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":"How Kitchen Discos Build Confidence","slug":"how-kitchen-discos-build-confidence","published_at":"2026-02-16T21:23:51+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216/how-kitchen-discos-build-confidence","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/f7919dc3ca9ec7d02da1faa9a29ea289077456bda6e528b8e653b4b87b095929/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiIwYzk5YTljYS0zYTc5LTQ5NjktYTc4OC0wMzEwNmVhYjM1YTkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NWMyM2Y4NWM0NTE2MjFkOThhOGFjNDEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjk5MzhhZThmODliNzEwYTYzMjkyNzU1L2thdC10aG9ybmVzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTItMTZfXzIyLTIzLTUyLm1wMyJ9.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/f7919dc3ca9ec7d02da1faa9a29ea289077456bda6e528b8e653b4b87b095929/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiIwYzk5YTljYS0zYTc5LTQ5NjktYTc4OC0wMzEwNmVhYjM1YTkiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NWMyM2Y4NWM0NTE2MjFkOThhOGFjNDEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjk5MzhhZThmODliNzEwYTYzMjkyNzU1L2thdC10aG9ybmVzLXN0dWRpby1jb21wb3Nlci0yMDI2LTItMTZfXzIyLTIzLTUyLm1wMyJ9.mp3","summary":"In this episode, Kat is joined by Bella - a rising talent whose energy “jumps off the page” on LinkedIn and into real life. Together, they unpack the small habits that quietly build confidence, protect mental health, and shift your day from autopilot to intentional. Bella shares how Atomic Habits introduced her to habit stacking, why music became her mood-reset tool during high-rejection cold-calling days, and how her current “kitchen disco party” habit (3–5 minutes while the kettle boils) sets her up for better focus and energy. They also explore boundaries with social media (and why scrolling can feel like a trance), how to change your mindset by changing what you consume, and the powerful ripple effect of small daily choices - at home, at work, and inside teams. Bella opens up about her work at Purple Story - a people-first business that improves performance by developing leaders and culture and the team habits and values that shape confidence and growth. ABOUT THE GUEST Bella Hacking is a Business Development Executive at Purple Story. She works in leadership and culture development at Purple Story, helping people and organisations grow through better communication and self-awareness. Coming from a hospitality background, she’s deeply interested in the habits, mindsets, and small daily choices that shape how we show up at work and in life.
