About This Podcast

Busy Doing Well is the podcast for people who want to live and work in a way that prioritises their wellbeing, their energy, and their quality of life, even when life is busy, and without needing a complete lifestyle overhaul. In a world that fuels chronic stress and an always-on culture, this show is about doing things differently: working with stress so that you are in full control of your time and energy, building realistic, healthy habits that boost your wellbeing and performance levels, and creating a mindset and lifestyle that supports you... instead of one that drains you or leads to burnout. Hosted by wellbeing and performance coach Kate Horwood, each episode brings honest conversations, down-to-earth advice, practical tools, and fresh ways of thinking about stress, success, health, and performance. So there’s less chasing your tail and running on empty, and more showing up as your healthiest, best self, at work and in life.
