Bruce Pflaumer Pt 3: Transforming Lives Through Authentic Image

Good Life Stories

"This is about helping you to be your true, authentic self that's in there. Michelangelo used to always talk about how it's in the rock. Our job is to chisel it out." The Power of Personal Image - In this episode of Good Life Stories, host Tracy Crowley wraps up her conversation with Bruce Pflaumer, an image consultant with Michael Bruce Image Consulting. They delve into the profound impact of personal image and how it transcends the superficial. Bruce shares heartwarming and transformative stories of how helping clients with their image has changed their lives. "We tell clients. We always tell people, we're your biggest fan. Everyone needs a fan, but we're your biggest fan. We want you to do well in this process. We're going to help you through it, but you have to be willing to trust and to do the hard work, because it is hard work." From the common misconception that focusing on personal style is shallow, to the deep, authentic communication that true personal style can convey, Bruce provides insights that will make you rethink the power of your own image. He also discusses his unique ability to remember every item in his clients' wardrobes and how he uses his empathetic nature to understand what clients are truly seeking to express. "Image is not about size. It's not about age. It's not about anything like that. It's all about you. And we take care of all of it. Doesn't matter what size you are, doesn't matter how old you are, it's just what your goals are." Tracy and Bruce also touch on the importance of showing up as your true self, whether that's in a professional setting or a casual one. They explore the challenges and rewards of image consulting, including the emotional and psychological aspects that make this work so meaningful. Bruce also shares his favorite quote from Nelson Mandela, "I never lose. I either win or learn," and how this philosophy shapes his approach to both life and work. Tune in for an enlightening discussion on the essence of personal style, the importance of authentic self-expression, and the transformative power of a well-considered image.
