On this episode Kat talks about the power of a morning routine, what her old one was like compared to the one now that has unlocked so much potential.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There were 3 things I used to do every morning: 1. Snooze my alarm 4-6 times. 2. Pick up my smart phone and scroll through my emails and look at deadlines, thinking I was getting ready for the day ahead but was actually making me hyper-stressed. 3. Have some kind of caffeine (coffee/energy drink) to start the day.
My morning routine wasn’t getting me mentally and physically prepared for the day ahead. When I shifted, after my breakdown, into changing up how I went about my mornings, everything changed. I swapped this really unhealthy morning routine that was damaging my performance/mental health/wellbeing/long-term relationship/career prospects/everything, for small habits (starting with reading) that really powered me up.
Reading a few pages or consuming something positive for my brain (podcast/motivational video), because the brain is wired to think negatively in the morning, because when you start feeding your brain positivity you start feeling better, having more energy, thinking positive thoughts.
When you write your thoughts down (journalling) they start to lose power and you start to regain power over them.
BEST MOMENTS
“Snoozing your alarm is one of the most toxic habits you can ever have.”
“Checking my phone first thing in the morning was quietly, over a long period of time, sending me on a path to destruction.”
“Habits don’t just change your day, they change your week, your month, your year, they change your entire life.”
“Feed your brain positive food.”
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.
On this episode Kat is joined by Francesca McClory, who is killing it in her business in Future Cloud Accounting and who has been on the most incredible life journey, who talks about when you put your mind to something and believe you can do it, you really can.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
So many people stay stuck and don’t dare change something because of the unknown of what will be next. I’ve embraced that, I don’t want to stand still and be unhappy. My first marriage ended because I sensed something wasn’t right just weeks before the wedding. He admitted he was unsure he wanted to go through with it, if someone’s unsure about something weeks before you shouldn’t go through with it just to save face. It’s uncomfortable starting again, I was humiliated but I’m so much happier now.
I do little challenges with myself which is how I got into fitness training while running a business, because so many people told me I wouldn’t have time to do it. Training has helped me run a better business, even if it comes across as selfish, I’d rather make time to do the things that make me happy, otherwise what’s the point?
The stronger you get and the more you achieve through doing an activity, the more you look after your body, it makes you more confident about yourself and your abilities in your friendships and relationships. Unless I’m injured, I’m always doing something.
You have to have a balance on LinkedIn. To me it’s simple: You either share your solutions to people’s problems, share some motivation, but the more you help others the better, you won’t necessarily get something back – you shouldn’t do it for that – but just watch what happens.
BEST MOMENTS
“In order to do certain things in life you’ve got to get uncomfortable.”
“Fitness is absolutely key in life.”
“Comparison is good, to a point, for inspiration. But, if you’re spending too long looking into other people’s lives and feeling unhappy in your own, that’s where you’ve got to think ‘what am I doing?’”
“I became an accountant because I realised that everybody needs an accountant and I love businesses.”
Breaking Barriers: Sonia Murton on Leading Women in Construction
Épisode 4
lundi 1 juillet 2024 • Durée 40:43
In this episode Kat is joined by Sonia Murton, voted Top 100 women in Construction, she’s changing the game by doing things differently. Sonia shares her experience of divorce, the impact that had on work and home, and the most incredible twist.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Working with contractors, I’ve worked with all the different kinds of trades on site, everybody letting each other down, so I decided to create a business where I do self-delivery bringing people from different trades together to deliver 85% of on-site work.
The construction industry is massively male dominated. My top tier management is 75% women. I think we have a different perspective on things, we look at things differently.
I’m a strong and positive person. Getting divorced is a process that takes years, and it really knocks it out of you. I learned a lot from that divorce, but I wasn’t prepared for the emotional rollercoaster. It also had negative impacts on my family and everybody being disappointed, but it really knocked me emotionally.
You always think the grass is greener, but when you realise that this person is your true love and soul mate and the person you want to spend your life with, nobody else out there ticks the boxes. Sometimes you have to go through all that to realise that what you had was so brilliant and why the hell did we break up? Everything comes with age, and you can look back and learn from the mistakes. I’m happy that I went through it and it will never happen again.
BEST MOMENTS
“I do what I love every day, I do it will, and I like to make sure we all have great fun on the journey.” “We do building and construction with a feminine flair.” “We were doing to many things apart and not enough things together. Those that play together stay together.” “The piece of paper and the vows aren’t the glue for us, we know we’re meant to be together; we know we love each other dearly; we’ll do anything for each other.”
ABOUT THE GUEST
Sonia Murton is the Founder and Managing Director of Westbury FM, a specialist provider of property maintenance services to clients and facilities providers across central London and the home counties.
The Greatest Investment You Can Make
Épisode 3
lundi 1 juillet 2024 • Durée 09:28
In this episode, we delve into the paradox of modern life where discussions around wellbeing, mental health, and self-care are more prevalent than ever, yet stress and burnout are at an all-time high. We explore the disconnect between talking about self-care and actually implementing it, emphasising the importance of prioritising activities and relationships that rejuvenate us. Kat highlights how often we sacrifice our own needs, spending disproportionate amounts of time on tasks that drain us and focusing on others' needs over our own.
The conversation also touches on the significance of investing in oneself, whether it’s through gaining new knowledge, developing skills, or exploring fresh ideas. Our host shares personal insights on how dedicating resources to self-improvement has fostered personal growth in various aspects of life. By consistently allocating time and money towards personal development, whether for the mind, body, or professional life, one can achieve remarkable growth and wellbeing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
I feel like we talk about looking after ourselves, wellbeing, mental health more than ever before yet people are more stressed, overwhelmed and exhausted. That’s because there’s a big gap between talking about it and taking action.
We spend too little time on the things that give us energy and we enjoy, quality time with the people we love. We spend an imbalanced amount of time on things that don’t matter, things that steal our time and energy, and prioritising other people’s needs over our own.
I’ve learned over the years that investing in myself in terms gaining new skills, ideas, and knowledge that helps me to grow in different areas is SO important. You can grow so much as an individual when you invest in yourself. A lot of what I spend my money on each month is investing in myself, whether that’s my brain, body or business.
BEST MOMENTS
“I don’t think we view looking after ourselves as an investment in our mental and physical health, but that’s the narrative that needs to change.” “You can be the best version of yourself when you invest in it, in your body and your brain, for a few minutes, regularly.”“The first step in wanting to make a change is starting to notice something that you weren’t aware of.”
From Sacrifice to Success: Mark Clemmit's Career Secrets
Épisode 2
lundi 1 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:05:39
In this episode, Kat is joined by Mark Clemmit to talk about working with some of the biggest names and brands in football. In this episode, he reveals the first thing he does each morning that has fuelled his remarkable career success and discusses the significance of the little things and the power of being present.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
I like hearing people’s life stories. We’re all completely unique, none of the 8 billion people in the world have has the same genetics, upbringing, education, brilliant/terrible things that have happened to them, how they got to the other side. It’s always fascinated me. As much as football has always been my career, I’m not a technical obsessive, the thing for me is how it must feel to have 70,000 people tell you you’ve made the wrong decision. It gives you an appreciation of life as well.
I’ve been self-employed my entire life and I’ve always been big-picture-orientated, if there are sacrifices to be made in the short term, I’ll do them because I don’t want to have the gnawing feeling in the long term that I didn’t do the big picture option. It’s about residual gains: If I want to amess £10,000, it looks really daunting, but if I sacrifice the daily cost of a cup of coffee and put that in a jar then I’ll eventually get there.
In one of my coaching engagements with a client, I’ve devised a system of “must know, nice to know, let it go”, so if she’s squeezed for time there are certain items she absolutely has to tell her audience, the next tier would be good and enhancing to do, and then there’s stuff that could fill the story out but can be let go. This can be applied to your daily to-do list.
My performance is going to be affected by hunger, anger, loneliness, and tiredness. If you’re any of those things you’re not going to be the best version of yourself. I’m a late-to-bed person, but I do always try to get to sleep before midnight.
BEST MOMENTS
“I have a morning routine, but sometimes I have to compromise it. I could make my morning routine last 2 hours because I have a portfolio career which gives me flexibility.” “Quality lives don’t happen by accident we make them happen.”“You can apply Kaizen techniques to anything in your life from the mortgage, to exercise, to redecorating.”“We can’t have everything we want all the time, that’s not how the world works.”
The Morning Wake Up Call
Épisode 1
lundi 1 juillet 2024 • Durée 13:03
We are facing the greatest global pandemic of all time. Burnout, anxiety, and stress are 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 well-being with one small habit change.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
As a child, I remember the number 1 goal was getting to school, mornings were very stressful and as soon as you opened your eyes it was 100mph to get out of the door. Every day felt like rinse and repeat. As an adult we go through something similar; we wake up on autopilot, those who have children get them ready for school before getting ready for work themselves.
We’re in the middle of a global mental health pandemic but there are so many habits we have that are 100% shaping the way we feel and experience our lives, our energy levels, our mood, our ability to focus, our performance at work and home, how well we look after ourselves. All of this is linked to our habits. Most people’s daily habits are damaging to their mental health and ability to cope with life’s stresses.
Our phones have become our alarm clocks so it’s so easy to look at them within a nanosecond of opening your eyes and to create all that stress about the day ahead before you’ve even properly opened your eyes. The brain isn’t ready for that information yet.
The belief that the harder you work the more successful you’ll be is still so powerful and pertinent in society today. The challenge with that mentality and frame of mind is that it doesn’t take into account: At what cost?
Get A Home For Your Phone
Épisode 12
lundi 12 août 2024 • Durée 07:44
On this episode Kat talks about why your phone being out of your bedroom will be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When you think about the concept of a mobile phone, the idea is that we have this device that we can take anywhere with us. This also presents huge challenges. Every single time I ask the question “which habits are negatively impacting your energy/performance at work and home?” the answer is always related to the phone.
It’s becoming a huge issue. The 2023 Mental State of the World Report talks about one of the 3 main contributing factors to our mental health is our smartphones. In particular, the age at which young people are getting access to smartphones.
It’s become such an incredible tool for being able to stay in contact with the people we love and share memories, but there’s a dark side too. My excessive phone habits were a huge contributing factor to nearly having a heart attack in 2016.
The challenge with having mobile phones in our bedrooms is that we’re tempted to look at them which affects your mental wellbeing. The more people take action to create a home for their phones the better you sleep, the better your relationships are, the better your health is, the better your performance is at work and home.
BEST MOMENTS
“80% of people check their mobile phones within 15 minutes of opening their eyes.”
“How do you use your mobile phone? What kind of relationship do you have with them?
“We used to have other alarms before we had smartphones.”

Becoming Healthier, Happier, and More Productive with Lirette, HR Expert
Épisode 11
lundi 5 août 2024 • Durée 39:23
On this episode Kat is joined by Lirette Mill, an HR expert working in education, who shares her story of 7 stone weight loss and the number one positive habit that gets her in a really high performing state for the day ahead.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
With covid, a lot of organisations have shifted to hybrid flexibility, but the school environment doesn’t always allow for that. Sometimes getting work life balance may be working from home one day a week, and most schools can’t offer that. That means workloads can seem even more as you must be on site every day. How schools achieve that will really help members of staff with their wellbeing. We’re starting to work with school to see if they can think more strategically and out of the box with regards to this and aid recruitment and retention.
Being a female in a leader position with 2 small children, I’ve always worked full-time and have never thought about being part-time because I wonder if I could still be that leader of the division. We need to embrace flexibility in terms of leadership models and look at co-leadership models. That’s something I’d like to see so much more in the education sector.
One of my negative habits was I constantly felt guilt that I wasn’t spending enough time with my children. I’d work every hour I could and any spare hour I had I’d put into my children. The reason I say it’s a negative is that I didn’t take any time for myself to look after myself, I wouldn’t eat properly and would snack, and I’d reward us with food and treats, which is lovely but wasn’t doing my or my children’s health any favours.
I’ve lost 7 stone in the last 2.5 years after a few health scares and have started looking after myself by having a healthier lifestyle. What’s been lovely for me to realise is that my children enjoy coming running or training with me.
BEST MOMENTS
“All too often I hear that people don’t want to ask, they’re too frightened to ask for flexibility. If we can give them the confidence to do that and organisations embrace co-working, how fabulous would that be?”
“Putting music on and turning it up really makes you come alive and feel special.”
The Balancing Act: How One Habit Transformed Sally's Parenting & Career
Épisode 10
lundi 29 juillet 2024 • Durée 50:43
On this episode Kat is joined by Sally Pomphrey, Partnership Delivery Director at Global, the UK and Europe’s largest radio and outdoor company and a working mother of three who shares the single habit that boosts her performance at work whilst also making her a better parent.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
We put too much pressure on ourselves in this country. The media exposes people to things in the wrong way, and that puts pressure on people. We don’t self-promote people in the media very well in our country and that has an impact on people and in turn on their mental health. In Western society in general there’s so much going on, we’ve become an ‘upgrade society’ where every wants a better phone, car, partners, and that means we’re not satisfied with the little things.
There’s huge pressure to do a good job at work and being a good parent while keeping up a home and catching up with friends. Since the pandemic there’s more flexible working which should have made it slightly easier for people to juggle these pressures, but I’m not sure it has. When I was a working mum I worked 4 day and (mostly men) used to say that was part-time, well it wasn’t, no one gave you any less work and I often worked on my day off.
A negative habit I had with the kids was being on my phone and not switching off because my emails were on my phone. They’d tell me off for not listening. Now they have my time, I put my phone down and focus on them. Be present with people, whatever you’re doing and whoever they are.
Because there’s always so much to do you do all the ‘jobs’. I recent discovered I have no down time, I run to relax, but that isn’t relaxing for my body. Plus, I then think about all the other things that need to be done that aren’t the ‘jobs’, like sorting out the holiday. We’re all too busy and always switched on. Take time to sit on the sofa, laying in bed, or taking deep breaths in the morning or when you go to bed.
BEST MOMENTS
“Good habits help with everyone’s mental health.”
“No one tells you that when you have a child you’re going to spend the next 14 years worrying about World Book Day!”
Kick Exercise out of the Dictionary
Épisode 9
lundi 22 juillet 2024 • Durée 23:49
In this episode, Kat Thorne discusses the importance of reframing our perspective on 'exercise' as movement. She shares personal experiences and insights on how shifting our mindset from traditional views of exercise can lead to positive habit changes. Kat emphasises the power of committing to just 10 minutes of movement daily, highlighting the significant impact it can have on energy, mood, and overall wellbeing. Through anecdotes and practical advice, she encourages listeners to prioritise movement in their daily routines, focusing on enjoyment and consistency rather than duration or intensity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Exercise comes up in almost every single keynote or talk to a team that I do, the connotations attached to it, why we fight it so much and what we can do to change the way we view it. I think a lot of us have self-limiting beliefs that it has to be done a certain way that prevent us from the ultimate goal, which should be to move our bodies regularly.
Growing up I had so many negative experiences with exercise and so have many others. I made a massive shift a few years ago when I stopped thinking of exercise as a focus on my physical body.
I can guarantee you’ve said “I don’t have time for…” in the last 24 hours. How much time do you need for the exercise you ideally want to incorporate into your life? 30, 40, 60, 90 minutes? Where did you get the idea that exercise has to be an hour in the gym or a 30-minute run?
My number one habit is movement. I commit to moving my body every single day for a minimum of 10 minutes. When I first started moving my body and exercising regularly I realised that I didn’t enjoy going to the gym, I had a lot of fears around it, I thought it was difficult, I didn’t know what I was doing so I felt uncomfortable, I didn’t have a lot of time to spare, so I didn’t do anything. 10 minutes is better than 0 minutes.
BEST MOMENTS
“I’d replace the word ‘Exercise’ in the dictionary with ‘movement’.”
“Which habits positively affect your performance, how you feel? Exercise is (almost every time) one of the top answers.”
“Organisations are doing more than they’ve ever done before to help people with their mental health and wellbeing.”
