Live Better With Natasha, brought to you by proud Mum, International Singer, Entrepreneur and Wellness Influencer Natasha Hamilton, is the podcast for anyone who is looking to expand the horizons of what wellness means to them, for those that are looking to heal, grow and feel on top of the world. 

Through this show we will be exploring what mental, physical and spiritual wellness means and via honest, deep and meaningful conversations with leaders, experts and people with incredible stories to share, this show will help you to figure out how you can live a better life. 

This show brings you the stories that need to be heard which will leave you feeling supported, happy, healthy and equip you with the knowledge and lessons to ensure you’re living your best life. 

This week’s guest is the one and only Dame Kelly Holmes. Kelly is probably best known as an olympic hero having won gold medals in the 800 metres and 1500 metres events at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. As well as competing at various world championships, Commonwealth Games and Olympic Games Kelly was also a member of the British Army and after retiring from athletics has become a global motivational speaker, published author and is a much loved, regular face on our screen. 

With all the above accolades it would be easy to think that Kelly is some sort of impenetrable wonder woman who just dominates everything that she turns her hand to, but she has had many major struggles that she openly and willingly share in this podcast. 

On the show you’ll hear: 

• Why Kelly felt that she had to be tough given her Military career and elite sporting background 

• How her Mum’s death lead to her stopping self-harming  

• How mental health was still a taboo subject when Kelly initially had a breakdown 

• Why being an elite athlete is lonely 

• Self harming before the olympics 

• How elite athletics push her to the edge but was also what saved her 

• The power of knowing you have someone to turn to 

• Why Kelly has a ‘Positive Attitude Today’ mentality 
• 
  
• The power of movement 

• Why routines are so powerful
