TEA WITH JULES

Solo Episode! The Chaos Of Modern Lives, To-Do Lists, Multitasking, & The Gentle Pep Talk You Need

Jules Sebastian Season 2 Episode 25

In this solo episode of Tea with Jules, Jules gets real about the chaos of modern life, 35-page to-do lists, and why multitasking is quietly frying our brains. She shares the small, science-backed habits that have completely reshaped her days – from becoming a 5:30 am morning person (yes, really) to breaking the chips-and-Netflix cycle at night.

This is a gentle, practical pep talk for anyone who feels busy, scattered, time-poor, and wants to feel calmer, clearer, and more on top of life without doing a full personality transplant overnight.

In This Episode, We Chat About

  • Why up to 40% of your day runs on autopilot – and how to make that work for you, not against you
  • The difference between “good” and “bad” habits (and why your brain doesn’t know the difference)
  • How Jules accidentally trained herself to wake up naturally at 5:35 am
  • The chips-and-Netflix habit she had to lovingly retire
  • Why our to-do lists are actually wish lists and why we only ever tick off a few things
  • What “attention residue” is and how multitasking makes us feel more stressed and less productive 
  • How to start designing your environment so it quietly supports the life you actually want
  • The simple mindset shift that can turn mornings from frantic to doable

How to Put This Episode Into Action

  • Choose one habit from the seven to start with this week
  • Tell Jules which one you’re trying and how it’s going – tag her or send a message
  • Try the “one thing rule” for just one focused block in your day and notice how it feels
