Sticky Habits
Create sustainable habits designed specifically for the realities of women's busy lives.
Women struggle to form habits that stick, not due to their lack of willpower, but because traditional methods weren't designed for their real lives. Sticky Habits: A Woman's Guide to Reclaim Happiness, Ditch Perfectionism, and Create Habits that Last introduces a revolutionary approach tailored to women's unique challenges, providing a flexible, research-backed method.
Sticky Habits guides readers through understanding how the mental and physical loads of invisible labour make conventional methods ineffective for women. The book presents the Sticky Habit Method step-by-step with real stories from diverse women, helping readers design habits around sleep, exercise, routines, and self-care that work even while facing lifeβs most jam-packed, stressful seasons.
Readers will also discover:
- Why decades of research on invisible labour prove that women need different habit formation strategies than men.
- A step-by-step flexible method specifically designed for busy women dealing with interruptions, maxed-out to-do lists, heavy mental loads, and burnout.
- Real-life case studies of women across diverse life stages who successfully created sustainable habits using this approach.
- Practical guidance for building habits around sleep, exercise, routines, self-care, and rest that stick even on demanding days.
- How to shift from productivity-focused habits to ones that support identity, fulfilment, connection, and genuine happiness.
Perfect for busy mothers, working professionals, and women balancing multiple responsibilities, Sticky Habits offers a compassionate, practical alternative to traditional habit books. This empowering guide helps women create supportive routines that honour their realities, allowing them to feel like themselves again and live happier, more fulfilled lives.
