Building a Healthy Routine

Brandon Joffe, LCSW

Brandon analyzes the essential role of routines in mental health, focusing on the dangers of overbooking and underbooking our lives. He explains how many individuals and families tend to overbook every moment—to ensure their kids get ahead, make more money, or secure future opportunities. This constant hustle often leads to increased anxiety and stress, causing a neglect of the six pillars of a balanced life. He shares how a purpose-driven routine can help prevent burnout and maintain emotional well-being. Brandon also addresses the flip side of the issue: underbooking, which can leave people feeling unmotivated, isolated, and unsure of where to start. He explains that building a healthy routine doesn’t require waiting for motivation but rather making small, intentional changes toward a balanced life. Listeners will learn how to create sustainable routines that foster resilience, manage anxiety, and help them thrive.
