A private online social club dedicated to high-achieving women who want to learn more about style, generating wealth, leadership, and leaving a legacy
We do STYLE.
We create WEALTH.
We lead with GUMPTION.
We leave LEGACIES.
Our Mission & Vision
We envision a world where women can earn more, take initiative, show courage, be determined, and leave a legacy all while stylishly dressed.
Legacy builders write their own personal stories, rewrite their families' stories, and change the direction of an entire generation.
This is the world we want to create and live in.
Which is why we created the four pillars of Modern Charm: Style, Wealth, Gumption, & Legacy.
The Four Pillars Inside of Modern Charm School TM
Style
Style is the first floor of the Modern Charm School. We teach you to get dressed and ready to face the world outside of your closet. The style tools we teach apply to every pillar in an interconnected way.
Wealth
When you allow yourself to show up as yourself with your style, that confidence transfers to financial literacy, wealth building, and your unique version of a luxe life.
Gumption
The woman who owns her style and lives her luxe life has a secret ingredient: gumption. Gumption is a beautiful blend of initiative, determination, and courage. Learn to cultivate all three.
Legacy
When you show up feeling like yourself, living your version of a luxe life, you model Gumption for all of the women around you. You rewrite your story and change the history of the women who come after you.
the motto
CONFIDENT WOMEN LEAVE LEGACIES
At The Modern Charm School we believe in updating traditional charm school subjects so that they reflect the hearts, minds, and desires of modern high-achieving women.
We believe:
Beauty is for all women of every size, shape, color, and age.
Elocution is about how to advocate for yourself and those around you
Poise is rising up and standing tall in the face of adversity
Pluck and Gumption is about leading with initiative, determination, and courage
Style is personal and a conduit to the heart and mind of each woman

hi i'm judith gaton
about me
I craved more than the usual conversations about style and wealth, so I created a space for women like me AND YOU.
I am a smart cookie (Doctorate, Master Certifications, Author, Fashion Design Degree…) My clients are smart cookies. They are diverse, hilarious, and are so much more than fruit shapes. (You are not a damn apple or pear!)
That’s why I created Modern Charm School. So the smart cookies could talk about style in an elevated way, AND about the things that really matter like building a legacy and having more than enough.
That is how the FOUR pillars came to be.
It was important to me that Modern Charm School have a framework that lead with style, but was so much more. In the words of my client, Dr. Matthea “It’s women that are trying to achieve bigger things and frumpy is holding them back. …This is the room where you are doing bigger things and you need to figure out the Style Part.
So here is to all of our Stylish beginnings… Join us.
here's what it's like to work with Judith
