We are facing the greatest global pandemic of all time. Burnout, anxiety, stress is at an all time high. People are the greatest asset of an organisation. The better people look after themselves, the better they perform in all areas of life - both at work and home. Every single tiny choice we make during the day is shaping our lives, directly impacting how we feel and experience life. After getting the biggest wake up call of losing everything in my life in 2016 I had no choice but to face my habits and make a change. The changes at first seemed so insignificant that I didn't believe they would make a difference. BUT they did. The Positive Habits Podcast is for people who want to live a better life, with higher energy levels, less stress, better relationships and ultimately to supercharge their performance in all areas of life. I'm on a mission to help people improve their wellbeing with one small habit change.

From Overwhelmed to Marathon Runner: Nathan’s Habit Journey
Today, Kat speaks with Nathan, a chemistry teacher from York, about his inspiring journey from unhealthy habits and self-doubt to running marathons and transforming his life through the power of routine. Nathan shares how small, consistent changes in diet, exercise, and mindset helped him overcome barriers, improve his well-being, and inspire those around him.
During the episode, he shares dozens of practical tips on kick-starting your transformation, staying motivated, understanding what foods are truly healthy and incorporating them into your diet.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Try getting up early. For, Nathan, that one change made developing the positive habits he needed to complete his transformation, far easier.
Learn about nutrition. Acquiring that knowledge, a little bit each day, doesn´t take long. You soon learn to recognise junk food and hidden calories so you can avoid eating them.
Learn to cook and teach your kids too. When you do, you regain full awareness and control of what is going into your body.
Meal prepping makes it much easier to eat healthily. At first cooking for a couple of hours one day a week will feel hard. But it actually saves you time, reduces stress, your food bills and the temptation to eat junk.
Running for both Kat and Nathan has been life changing and provides the exercise they need. Yet, both of them hated running. Until, that is, they tried a different approach that made it easy. That approach is shared during the episode.
BEST MOMENTS
"He dreaded ever seeing anybody that he knew, because he felt so uncomfortable in his skin."
“It's not difficult to be in a calorie deficit, but it's very easy not to be. “
"It comes down to two things - what you put in your body and how much you move.”

ABOUT THE HOST
Kat started her career as a teacher, before moving into Tech where she worked in different executive roles within teaching and consulting working across the globe, both in the public and private sector. Despite appearing 'successful' on the outside, she paid a heavy ‘life’ price. In 2016, her whole world collapsed. The reason? The compound effect of years of unhealthy and toxic habits that destroyed her health, relationship and career. She suffered a severe breakdown and lost everything. In the middle of this she got headhunted for her first CEO role. She rebuilt herself by changing just one small habit and built a series of positive habits which has transformed her professional and personal performance, resulting in becoming the healthiest and happiest version of herself.
She is a positive habits international keynote speaker and teacher, giving talks and delivering high impact programmes to organisations across the globe.
