In this episode, I break down the first step in building sustainable habits—clarifying and classifying your goals.
Whether you’re chasing a health milestone, creating a more consistent self-care routine, or finally making progress on a personal project, this episode will help you understand the difference between having a goal and building a habit that gets you there.
Using real-life examples and stories (including my own running journey!), I show you how to make your habits so easy they practically do themselves.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:✔️ Why “SMART goals” aren’t always realistic—especially the time-bound part
✔️ How to break your big goals into habits that are simple and actionable
✔️ The power of habit cues (like putting on your running shoes) to set routines in motion
✔️ How to avoid the overwhelm of “starting big” and instead start with something so easy your brain can’t say no
✔️ A sneak peek into the ME Hour Method and how it supports goal-getting without burnout

Giving up is easy, feeling guilty and unfulfilled is harder.
When we start things as perfectionists there is often the expectation that all of the prep work we did will make our ideal clients jump at us and fill our program, or book out our calendar immediately.
But we all know that’s not how that works. Something else happens, too. We remember how we felt when we were seen, successful, or unsuccessful as a child, whether that was a good or bad feeling.
In this episode, I am discussing what to do when you figure out what conditioning you need to overcome in order to continue in your launch or even in your business as a whole.

For the longest time I thought that you were feeling guilty for prioritizing yourself. Now I understand that you are discouraged that you don't take the time to prioritize yourself, which leads to an endless cycle of discouragement, inaction, and anxiety.
Well I have developed the antidote to the Discouragement Cycle that I have been using on both my 1:1 clients and my membership clients. It's called the E3 Method. In this episode, I go through what the E3 Method is and how we can work together with this simple process so that you can get out of your head and start putting you first without getting discouraged and not doing it. And without feeling guilty when you do!
