Be Your Best Self in 2025 Challenge: Habits that Stick

Jobshare Revolution: Flexible Work for Work-Life Balance

26. James Clear Your Year: Habits That Stick in 2025
This is the year your habits stick—and I’m here to spill the James Clear tea 🫖 to help make it happen. In Episode 26, we continue the Be Your Best Self in 2025 Challenge with Day 4: James Clear Your Year: Habits That Stick.

If you’ve ever struggled to maintain habits or dropped them after just a few weeks, this episode will transform the way you approach habit-building. Inspired by James Clear’s groundbreaking work in Atomic Habits, I’ll guide you through the science of habit formation and how to create systems that set you up for success. As most folks (including me!) find adopting habits for the long-term challenging, I dive into how my husband became a runner and I became a vegetarian, breaking the broken habits curse once and for all by understanding the stages and applying James' methodology.
