KAT MURDOCK Interview Published on: 22, Apr 2024
Can you share a bit about your journey into writing?
After 20 years of writing fiction books on scrap pieces of paper and hiding them in my safe, I decided to do a book writing course while home schooling my teenage son. The course required me to do a non-fiction book first so Self-Improvement and Self-Love One day Workbook was born.
v How do you balance being a single mother of three, a business owner, farmer, horse whisperer, sports coach, and now an author?I work long hours, I prioritise parenting and I don’t waste time on screens.
Can you share a bit about your personal journey and how it led you to become an author in the self-improvement genre?I love self-improvement and that is what all of my friends rely on me for. I can usually fix peoples problems because I had to climb out of a deep emotional hole myself and it took me half of my life.
What inspired you to write "Self-Improvement & Self-Love One Day Workbook for Women"?To help other women to not waste their life away like I did.
What motivated you to focus specifically on helping women thrive quickly?Because I meet and hear about many women who are stuck and can’t balance the 12 areas of their lives.
Could you explain the concept of "Relationships 5.0" and how it fits into your book?Our lives are all about Relationships and getting them right. The relationship with yourself is most important and then we work on external relationships.
What do you hope readers will gain from using your workbook?The will gain clarity, power, confidence in their decision making, success through smarter plans, better relationships and greater happiness.
As someone who wears many hats, how do you prioritize self-care and self-love in your own life?It is my top priority, I know when I need to eat better, move, sleep better, communicate better and rest. I now know that I need to look after myself at least 2 hours every day.
What are some common challenges you see women facing in their journey to self-improvement, and how does your book address them?They are stuck and do not know where to start, my book leads them from the start to the end in the full circle. It is easier to follow someone who knows how.
Can you share some of the exercises or activities from your workbook that you find particularly impactful?The happiness over time chart that I created was a light bulb moment for me.
How do you incorporate your experiences as a farmer and horse whisperer into your approach to self-improvement and self-love?I am practical and compassionate and there is a human in every horse. With my rescue horses I build trust and teach them little tricks that are fun, I make life easy for the horse and eventually falls in love with himself and me. This is the tipping point in horse training where I give them their confidence back. The same works for humans, I teach them to find their confidence through my process. I am about to start my Self-Improvement Life Coaching Course for Women to follow up my 3 books.
What role do you believe self-love plays in personal and professional success?It is key, if you know how to put yourself back together you get stronger and stronger
