From Stuck to Started: Executive Function & ADHD Coaching to Take Action

036: What to Do When Your Systems Stop Working: How to Develop Good Habits


Listen Later

Ever find a planner, app, or routine that felt life-changing—only to abandon it a few weeks later? You’re not alone, and you’re not doing it wrong. In this episode, I’m diving into why your systems, habits, and routines sometimes fall apart (especially if your brain craves novelty), and how to shift instead of scrap what was once working.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why systems often stop working—and why that’s normal
  • How to be consistent with ADHD without sticking to one system
  • Ways to refresh or return to a habit, routine, or tool that used to help
  • What “pink flags” are and how to spot them before burnout
  • How to be consistent with systems by letting them evolve

Resources Mentioned:

  • Free training: Creating a Formula to Overcome Procrastination and Get Unstuck
