Confidently You: CBT for Colour & Style Confidence

Episode 1: Welcome to Confidently You

Hello and welcome to Confidently You: CBT for Colour & Style Confidence—the podcast that helps you step into your personal style with confidence, using the power of colour, self-expression, and a little bit of psychology.

 I’m Deirdre Coyne, a trainee colour analyst and CBT therapist, and I’m passionate about helping strong women feel their best, inside and out.
 
 

If you’ve ever stood in front of your wardrobe feeling uninspired, second-guessed your style choices, or felt like the woman you see in the mirror doesn’t quite match how you *want* to feel—then you’re in the right place.
 
 

Why This Podcast?

So why am I combining colour, style, and psychology? 

Well, confidence isn’t just about what you wear—it’s about how you *see* yourself. 

I’ve seen so many women hesitate to embrace their personal style because of old beliefs, fears of standing out, or thoughts like 'I’m too old to wear that' or ‘I’ll wait until I lose the weight’.

But here’s the truth: your style is one of the most powerful tools for self-expression and self-belief. And with the right mindset shifts, you can start dressing in a way that feels effortless, authentic, and *empowering*.

What You Can Expect

Each week, I’ll be sharing insights into:
 - The psychology behind colour and how it affects confidence.
 - How to let go of outdated style 'rules' and embrace what works for you.
 - Practical ways to dress for the *future* you, not just who you’ve been in the past.
 - How to challenge the thoughts that hold you back from expressing yourself fully.
 
 

I’ll also be giving you simple, actionable tips so you can start applying these ideas straight away.

Who This Is For

This podcast is for strong, capable women who want to feel more at home in their bodies and their clothes. 

Maybe you’re going through a big life change, maybe you’ve lost touch with your style, or maybe you just want to feel *bolder* in how you present yourself. 

Wherever you are on your journey, this is your space to explore, experiment, and build confidence—one outfit at a time.

Your First Step

Before we wrap up, I want to leave you with one small challenge: Think about a time when you felt truly confident in what you were wearing. What was it about that outfit? Was it the colour? The fit? The way you carried yourself?

Take a moment to reconnect with that feeling—and if you’re up for it, wear something this week that brings back that sense of confidence.
