This week’s reset is about tiny habits—the small choices that quietly change how a day feels. None of these are especially hard, but together they’ve been helping me feel safer, calmer, and more at home in my creativity.

Here are the tiny things that are making a big difference for me lately:

1. Reclaiming my power before I get out of bed

Before I even stand up, I repeat this phrase three times:

I reclaim my power from all people, places, timelines, and dimensions where I have given it away knowingly or unknowingly.
I am whole.
I am sovereign.
I am sealed in divine light.

Yes, its woo woo, but also it’s a reminder that I get to exist here—fully.

2. Washing the dishes first thing in the morning

I hate dishes, so I used to save them for last… which meant they never got done. Doing them in the morning removes a lingering mental weight and makes the rest of the day feel lighter.

3. Reentering my journal era

After finishing The Artist’s Way, I took a short break from morning pages. This week, I jumped back in. Right now, I write 10 things I’m grateful for and 5 things I’m thinking about. It’s been incredibly helpful for gently untangling where I feel stuck in my business.

4. Letting the first hour of work be intentional exploration

Sometimes that means listening to Start With This. Sometimes it means updating my Life Reset OS, sketching new product ideas, or just drawing for the sake of drawing.

5. Working in 25-minute sprints

I use a 25-minute timer during my workday to counterbalance my ADHD time blindness—something that makes it hard to estimate how long tasks will take. It turns work into a game and shows me how long things actually take. Before I was stretching tasks far beyond what they needed. Now I have proof.

A quick ad break

My newsletter started as a tiny experiment called: what if I just hit send.

That habit changed my entire career. (No notes.)

So I made a workshop for creatives stuck in “I’ll start soon” mode.

It’s time to find your creative voice.

6. Taking a real lunch break

One full hour. I cook something simple, then play a game on my phone (currently obsessed with Fortress Merge). It reminds me I’m a human—not an automaton.

7. Saying “a part of me feels anxious” instead of “I am anxious”

This comes from my recent IFS awakening. IFS (Internal Family Systems) is a therapeutic framework that treats emotions as parts of us—not our entire identity.

So instead of anxiety taking over everything, I’ll say: a part of me feels anxious… and another part feels excited. Or hopeful. Or steady.

Letting more than one feeling exist has been incredibly freeing.

8. Music must play while I cook dinner

No exceptions. It makes cooking more fun and gives the house energy—and honestly, that matters more to me than I realized.

9. Adding tiny joy breaks into the day

A short walk outside. A music video. A clip that made me laugh once before.

I’m avoiding social media during the day, but these intentional breaks give me more energy and make life feel more enjoyable.

My favorite rabbit hole right now is Jem and the Holograms—it feels like it was written by Tyler Perry, with Lisa Frank–level visuals. Pure joy.

10. Being relentlessly nice to myself

I no longer wait for other people to say the kind things I need to hear—I say them to myself. It felt awkward at first, but now these phrases live in my head: I love you. I’m proud of you. You’re talented. You can figure this out.

If a negative thought has something to teach me, I turn it into a question. If it’s just cruelty dressed up as honesty, I gently say: Not right now. We can look at that later.

All of this, together, is about creating a safe environment for creativity.

And low key it’s working.

Your Turn

Pick one habit from this list and try it for three days. Not forever. Just three days.

Notice how your body feels—not how “productive” you are.

Small changes count.

Then head over to the Reset Society Skool and tell me how it went.
