Dress for Success Greater London's Client of the Year, Runa Begum, recently talked to Red Magazine in an interview highlighting successful business women and the lessons they learned as they grew into their current positions of success.


Runa acknowledges Dress for Success as a catalyst in the process of becoming a more confident woman, resulting in her acquiring her dream career and radio host opportunity. She now hosts her own mental health radio show, but maintains a polished appearance at work:


The listeners can't see what I’m wearing, but I never forget the lessons I learned: a polished appearance is all about how it makes me feel. Now I go to work feeling in control and empowered. Looking professional even makes my voice sound stronger.

Runa continues,


If I hadn't made so many mistakes with my professional appearance, I would never have discovered Dress For Success. The tips they gave me changed my career and led to my dream career. I'm now a Service Advisory Consultant at The Royal College of Psychiatry and found the confidence to pursue an opportunity to become a radio show host.
