1
You don't need another planner, another Pinterest routine, or more motivation.
2
If you've ever wondered why you just can't stick to a routine or why you keep starting over every Monday, this video is for you.
3
Trust me, I've been there and done that.
4
I used to restart my entire life every Sunday night.
5
I'd spend hours planning out my calendar, making my schedule all aesthetic, and I'd still give up by Wednesday.
6
I kept thinking, why can't I be consistent?
7
Is it discipline?
8
Is it laziness?
9
Is there something wrong with me?
10
And if you struggle with the same thing, you are not crazy.
11
We are living in the perfection society where we are constantly brainwashed with these unattainable influencer lifestyles.
12
Everywhere on social media, every girl seems to effortlessly have her life together.
13
But what if I told you that these women aren't actually perfect?
14
They just know something you don't.
15
And there are regular girls like you
16
and me who are using this new system to completely transform
17
their lives in just 30 days without having to wake up at 5am or spend three hours on their morning routine.
18
So if you're tired of trying to restart your life every Monday, this video is for you.
19
But before we get into the exact method, you have to understand the problem with willpower.
20
Relying on willpower or pure motivation to get through the week is outdated advice
21
because it simply does not work for the reality we live in today.
22
The average person sees roughly 5 ,000 ads per day, which is absolutely insane and we are constantly bombarded with distractions.
23
And this is why relying on motivation has not worked for you.
24
You've probably felt super motivated one Sunday night and you tell yourself you're going to wake up early on Monday, do your skin care routine, eat healthy and be productive.
25
Then Monday comes along.
26
You might make it through the entire day doing all your habits, but then Tuesday hits.
27
You overslept, work was extremely stressful.
28
And so you just abandon everything, telling yourself you'll just start fresh next Monday.
29
This was literally the story of my life.
30
But here's the thing, it's not your fault that other routines haven't worked.
31
The reason you keep finding yourself in the same draining cycle is not because you lack willpower or discipline.
32
It's because you've been trying to change everything at once.
33
Now, I'm about to show you the one system that completely transformed my life and actually made me consistent at routines.
34
But before I show you how to use it, I want to compare other routine systems that you've probably tried before and explain why they haven't worked for you.
35
There are five key metrics that determine whether a routine system will actually work for a busy woman like you.
36
Number one is time investment.
37
How much time the routine takes daily.
38
Number two is startup overwhelm.
39
How much of your life you have to adjust for the routine.
40
Number three is sustainability, which is basically how long you can realistically maintain this routine.
41
Number four is flexibility, which is what happens to this method when life gets messy.
42
And number five is realistic expectations.
43
Whether this routine actually fits into your lifestyle.
44
So let's talk about method number one, the 5am club.
45
Time investment, two to three hours.
46
Getting up at 5am requires you to wake up two to three hours earlier than you normally would, which is a lot.
47
So if you're not used to waking up early or you're not a morning person, this is a huge adjustment.
48
Startup overwhelm is extreme.
49
You have to literally change your sleep schedule, morning routine, and evening routine at the same time to accommodate waking up at 5am.
50
And I don't know about you, but that sounds terrible.
51
Sustainability is two to three weeks max.
52
I have never met anyone who's actually stuck with 5 a
53
.m wake -ups long -term unless they were already naturally early risers.
54
Even when I was waking up at 5 a .m., I could only do it like four days out of the week and my entire sleep schedule was messed up.
55
Flexibility is zero because what happens when you go to bed late?
56
You only get three hours of sleep and you feel like trash the next day.
57
So the entire system eventually just falls apart.
58
And this is really only realistic for like 1 % of the population.
59
So basically, this could work if you have no social life and can function on very little sleep.
60
Number two is the influencer morning routine.
61
Time investment is one to three hours.
62
You're doing a 10 -step skincare routine, a 60 -minute Pilates class, 30 minutes of meditation, journaling.
63
By the time you're done, it's noon, babe.
64
Let's be honest.
65
This is only for people who don't work a nine to five.
66
Startup overwhelm is high.
67
Trying to incorporate all of these is like adding 15 new habits at once.
68
Sustainability, one month, if you're lucky.
69
Like the 5 a .m club, if you don't wake up early enough, you won't have time to do most of it.
70
Plus, skincare and Pilates classes are expensive.
71
So if you don't got that influencer money, it's a no -go.
72
Flexibility, medium.
73
Again, it works great if you don't have to be at an office at 9 a .m.
74
And realistic expectations, this is an Instagram fantasy.
75
This routine method is purely designed for aesthetics.
76
And method number three, using willpower.
77
This takes constant mental energy because every decision you make requires some amount of willpower.
78
The startup overwhelm is maximum mom.
79
You're basically forcing yourself to do everything perfectly using pure determination.
80
Sustainability is two weeks max.
81
Willpower is finite.
82
You will run out of it.
83
Flexibility is basically negative.
84
Any deviation will be clocked as weakness in your mind.
85
This is basically toxic productivity.
86
And this is all based on the myth that successful people just have more willpower, which is obviously not true.
87
Now, what would the perfect routine system look like?
88
I would want the time investment to be like 15 minutes.
89
It should fit into your existing schedule.
90
The startup overwhelm should be minimal.
91
You're able to make changes so gradually your brain doesn't notice.
92
This system should last a lifetime.
93
It should be built to last through real life, not just a season.
94
It also needs to have maximum flexibility so that it adapts with you even when life gets messy.
95
And again, it should be designed for real women with real lives, not just influencers.
96
And believe it or not, this ideal method exists and it's called the it girl method.
97
After years of studying personal development and trying every routine out there, here's what I discovered.
98
What if instead of trying to build the perfect routine, we built habits so gradually that we didn't even notice we were changing?
99
You see, your brain is literally wired to resist big changes because it sees them as threats.
100
So trying to add 10 new habits to your routine is basically just asking to fail.
101
The people who seem naturally consistent did not start with perfect routines, but they built habits so gradually that their brain didn't even notice it was changing.
102
This is the It Girl method and it's exactly what I teach in It Girl Academy.
103
It is the 30 -day effortless transformation system.
104
Here's how it works.
105
Step one is the setup.
106
I show you how to apply the It Girl method to your real life
107
and how to plan your week so that you actually follow through.
108
Step two is building.
109
We'll create your perfect morning and evening routines that will set you up for success every day.
110
Step three is optimize.
111
I'm gonna show you how to optimize your energy and confidence so that you can achieve the goals you've always wanted.
112
Step four is maintain.
113
We'll bake flexibility into the method itself for when life gets messy, because let's be real, it will.
114
So that is why I created the Ickrell Academy, a 30 -day transformation system that includes detailed step -by -step videos where I show you how to implement this method,
115
done -for -you morning and evening routine templates, free access to my digital planner that I normally charge for, tons of checklists, tools, and resources designed for your success,
116
and private access to me and our IGA community.
117
You can find programs like this online that are easily worth over $500 for this system.
118
I mean, even one session with the life coach costs triple that, but I know what it feels like to be stuck in this cycle.
119
I've personally spent thousands of dollars on planners and programs that didn't even work.
120
So instead of charging something like $500, you're not even paying $300.
121
If you are committed to leveling up and actually making a change in your life, then click the link in the description to make that investment in yourself and join the It Girl Academy.
122
And I'm skeptical myself, like I've been burned before too.
123
So that is why I'm including my 180 day It Girl guarantee.
124
As your internet big sis, I'm always gonna keep it 100 % real with you.
125
Even though I've had my own personal transformation of being
126
that lost 20 something year old to now people asking me for advice, I still can't promise you that your life is going to magically transform after watching this.
127
But what I can guarantee is that real women have gotten real results from using this one system that I created.
128
Every woman in the Ick Girl Academy is getting results like this every single day.
129
But like I said, I am a walking testament of this routine system
130
because I've tried every other one out there and nothing has worked.
131
But that's why I designed the Ick Girl method.
132
Because it works even if you've never been able to stick to a routine your entire life.
133
In fact, it works even better for chronic quitters and unmotivated girlies.
134
This is literally designed for you.
135
Because I am your personalized coach inside the community, I can only handle so many members to give them my undivided attention.
136
So I can't guarantee A Girl Academy will be accepting members forever.
137
Once we hit our capacity, I'll have to be closing enrollment.
138
But if you're thinking, Allison, this sounds great, but it won't work for me.
139
Yeah, you're right.
140
What I've learned in this life is that if you are
141
so convinced that you cannot be helped or you don't have what it takes to become the best version of yourself, then you're right.
142
No amount of convincing for me is going to change your mind.
143
But every day you wait to make a change is another day you stay stuck in the same Monday -Tuesday cycle.
144
There is no such thing as your prime years.
145
Your prime is right now.
146
Don't let another season pass by feeling like you're behind when you could already be living your dream life.
147
Remember, the women who seem effortlessly put together are not any different than you.
148
They just have systems that work.
149
And now you can too.
150
So if you're ready to commit to the highest version of yourself and experience constant wins, then click the link in the description to join me in the It Girl Academy.
151
I am so, so proud of you for putting yourself first
152
and taking that step toward becoming the woman you've always dreamed of.
153
Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you in IGA.
154
Bye.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
