the level they operate at. In one hour, we'll uncover what's quietly costing you trust or credibility, and build a plan to fix it. Bring me a moment where you're saying to yourself: "I'm getting passed over for opportunities I'm qualified for." "People don't take me as seriously as I'd like." "I want to look and feel as confident as my resume looks."
Best for: women who feel stuck or out of alignment and want one clear next step, not a full makeover. Using my Confidence Compass, we'll map your Gifts, Talents, Values and Virtues against where you feel disconnected and craft your 4-Word purpose that starts a shift to make you feel like yourself again. Bring me a stuck spot where you're quietly saying: "I don't recognize myself in this season." "I know something needs to change, but not what." "I'm heading into a big transition."
