    Clarify, Classify, Continue: The First Step to Habit Success

    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 ✨ Ready to Take Action?
