Episode 43 — How Did You Even Come Up With Life Systems? Life Systems weren't born in a planner.
They were born in a chair — grieving my dad, freshly diagnosed with MS, and freshly out of a toxic nine-to-five — asking what on earth I was supposed to do now. In this raw, personal origin episode, I'm sharing the real, unglamorous story behind Life Systems: the season that broke my old routines, the business idea that accidentally became a way to run my home, and the very first system I built when I could no longer do all the things.
If your life has fallen apart and you can't seem to "keep it together" like you used to — this one's for you. Consider it permission to build from exactly where you are.
