In the first episode of 2026, we're talking with author, speaker, and productivity expert, Amy Landino to challenge the idea that being “busy” means you’re doing it right.

Spoiler: it usually means the opposite.

This conversation breaks down why busy is a cop-out, how introverted entrepreneurs can reclaim control of their time, and what it actually looks like to operate like the CEO of your life—not an overworked employee of your own business.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why “busy” is blocking your personal brand and growth
• How to audit your time without shame or hustle culture
• How introverts can own their schedule with quiet authority
• What to stop doing in 2025 to create real momentum

In this episode of Not Nice, Clever, we’re getting into personal style, confidence, and the quiet power of first impressions with Celeste Moore, a globally certified master image consultant and celebrity stylist with decades of experience.

Celeste breaks down how style isn’t about trends, labels, or having a perfect closet. It’s about using what you wear as a tool—especially for introverted entrepreneurs who want their style to do some of the talking before they ever say a word.

We talk about:

• How to dress for impact without blowing your budget
• Why color matters more than you think
• Where most people go wrong when decluttering their closet
• How personal style can communicate confidence without forcing you to perform it

Whether you’re prepping for a big moment, building your personal brand, or just want your everyday outfits to reflect who you actually are, this episode feels like a mindset shift and a masterclass rolled into one.

Hit play to rethink your wardrobe, your confidence, and how to let your style speak for you.
