Habits Through the Lens of SHiFT®: A Compassionate Approach to Chronic Disorganization
Habits are the foundation of lasting change—but for clients affected by chronic disorganization, ADHD, and other neurodiverse needs, building and sustaining habits can feel overwhelming or even impossible. In this engaging and practical session, Jen Cazares, CPO-CD® and creator of the SHiFT® Method, will explore how to approach habit building through a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming lens.
Jen’s SHiFT® Method integrates behavior change science with sustainable routines, helping organizers and productivity professionals co-create systems that truly stick. You'll learn how to:
-
Identify the internal and external barriers to habit formation
-
Adapt habit-building strategies for clients with executive function challenges
-
Support meaningful progress through compassionate accountability
-
Apply the SHiFT® Method to guide clients from stuck to sustainable
Whether you're working with clients who struggle to follow through or looking to deepen your understanding of habit science, this session will equip you with tools to help your clients build routines that last—one small SHiFT® at a time.
