The Sharp Upgrade

A few months ago, NYC based Love & Relationship coach, Jimmy Allen, reached out to me for a Sharp Upgrade. His business was really taking off and he was ready to take it to the next level with an image overhaul and wanted to create a signature look to up-level his brand. 

We kicked it off with a wardrobe review session over Zoom. While reviewing his closet I asked the question, “are these clothes a reflection of who you are and what you’re up to?” Jimmy quickly said, “wow, I am realizing my closet is boring as hell and does not match my 2.0 self.” I replied, “We need to go bold. The type of coach I see you as is big and bold, you need to stand out just like you coach your clients to attract their dream relationships!”

Next step, I introduced him to the fitness and nutrition coach on my team, Tim Liu of Tim Liu Fitness. At first, Jimmy was worried about pushing his body in the gym because of a series of back injuries that left him in daily aches and pains. But after his virtual assessment, Tim shared his knowledge and expertise about injuries and proper food intake. Jimmy discovered he was eating well but was overeating and that was a major problem. So, they got to work and in just 3 months, Jimmy dropped almost 30 pounds!

During that time, his confidence started to grow and he was feeling more self assured to show off his newly transformed body. He sent me a progress picture and I immediately wrote back, “We need to talk. It’s time to do a photoshoot to show off your transformation.”

During our consultation for the photoshoot, a phrase Jimmy often used came to mind: “Crazy juicy love”. This became our theme for the shoot and everything we selected from the cherry lapel pin down to the cherry blossom socks was purposely selected to match his brand message. 

I started with what Jimmy already had in his wardrobe and added additional pieces to up-level each outfit. I was super detailed with each piece and coached him to step out of his comfort zone. At one point, Jimmy was triggered by a flower shirt I picked out and expressed he didn’t want to look like one of those dudes on the cruise ship trying to look cool. Haha, but after putting the pieces together and trying on his new looks, he felt bold and confident AF. He was ready for the shoot!

The day of the photoshoot, Aleks instantly made Jimmy feel at ease and everything just flowed from there. We had so much fun and the spontaneity that was created during the shoot was flawless. After sharing his new pics, people are constantly complimenting Jimmy about his new image and style. Because of his Sharp Upgrade experience, Jimmy has fully stepped into his next level self and he’s attracting new opportunities left and right from dream dates to dream clients. He was even featured as one of the top 10 male dating coaches for 2021!

Make a Scene.

He sat there grinning like the cat that ate the canary. Was it because he was wearing canary yellow pants? Possibly. A wave of happiness washed over him. He was living Art in real-time. An artist of disruption.  Bathed in a sea of black winter coats on the Manhattan bound W train, even his tan 3/4 London Fog rain coat stood out. He was beside himself, giddy, and all he wanted was to shout and share it with everyone. Having not enough time to procure coffee, saner minds still prevailed as he found an alternative rush of adrenaline brought on by the moment, and the groove of Marvin Gaye.

Wingtips, Wooden Heels, & the Wardrobe

I'm 15 years old and marveling at the broguing on my new wingtips. As instructed, I went outside to scuff up the leather souls as to add traction and not fall on my face later that evening. As a young doubler in my teens, I was headed off to some sort of jazz gig. As I walked back stage with bass clarinet and bari sax in hand, I couldn't help but love the sound of the click of the wooden heel and the stage floor. Click clack, click clack.

Facing You with Jeff Karly

An evening in Dubai during the height of the pandemic, this night was one to remember. Here I am riding on a camel heading to a dinner in the desert. The air was still and the sky was calm. The food and the hookah was hittin’ too (translated was very good). The night was going really good, but my mind was occupied and for some reason, this time it was noticeable to the people I was with. Towards the end of the night, my friend and I, a successful entrepreneur, and philanthropist were talking about the state of the world and our place in it. I guess my answers weren’t really inspiring to her enough, so she asked me an important question – "Why don't you let people really know you, like really? I’ve worn the proverbial “I’m good mask” for so long, secretly, I wasn’t comfortable revealing it, mainly to myself. The separation of the creator from the man.
