Anna Rova came to personal styling from a place I don’t hear very often. She built a seven-figure dating coaching business, closed it down, and then decided to become a personal stylist, even though she had never styled friends and family or really seen herself as the stylish one.

Anna grew up in Moldova thinking style was something other people were just born with, usually women from rich families who somehow knew how to dress well. As she built her first business and started earning more, she began to notice the gap between how she saw herself as a successful woman and how she was actually showing up. That was the beginning of realizing style was not some mythical thing she could never access. It was a skill she could learn.

In this episode of The Six Figure Personal Stylist Podcast, Anna and I talk about what happened when she moved from dating coach to personal stylist, why her past business success did not automatically make this business easy, and how she is using style as a tool for identity work, not just better outfits.
