From yogi to nutritionist and the power of manifestation…
In our twelfth episode of Pearls' Tales from the Superyacht Laundry, we sit down for a chat with Kat, an ex stew turned ‘The Yacht Nutritionist’.
Kat never set her sights on the yachting industry until a chance meeting with some crew who entered the yoga studio she managed. Fast-forward a summer, and she found herself working onboard, quickly learning how to clean.
The episode chats about Kat's food and diet challenges, which were heightened during her time onboard. Looking back, she candidly reflects on her time struggling with disordered and binge eating. It covers how vein the industry is, the pressure of crew member diets, and the ongoing judgement of skort sizes.
Knowing that yachting had an expiration date for her, Kat made a bold decision. She was ready for a change and knew she wanted to study nutrition. While she had been taking everyone else's advice on what to eat, she was eager to understand the science behind it herself.
She talks about how she loves studying but returning to it while transitioning out of yachting was tough. The episode delves into diet crazes, from the raw carnivore to Ozempic.
Tune in to hear how Kat now helps clients within the industry and how her future horizons are set on further topic areas…
