When Life Gets Hard, Come Back to This


Listen Later

If you’re going through a difficult time right now, this episode is for you.

In this honest and grounding solo episode, Kat shares a powerful realisation from her own recent challenges: when life feels overwhelming, it’s about coming back to the basics.

We often search for big solutions to complex problems. But the truth? The foundations of being human - sleep, movement, fuel, and mindset - are what help us navigate the hardest moments.

This episode is your reminder that you don’t need to fix everything today. You just need to take control of what you can control.

  • When life feels out of control, focus on what you can control: your habits, energy, and time
  • We often turn to short-term coping mechanisms (like alcohol), but they can make things harder long-term
  • The “101 of being human” is what keeps you grounded during tough times
  • You don’t need to solve the whole problem - just stabilise yourself first
  • Small, consistent habits create structure, clarity, and resilience

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 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.
