Sharp dressedThis week Andy Grant is joined by Ty Cutner, founder of the Well Dressed Academy, to discuss the social and psychological benefits of being a well-dressed man. He’ll share how changing his image, changed his life.

If you don’t present the best, you can’t perform your best.

Five years ago, Ty Cutner was working a job he hated, approaching 30, wasting his nights on Xbox, was a new father with a 2-year-old son and then found out his girlfriend was cheating on him. He took an honest look in the mirror and asked: “how did I let myself get to this point?”

To begin changing his life, he changed his image – how he dressed.

  • Have you always been into fashion and well dressed?
  • Tell me about your old life?
  • What prompted you to change?
  • What’s your new life like?
