The Visibility Shift with Ellie Steinbrink
Welcome to The Visibility Shift, the podcast where style becomes your most powerful strategy for being seen, standing out, and leading boldly. I'm Ellie Steinbrink, stylist and personal brand coach, and if you've ever thought, "My style just isn't working anymore," take this as your sign. You're ready for your next level.
Instead of launching into a panicked shopping spree, what you really need is a strategy. A style strategy that reflects where you're headed, not who you used to be or who you think you need to be to fit in.
I'm here for the ambitious woman who's evolving. Maybe you're a founder, a speaker, a leader, or someone who's becoming more visible in your role. The opportunities are getting more exciting, the stages are getting bigger, but when you walk into your closet, you suddenly feel off, like you've outgrown it, like it represents a past version of you.
We go beyond outfits and dive into the real strategies that elevate your presence, so your outer image reflects your inner power. Style from the inside out. Self-leadership through style. What it takes to create a strategy that's unique to you without losing yourself along the way.
When your style aligns with your brand and your vision, everything shifts. You lead with more presence, you attract the right opportunities and clients, and you fully step into the woman you're becoming. Showing up as yourself is the most strategic thing you can do.
New episodes drop twice weekly. Ready to stop second-guessing and start showing up as the leader you are? Let's get visible.

Why You Still Haven’t Figured Out Your Style (and Why That’s Okay)
You’ve built a successful business. You’ve landed the clients and scored the speaking gigs. You’re a confident, capable, and resourceful woman. But staring into the closet in a panic before a big event or questioning if an outfit aligns with your brand is a common occurrence for many high-achieving women. So why does personal style still feel like something you should have figured out by now but haven’t?
In this episode of The Visibility Shift, you’ll discover why you have the belief that you should have figured out your style by now. I’ll share the deep-rooted beliefs that cause women to over-effort in their style, how shame and the “bootstrapper mentality” keep us stuck, and why more shopping doesn’t equal more alignment.
2:31 – How the bootstrapper mentality holds you back from gaining clarity
3:31 – Why style shame is real and widespread
4:45 – Why over-efforting may feel productive but doesn’t equal alignment

10:07 – Example of how over-efforting taxes you and why bringing in the right support is critical
13:57 – Next steps and your permission slip to step into authentic alignment with your style
