#89: Why Your Routines Don't Stick (And the Phase One Rule That Actually Works)

If you've ever wondered why routines don't stick, this episode is for you.

Most routines fall apart not because you lack discipline — but because they're built for perfect days. When life gets busy, messy, or unpredictable, routines collapse. That's why routines don't stick for so many busy moms.

In this episode, I explain the simple Phase One Rule that fixes this problem and helps you build routines that stick — even on hard days.

🔷You'll learn:
• Why routines fail after a few weeks
• How to shrink a habit so it becomes sustainable
• How to attach routines to something that already exists
• Why your organizing style affects what kind of routine works for you

If you're tired of starting over every month, this will help you finally build routines that last.

🔷Next week: I'm going deeper into the home systems that routines attach to — because without those, nothing sticks long-term.
