Live Life By
Design, Not By
Default
Created by licensed therapist Isabelle Tierney, the science-backed Methodology empowers you to pivot in the moment from habitual reactions - like stress eating, procrastinating, or snapping at loved ones - to conscious, positive responses, upleveling every area of your life within weeks.
Are you ready to change your habits?
Do you pour your heart, soul, and resources into bettering yourself, only to find that some old habitual behaviors just won’t let go?
You start every morning with good intentions—committing to be less reactive, eat healthier, but by evening it feels like you’re back to square one. You feel frustrated that no matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to change for good.
Here’s a powerful truth: you don’t need more willpower, white-knuckling, or shaming.
You simply need to know what to do in those critical seconds, what I call "the choice point," when you’re faced with the decision to either give into an old habitual response or choose a more constructive behavior.
Meet the Methodology, a one-of-a-kind tool that meets you directly at the choice point, helping you change your behavior when it really counts.
It guides you through three science-based steps that empower you to rapidly break hard-wired habitual patterns and choose healthy habits that stick.
People who use the Methodology consistently say that it’s "life-changing." Say goodbye to feeling stuck and hello to a life deeply aligned with what matters most to you.
This isn't just about changing habits; it's about transforming the way you respond to life's challenges, one choice at a time.

Awareness
On a scale of 1-10, with 1 feeling least good, and 10 feeling most good, how do you feel?
-
Step 1
If you're at 6 or below, stop! Don't trust your impulses, and don't take any action.
-
Step 2
Slow down and breath - take at least 5 slow, deep breaths. Notice how this affects the way you feel.
-
Step 3
Go to a Feel Good Habit - make a positive choice, like going for a walk or calling a friend.
