Burnout, anxiety, stress is 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 wellbeing with one small habit change.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-16T02:31:32.026894+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216"},"episode":{"title":"Food Fear to Food Joy: Reimagining Pasta","slug":"food-fear-to-food-joy-reimagining-pasta","published_at":"2026-01-13T11:51:56+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216/food-fear-to-food-joy-reimagining-pasta","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/5637107a6e48413aee8b5b418f57aaba9c6a2eb70994d5c4e58bc1b120a86b16/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiJhZjViZTlhZi1lNzhhLTQ5OGItOWI3My01MWRjMzk3OTI2MTkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NWMyM2Y4NWM0NTE2MjFkOThhOGFjNDEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjk2NjNhMjM1NTM5MzI3YzczNjA1OTMwL2thdC10aG9ybmVzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTEtMTNfXzEzLTI3LTE1Lm1wMyJ9.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/5637107a6e48413aee8b5b418f57aaba9c6a2eb70994d5c4e58bc1b120a86b16/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiJhZjViZTlhZi1lNzhhLTQ5OGItOWI3My01MWRjMzk3OTI2MTkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NWMyM2Y4NWM0NTE2MjFkOThhOGFjNDEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjk2NjNhMjM1NTM5MzI3YzczNjA1OTMwL2thdC10aG9ybmVzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTEtMTNfXzEzLTI3LTE1Lm1wMyJ9.mp3","summary":"In this episode of The Positive Habits Podcast , Kat is joined by Imogen, co-founder of The Northern Pasta Company, for an honest conversation about food, mental wellbeing, and performance. Imogen shares how living on a small Croatian island during the pandemic transformed her relationship with food and inspired her to create a pasta company rooted in quality, joy, and connection. Together, Kat and Imogen explore how modern food culture, ultra-processed foods, and diet myths impact our energy, mood, and ability to perform at work. They discuss why food shouldn’t be rushed, feared, or guilt-filled and how small, positive habits around eating and cooking can lead to better focus, resilience, and wellbeing. In this episode, we cover: Food, mental health, and performance Breaking free from diet culture and food shame Why pasta (yes, pasta!) can be good for you The power of simple food rituals and shared meals Small habits that help you feel better every day 🎧 Tune in for a refreshing reminder that how we eat shapes how we live. ABOUT THE GUEST Imogen Royall is the co-founder of Northern Pasta Co. and the creative force behind its mission to reimagine pasta as something nourishing, joyful and deeply connected to land and people. Inspired by time spent living in Croatia and a growing fascination with British-grown heritage grains, Imogen set out to create pasta rooted in flavour, sustainability and care. Imogen’s relationship with food was shaped early on by complexity. She dropped out of university and spent much of her youth navigating complex PTSD and a difficult relationship with eating, where food became a source of fear and control rather than pleasure. Over time, that fear transformed into fascination and then grew into love. From this experience came a belief that st…","meta_description":"In this episode of The Positive Habits Podcast , Kat is joined by Imogen, co-founder of The Northern Pasta Company, for an honest conversation about food,…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1957,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216/episodes/food-fear-to-food-joy-reimagining-pasta/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216/food-fear-to-food-joy-reimagining-pasta.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
