Strong Bodies and Beautiful Minds

The Journey to Better Health

• Kate talks about turning her passion for fitness into a career.
• She switched to a vegan lifestyle and plant-based nutrition to advocate for animals.
• The journey is not a straight line. Sometimes you end up going backwards and question yourself whether you can still do it.

Staying Motivated on the Path to Fitness

• It’s important to have self-compassion and come from a place of working with your body as a team. 
• Motivation comes from being able to align actions with your values and beliefs.
• Self-awareness is needed to constantly check and ask whether things are still working out.
• Know that in time, with all your experiences and growth, you will be a different person.
• What’s helpful in the past may not be helpful today.
• It’s important to ask the question, “How’s that working for you?”
• You could ask that question for every facet of your life.

The Healthification Podcast As A Tool for Health Education

• Kate’s definition of health has evolved and for her, health involves the individual, the community, and the environment.
• Kate is concerned about sustainability in terms of individual fitness, nutrition, and the community, so that people can keep being healthy for the rest of their lives.
• The relationship with the environment is the missing piece to the conversation about health.

Developing Awareness of Sustainability

• The journey to sustainability can be overwhelming. 
• Whatever your reason for having a lifestyle change, don’t set the bar too high.
• She recommends making everything simple, easy, fun, and non-restricting. 
• To avoid being overwhelmed, she suggests telling people what is the number one, most important step.

Conscious Decisions Lead to Stronger Bodies

• Admitting the lack of discipline is the first step towards being successful.
• To make conscious decisions, become self-aware of the things that have tripped you up in the past and planning for those situations.
• You have the choice to ask for what you want. What you feed your body is 100% your responsibility.
• Doing simple things such as meal preparation or exploring the local market can cut down your risk of making bad food choices. 
• Simple habits deliver results and the results compound over time.

The Starting Point to Good Health and Beautiful Mind

• The starting point is your why, your reason and goals for choosing this.
• Ask yourself whether the result is worth the actions you need to take consistently.
• Build your identity belief that you are a person that exercises so that you’ll set aside time for that.
• Do temptation bundling. Bundle a habit you want to do with a habit you have to do. 
• The way you reframe your mindset about exercise is important.
