Remix Your Style in Midlife with Gail Scott
Rediscovering Confidence and Style in Midlife with Gail Scott
In this episode of Gen X Remix, host Tabatha Jones, The Corporate Escape Sherpa™, sits down with Gail Scott, personal wardrobe stylist and champion for midlife women ready to reconnect with their confidence and authenticity.
Gail shares her own midlife career pivot and how it led her to help women feel powerful again through intentional wardrobe choices, color analysis, and modernized makeup techniques. Together, Gail and Tabatha unpack why investing in yourself isn’t vanity — it’s self-respect — and how small shifts in style can have a massive impact on confidence, presence, and energy.
From closet editing and shopping smarter to avoiding common midlife makeup mistakes, this conversation reframes style as a tool for reinvention. Gail reminds listeners that midlife isn’t a time to fade into the background — it’s an invitation to step fully into your best, most authentic self.
