Ever feel like you're just not a "routines person"? Before you blame yourself, listen in. In this episode of the Real Happy Mom Podcast, we’re breaking down five reasons why your routines aren’t sticking—and none of them have to do with your motivation or willpower. If you’ve ever tried someone else’s perfect system and felt like a failure, this is your reminder: it’s not you, it’s the routine.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why most routines are built for ideal conditions (and what to do instead).
• How to build a routine that fits your energy, season, and lifestyle.
• Why flexibility—not perfection—is the secret to consistency.

3 Takeaways:

1. Make It Fit Real Life:
   Routines built on someone else’s perfect day won’t survive real-life interruptions. Yours should bend with your season, not break at the first challenge.
2. Keep It Simple + Flexible:
   Small, repeatable routines—like a 10-minute tidy or 3-step morning reset—are more effective than rigid, overwhelming systems.
3. You’re Not the Problem—The System Might Be:
   You don’t need more discipline—you need tools that support you, not stress you out. A Trello board or 3 go-to dinners might be your real secret weapon.
