15. Stop Overloading Yourself: Build Lasting Habits with This One Key Shift

 

Are you trying to do all the things at once?

 

You’ve got big goals — getting healthier, managing your time better, being more present with your family — but the problem? You’re trying to tackle them all at once.

 

You’re setting alarms to wake up earlier, planning a new fitness routine, cutting out sugar, organizing your pantry, decluttering your home, and learning a new skill… and you expect to stick with all of it immediately.

 

Sound familiar?

 

Here’s the thing: This approach to habit-building rarely works.

 

In this episode, I’m diving into this common mistake people make when trying to create new habits, and I share one key shift that does work... really well actually.

 

I’ll explain:

• Why taking on too much at once backfires.

• How to avoid overwhelm and burnout.

• The secret to creating habit loops that actually stick.

• A simple framework for layering habits over time.

 

If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in a cycle of starting strong, then losing momentum, then giving up, this episode is for you.

 

Let’s stop the overload and start making real progress — one habit at a time. 🙌
