The Colour me Kate Podcast - who are you, really?
Having recently been diagnosed with a Functioning Disorder (which led to the temporary shut down of my business for three months), I've become even more fascinated by the 'real' person behind the 'socially masked' person.
A Functioning Disorder is an umbrella term for a group of symptoms in the body that stem from the emotional processing in our brains. In other words, if you screw the lid too tightly on all the feelings for too many decades, the body breaks out in complaint.
My diagnosis, subsequent research and therapy has piqued my interest in digging down into the core of who other people really are. Because my theory is that understanding others helps us to understand ourselves.
Helloo! I'm Kate Bird, a Personal Colour & Stylist at Colour me Kate, located in the Perth Hills of Western Australia. And for more than a decade I've helped women to feel good about how they look on the outside - and now I'm having a good old dig around to discover who they are on the inside.

The Colour me Kate Podcast - who are you, really?
Therapist, Kim Holland, 57, jokes that self-aware menopausal women can be a bit like vintage cars: well made; experienced; resilient, tough and very, very beautiful.
Like me, Kim Holland strongly believes that society needs to start looking at women in menopause-and-midlife, differently.
As a Counsellor, Somatic Therapist and Creative Arts Therapist, Kim looks upon menopause as being much more than just a list of negative, physical symptoms.
She sees it as being an exciting transitional time of our lives that can give us opportunity to become strong, empowered and liberated women.
It’s a time when we can give ourselves permission to be released from all the limitations and conditioning we’ve experienced during the first half of our lives.
In her Somatic Therapy work, Kim believes that the traumas of our life-experiences can hold themselves in our body and that, with some work, we can often heal ourselves by letting go of these experiences and playfully embrace the second half of our lives.
This is Kim’s story.
