In this emotional and deeply honest episode of The Positive Habits Podcast, Kat talks with good friend Holly Meyers to talk life after divorce, rebuilding yourself, pushing through fear, and the power of community.
After ending a 15-year relationship and navigating the reality of starting over at nearly 40, Holly shares how stepping outside her comfort zone completely transformed her life -from joining Women Who PLNGE to sharing her story publicly online.
Together, Kat and Holly explore:
- Why vulnerability feels so uncomfortable
- The fear of starting again after a long-term relationship
- How community and connection can pull us through dark times
- Why routines and “anchors” matter during difficult seasons
- The pressure society puts on relationships and milestones
- Learning to rediscover yourself after heartbreak
- The healing power of cold water, shared challenge, and human connection
- Why growth only happens outside your comfort zone
This episode is a reminder that life can change in an instant.
If you’re feeling stuck, lonely, overwhelmed, or afraid to make a change, this conversation will remind you that you are not alone.
Sometimes the smallest step outside your comfort zone can completely change your life.

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.
