Building habits and lives that make sense

when the world doesn't

Most advice about habits, goals, and success assumes one thing: that the world we’re trying to succeed in is basically healthy.

Many people sense that it isn’t.

They feel the pressure to hustle, optimise, consume, distract themselves, and keep up, while quietly wondering if this is really the life they want to build.

This is a place to slow that down and make sense of it.

ORIENTATION

You don’t need to fix yourself to begin.

Many struggles with change are not personal failures.
They’re rational responses to environments that reward speed, pressure, and constant optimisation.

Before deciding what to improve or change, it helps to understand:

  • why things feel harder than they should

  • what pressure you’re actually responding to

  • and what kind of change would make sense in your real life

Understanding this is important.
But change also requires responsibility for who we are becoming and for the systems we participate in.

That’s what this work is about.

WHAT I DO

I help people build habits, goals, and ways of living that make sense

in real life and in a world worth living in.

Habits here are treated as tools for agency, not rules for efficiency.

That means:

  • starting with responsibility and self-awareness, not blame

  • designing habits that work on imperfect days

  • planning for failure instead of pretending it won’t happen

  • working on who you’re becoming, not just what you’re doing

  • questioning defaults instead of blindly optimising for more

I’m not interested in productivity for productivity’s sake.


And I don’t believe we can breathe, hack, or optimise our way out of unhealthy systems.

TWO CONTEXTS

The same tension shows up at different scales: in individual lives and in how work is designed.

For individuals

People usually come here when they know what they want, or think they do, but feel stuck trying to make it work inside systems that don’t fit their values, energy, or idea of a good life.

Here, we start small and practical:

  • tools to make sense of what’s going on

  • habits designed for real conditions

  • identity work that supports choice, not pressure

You can explore quietly and at your own pace.

For teams and organisations

Some people come here because they’re responsible for how work happens.

They see capable people struggling, not because they lack motivation, but because systems create constant friction, overload, and contradiction.

Through Design for Flow, I work with teams and leaders to:

  • reduce unnecessary friction

  • align goals with real capacity

  • design ways of working that support focus, collaboration, and recovery

  • improve delivery without burning people out

This work moves from understanding into redesign, without force or self-blame.

WAYS TO START

You don’t need to decide anything right now.

Common starting points are:

Tools
Short, practical resources to help you understand your situation and design change without pressure.

Live workshops
Occasional spaces to explore specific topics together, like goal setting or habit design.

Group courses
For those who want companionship and structure while experimenting with change.

You can take one step, pause, or leave and return later.

UPCOMING

Sometimes it helps to explore these questions live, with others.

This work is not about fixing people.
It’s about helping them become grounded and conscious enough to choose differently, and to stop feeding systems they don’t believe in.

Habits and identity are not the end point.
They’re a starting point.

From there, we build small, real islands of sanity together.

If you’re interested in building habits and a life that still make sense when the world doesn’t, you’ll probably feel at home here.
