Welcome to Fitness Soul Podcast. This is Power & Lipstick series where I (Joanna Weintritt) invite inspiring women to share their story.

In today's podcast, my guest is Katie Paterson. Katie is a marketing consultant endurance nutter and a Fitmama.

I know Katie for over a year as she joined our Fitness Soul gang and Fitmamas classes after having a baby.

In this podcast, Katie and I are going back in time a little bit and we are talking about Katie's life before the baby and her amazing journey.

Four years ago, Katie and now-husband Euan, embarked on an adventure to cycle around the world. 22,000km, 31 countries, 4 continents, and 11 months later, they arrived back in the UK having powered themselves around the globe with their own two legs. Now living in Leith, with baby Archie, Katie and Euan continue to challenge themselves physically albeit a little closer to home.

As well as looking after Archie, Katie has trained as a fitness instructor and hopes to start delivering FitMamas classes to mums locally soon. She also offers flexible freelance marketing and communications support to small business in sport and fitness.

In this podcast, we also talk about endurance racing, pushing the limits, about consistency, mindset, being kind for yourself and about getting stronger. We finish off talking about how things changed for her when she became a mum.
I hope you enjoy this podcast and it will make you realise that you can achieve and experience things you always dreamed about.
