S2 | Ep. 15: Why Most Routines Don’t Stick and How to Change That.


Listen Later

Starting a new routine doesn’t have to feel rigid or overwhelming. In this episode of The Love Your REAL Life Podcast, Faith shares a gentle, sustainable approach to building routines that actually support your life — by starting with how you want to feel, not what you think you should do.

This episode walks you through how to create a baseline and an ideal version of any routine so it can flex with your energy, your season, and your real life.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
  1. Why most routines don’t stick
  2. How to start any routine by identifying how you want to feel
  3. What a baseline routine is — and why it matters
  4. How an ideal routine supports you without pressure
  5. How flexibility creates consistency
  6. Why routines built with kindness last longer

Key Takeaway

A routine doesn’t need to be perfect to be effective.

When you start with how you want to feel and create flexible actions to support that feeling, routines become sustainable — even on hard days.

Reflection to Try:

Ask yourself:

  1. How do I want to feel?
  2. What is the smallest action that supports that feeling?
  3. What would the ideal version look like on a good day?

Both versions count.

Bio

I specialize in supporting women who have experienced infidelity and are ready to reclaim their power, rebuild trust in themselves, and create a life they truly love.

As a holistic nurse and wellness coach, I weave together mindful nutrition, movement, mindset work, and nervous system regulation to help women reconnect with their bodies and their inner strength.

While my heart is in guiding women through the healing process after betrayal, I also work with clients on a wide range of wellness goals—helping them create sustainable routines and habits that align with their values and vision for a thriving life.

Outside of my work, I’m married to my soulmate, Seth, and I’m blessed to be a mom, stepmom, grandma, and mother-in-law. Family time is at the top of my list. I also have amazing friends and get together regularly with them, supper club, book club, backpacking & hiking, daily walks, yoga, reading, traveling to exciting places, creative projects, and organizing spaces to create a cozy, welcoming home.

***Making any lifestyle changes is from my own experience and/or other clients personal experiences and may not be suited for you. It is strongly recommended that you consult with your health professional before making changes in your own life. By engaging in anything that I talk about, you agree that you do so at your own risk.
