You've tried the morning routines. You've set the boundaries. You've made the plans to eat better, move more, wind down at night. But somehow, by Tuesday, it all falls apart. Here's the real problem: you're treating self-care like something you have to manually remember instead of something that just happens.

In this episode, I'm walking you through six systems from my own life that have completely transformed how I take care of myself—without relying on willpower, discipline, or trying to remember one more thing. From smart home automations to daily check-in pages in Notion, recipe trackers to shutdown rituals, you'll learn how to build self-care into your infrastructure so your brain doesn't have to carry the weight anymore.

What you'll learn:

• Why self-care habits fail when they rely on constant mental energy
• How to use smart home automation to prompt wind-down and wake-up routines
• The exact Notion pages I use to make my habits visible and automatic
• Calendar defaults that protect your time boundaries (without the guilt)
• How to eliminate decision fatigue around food and nutrition
• The shutdown ritual checklist that creates a clear end to your workday

This episode is all about SYSTEMS and SELF-CARE—two of the three pillars of sustainable performance. Because when your self-care is systematized, you don't have to remember it anymore. And that's when it actually sticks.
