I love the name of your Substack/content focus! 😍 I’m curious—did using ChatGPT change your perception of what you ‘needed’ to bring versus what you might have instinctively packed? It’s so interesting how tools like this can challenge our usual habits and help us prioritize. I loved seeing the breakdown of what you actually wore versus what stayed in the suitcase—it’s such a great reminder of how our habits shift when we’re in a different environment. It’s funny how some pieces become our go-tos, even when we pack others with good intentions!

Thank you so much! I'm such a big fan of your podcast!!! It definitely did because it grounded my vision of 'vacation me' in the reality of 'day-to-day getting dressed me'. I'm not sure I would have edited out as many nice-to-have items with the ChatGPT suggestions. I've also tested a lot of closet management app styling tools and vacation packing tools and the outfits always feel a little too fantastical and removed from how I actually dress - specifically when it comes to shoes. Aesthetically I would love to be someone who can wear heels to explore a new city but in reality I need comfortable and cute outfits that pair with sneakers or sandals with foot support. I'm trying out more styling suggestions this Fall with ChatGPT by seeding the prompt with items I already own and am excited to share the results!

Thanks so much for the kind words—I’m so glad you enjoy the podcast! 😊 My unintended break has been a little longer than expected, LOL, but I have a new episode coming next week! It’s really interesting to hear how ChatGPT helped you find that balance. I TOTALLY get what you mean about shoes and traveling. I was just in NYC for Climate Week. I wore walking shoes but brought cute shoes to change into, but I rarely actually changed because I just didn't want to be bothered, ha! I love that you’re trying out new styling options this fall with a focus on items you already own. That's such a great way to keep things practical and make the most of what you have! Looking forward to seeing how it goes! 😊
