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":"Your Kids Are Watching: Become the Role Model They Deserve","slug":"your-kids-are-watching-become-the-role-model-they-deserve","published_at":"2025-05-20T00:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216/your-kids-are-watching-become-the-role-model-they-deserve","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-positive-habits-podcast-6951216","url":"https://omny.fm/shows/the-positive-habits-podcast/052-tphp","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/5b252b755f07f1623382d849d4c4e3a91b4f62132761403fbbb2865953e47c35/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI3MGE5NzIzMC1iZGQ4LTQxMTEtODA1OC1lMmY4ODY0NGQwM2UiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiI4YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2NWMyM2Y4NWM0NTE2MjFkOThhOGFjNDEiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvaW1wb3J0cy9wb2RjYXN0cy84YjBlZTM0YS0yNTk0LTQ2MTgtYTUxMi1jZGJhMmQwYjNmMjEvZXBpc29kZXMvNzBhOTcyMzAtYmRkOC00MTExLTgwNTgtZTJmODg2NDRkMDNlL1VTVkw2NjkxNjQ0MTQyLm1wMyJ9.mp3","summary":"Kat talks with Allen Johnson who shares his tough love approach to breaking unhealthy cycles, making sustainable lifestyle changes and being a positive role model for children. He shares his personal story of overcoming family challenges and gives practical advice on movement, accountability and raising your standards as a parent.
