In this episode Katie discusses the mental impact of having rapid hair loss, how this affected her social and work life and the strategies she has learned from this.

Katie discusses how learning to accept her condition and ‘going bald’ has helped her feel empowered and made her an outspoken advocate for others living with alopecia.
