The woman on the radio is a success specialist of some sort and is talking about “upping your game” by dressing for success. “If you don’t care,” she says, “good for you,” but success is based largely on how you look.
That’s likely (partly) true. It’s also sad, and bad advice for personal and spiritual well being.
Nobody wants slobs in the workplace, but as long as we all play the game without questioning the rules, the game won’t change, and we’ll continue to hire and elect and otherwise manufacture our human environment based on looks rather than substance.

The utter condescension “experts” project on superficial matters (fashion, sports, investing, entertainment, politics, sex, etc) is enough to drive one mad. It’s no wonder we stop analyzing it after a while.
