I had this habit of always brushing my teeth before going to interviews. I use to think that no one wants to work with someone with bad breath. Now even though most interviews are at least initially on zoom I keep brushing my teeth before or it affects my confidence.

No shade. Anything that gives you mental clarity/calm is totally worthwhile! I work remotely and will dress up nicely down to the shoes when I have a really big presentation, even though obviously no one will see 75% of the outfit. Helps me feel more comfortable in my own skin.
