Human Up

The Vulnerability Of Expression Through Fashion and Creativity (with Antonio Smith)


Listen Later

How do you present yourself through your behaviors, words, and even fashion? Have you held back what is true and feels good to you in any of those three areas? If you have, I completely understand, having been influenced by so many cultural norms and perceptions that put pressure on me to blend in, rather than express myself.

Self-expression comes in many forms and in this episode we hit on what that means coming from the perspective of men in fashion and creativity.

-------------------------------------

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How Antonio started Seattle Gents
  • Building community for Seattle men
  • Identifying and sticking to why you're pursuing your creative projects rather than comparing yourself to others
  • Everyone is creative, you just have to train it like a muscle
  • Finding your own groove and style by unapologetically expressing your creativity
