Today we’re kicking off Part 1 of a brand-new mini series all about routines and it starts with one of the most important shifts you can make: going from reactive to routined.

In this episode, we break down what it really means to live reactively (constantly responding from stress, emotion, and external pressure) and why that keeps us stuck, overwhelmed, and exhausted. We dive into the psychology and neuroscience behind reactiveness, how the brain’s fear center hijacks our decisions, and why life can feel so chaotic when we don’t have structure.

Then, we flip the script.

You’ll learn what it means to live in intentional routine, how routines actually reduce stress, improve focus, and support long-term growth, and why small, repeatable habits are the foundation of real change. I walk you through a simple, step-by-step framework to build a routine in any area of your life — from mental health and sleep to productivity, cleaning, and personal growth.

We also cover:


Why routines work on a neurological level


How to move from emotional reactions to conscious choices


Examples of daily vs. weekly routines


How to build routines that actually fit your life


A real-life breakdown of creating a cleaning routine

Plus, there’s a free downloadable worksheet to help you create your own routine alongside this episode. DOWNLOAD HERE!

This episode is all about shifting from survival mode to intentional living — and it sets the foundation for the entire routines series.

Goal Planning & Strategy — Reviewing 2025, Setting 2026, and the Systems That Make It Happen!

In this episode, I take you inside my personal goal-planning process — from reflecting on everything I set out to achieve in 2025, to breaking down what I’m aiming for in 2026, and most importantly, the daily, weekly and monthly habits and strategic systems that keep me moving forward.

I start by reviewing my 2025 goals — what I hit, what I missed, and the lessons behind each win and loss. Transparency is everything, and I share real insights into how goals evolve when you commit to growth over perfection.

Then we shift into my 2026 vision. Together we explore how aligning your goals with your values turns intention into action. CHEERS TO A NEW YEAR MY GIRLS!! And remember, your life is entirely UP TO YOU! I love you and believe in you.
