The Secrets to a Confident Wardrobe with Darshan Gress

The Secrets to a Confident Wardrobe with Darshan Gress

Author: Desiree Simone March 15, 2026 Duration: 59:50

In this episode of Growth on the Rocks, I sit down with celebrity stylist and costume designer Darshan Gress — a 25+ year industry veteran who has styled talent for Project RunwayTop Chef, and Netflix hits like Sugar Rush and Nailed It!, plus MTV's VMAs and major ad campaigns. She knows firsthand how powerful clothing can be as a tool for transformation.


But this conversation goes way beyond fashion. We dig into how to audit your closet without the overwhelm, how to rediscover your personal style when life has pulled you in every direction, and why so many high-achieving women are walking around in clothes that no longer reflect who they've become. Darshan breaks down the art of dressing authentically — not for trends or other people's expectations — but as a real expression of your identity and your next level.

Desiree Simone blends her expertise as a personal development and brand coach with a refreshingly honest approach in Growth on the Rocks. Each episode feels like a candid conversation with a trusted friend, one that isn't afraid to explore the messy, real-world application of self-improvement principles. You'll hear discussions that weave together practical mindset strategies, insights on navigating personal and professional relationships, and the ongoing journey of building a life that feels authentic. True to its name, this podcast doesn't present growth as a sterile, textbook process; instead, Desiree often lightens the mood, making space for laughter and the occasional libation as she delves into topics like love, self-discovery, and building a brand that aligns with your core values. The result is an engaging mix of education and relatable storytelling, perfect for anyone who wants to reflect on their own path while feeling genuinely accompanied. Tune in for a podcast that proves working on yourself can be both deeply meaningful and surprisingly enjoyable.
