    9. The Micro Habit Formula for Realistic Goal Setting (Series)

    If you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent, wake up earlier, build routines, or follow through on goals, this conversation breaks down the science and psychology behind habit formation in a way that’s simple, practical, and actually doable. We refer to keystone habits as coined by Charles Duhigg in The Power of Habit, and how keystone habits can change everything when it comes to working on habits that just don't seem to stick. In this 3 part Habit series, you’ll learn how to create momentum with intention, how keystone habits trigger powerful change, and why success isn’t about discipline—it’s about creating systems and micro habits towards our goals. We talk how waking up earlier can transform your mindset and productivity, how we can use sensory cues to strengthen habits, and how identity shifts happen when you start showing up for yourself. This episode is perfect for anyone who feels ready for action but also fearful of not following through again. If you’re ready to build sustainable routines, start an exercise regimen, or cut out unhealthy eating habits and finally create lasting change, this is your starting point.

    8. The Habit Field (Series); A Complete Guide to Habit Formation

    This series is a realistic, sustainable guide to building any habit you want—without relying on motivation alone. In this first episode of the Habit Field series, we break down how habits actually form by wiring our minds through repetition, environment, and consistent action. Whether you’re trying to improve home organization, create better routines, grow a business, or simply stop feeling stuck, this episode lays the foundation for long-term change. This is not a “21-day habit” promise. This is a comprehensive, science-informed framework designed for real life—especially for people navigating ADHD, burnout, or the constant overwhelm that comes with busy schedules and mental load. Throughout this series, you’ll learn how to reduce decision fatigue, build sustainable systems, and create habits that actually fit your life instead of fighting against it. If you’ve been trying to change and keep falling back into old patterns, this series will help you understand why—and give you a clear, practical path forward toward habits that last.

    7. Habits and Decisions That Protect Your Mental Energy

    In this episode, we talk about habits, commitment, and why overthinking keeps us stuck. If you’ve ever felt frozen by too many options, struggled with analysis paralysis, or avoided committing to a habit because you’re scared of doing it “wrong,” this conversation is for you. Through real-life examples, relatable stories, and the concept of the Freedom Paradox, we break down how too much choice can actually drain your mental energy—and why making a clear decision is often the fastest way to build better habits and regain momentum in your life. This episode is a raw, unscripted look at how habits are formed through action, not perfection. We explore fear of commitment, decision fatigue, morning routines that actually work, and how simplifying your choices helps rewire your brain for consistency. If you’re a woman who wants to create sustainable habits, reduce mental clutter, and stop feeling stuck in indecision, this episode will help you take one small, powerful step forward—without burning yourself out or trying to overhaul your entire life at once.

    6. Outgrowing Old Patterns Without Outgrowing People You Love

    If you’ve ever felt frustrated watching someone struggle with something you’ve already “figured out,” this episode is a reminder that growth isn’t just about progress—it’s about staying connected to where you started. In this conversation, we explore how overcoming challenges with debt, mental health, and overall wellness can quietly shift your mindset in ways that impact your relationship with others. As our habits improve and life becomes more stable, it’s easy to forget what it felt like to be in survival mode. We talk about how to rebuild empathy, strengthen healthier relationships, and develop supportive habits that keep you grounded in compassion—not comparison. This episode will help you show up in your personal and professional relationships in a way that actually supports long-term wellness, connection, and sustainable change.

    5. Small steps towards big projects; setting yourself up for success

    In this episode, I let you in on what’s happening behind the scenes as old core beliefs, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and ADHD patterns start fighting for control right when the novelty wears off and consistency begins. If you’re someone who gets excited about new ideas, jumps in fast, and then suddenly feels paralyzed, overwhelmed, or convinced you should quit altogether — this one will probably hit close to home. We talk about the mental “tricks” that show up when things get hard and the urge to abandon your project gets louder. I share real life examples, hard-earned insights, and the systems we can put in place to keep ourselves moving forward without burning out or losing our creativity.

    4.My 5 step meal planning system (ADHD friendly)

    Dinner shouldn’t be the thing that breaks you at the end of the day — and yet, for so many women, it is. In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact 5 step meal planning system I use to get dinner on the table faster, with less mess, fewer dishes, and way less mental load. This is realistic meal planning for busy women, especially those dealing with burnout, ADHD, decision fatigue, and overwhelming routines. This isn't about eating perfectly, following strict rules, or reorganizing your whole life. This is about building a simple, repeatable meal planning routine that works with real-life. Here are the resources I promised: Your chat GPT Prompt: I am making ______ and _______,  can you give me 30 dinner ideas that use similar ingredients as these so I can overlap the ingredients. 5 step Meal plan and Guide ⁠subscribepage.io/veL4JO⁠ (Budget-friendly version) Food Savers: https://a.co/d/eG1JLSW (Tupperware brand) What I use for food savers: https://a.co/d/6b6aN5D

    3. When over stimulation meets burn out- and why it peaks at dinner time.

    “I don’t hate cooking or meal planning—I’m exhausted from making too many decisions in an environment that doesn’t support my mind.”- Alyssa David In part 1 of this 2-part series, we talk about why starting and sticking to our dinner routines is such a struggle for women with ADHD and/or burn out. Together, we debunk our core beliefs about laziness, overwhelm, and failure, by seeing them for what they actually are. We talk about: -What the true reason is behind our avoidance when it comes to dinner routines. -Why I believe the chores we are rushing through are the things we actually yearn to enjoy. -How we can start to adjust out environment in a way that can support us in making our life satisfying again. In the second part of this series, I will share the system I use and exactly how I like to execute it each week.

    2: Why Setting New Year’s Goals Is Exciting—and Following Through Isn’t

    Did you know only 6% of new years resolutions are achieved? In this episode, I dig deep into why it's so exciting to start a new goal, where we get lost along the way, and what we can do instead. I introduce the concepts of micro habits, delayed gratification, and habit stacking. I talk about how we can use these tools to increase our chances of success with our goals, particularly our new years resolutions.
