In 2012, Kate was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and for the most part, doctors weren’t particularly optimistic about how she could improve her quality of life. Kate was living in the no-man’s land of having received a diagnosis, but nothing was relieving her symptoms. It took her a few years to find out what the combination of things would be that that would get her system working again. In 2015, Kate began training for her first triathlon, following her fist success a few months, later she had set her sights on doing an half-Ironman! Training for Kate was really intense, and she often found it frustrating, because she felt sick and fatigued more often than other athletes, it was also taking her longer to recovery. Nonetheless, she persisted, and for Kate her goal of finishing a half-Ironman was her way of saying to the world that she was in charge of her body. Kate made the decision that it was all about her mindset and deciding to make the conscious choices to practice courage even after setbacks. During this podcast, Kate will teach you how to change your old patterns of self-doubt and create new courageous habits, which is turn will help you lead a more courageous life. Kate will share more detail about the powerful principles of habit-formation, psychological courage and emotional resilience.

Oftentimes we try to deal with fear in three ways: (1) avoid or ignore, (2) please or placate it, (3) attack it.When we start to feel fear we usually resort to a habit that we've learned to try to cope for a short-term reward, whatever reduces stress. These habits are perfectionism, people pleasing, pessimism, and self-sabotage.With the work that Kate does, she helps you to rework how you respond to events that happen. Instead of a fear-based habit that gets you short term results, she helps her clients choose a courage-based habit that gets them long term rewards.
