Ever wish life came with a “make this easier” button? Same. Between work deadlines, endless snack requests, and trying to remember if you actually switched the laundry (spoiler: you didn’t), it can feel like everything is hard.
But here’s the secret: You can do hard things with ease. That doesn’t mean life will always be easy, but moving through it with ease is the goal. And just like getting your kids to put their shoes on the first time you ask—it’s a practice.
So, if you’ve been Googling “how to make life easier”, let’s talk about what that really means (and no, it’s not just about outsourcing your least favorite tasks to Amazon Prime).
What Does It Mean to “Make Life Easier”?
Most people think “easier” means less hard stuff. But the reality? It’s about how you move through the hard stuff. Because let’s be honest—challenges aren’t going anywhere. There will still be work drama, toddler meltdowns, and weeks where your calendar looks like a game of Tetris.
But imagine if you could:
✔️ Stay calm instead of spiraling when things go sideways
✔️ Stop overthinking every little thing
✔️ Move through challenges without feeling like life is one long struggle
That’s ease. And that’s what actually makes life easier.
(If you're ready to start moving through your life with more ease, check out UNLEASHED Essentials👇🏼)
How to Make Life Easier (Even When Life Isn’t Easy)
1. Drop the Struggle Mode Mentality
Ever feel like you’re always bracing for the next disaster? (Because let’s be real, the last time your house was quiet for more than 10 minutes, it ended with a Sharpie masterpiece on the walls.)
Living in constant struggle mode makes everything feel harder than it actually is. But when you start expecting things to flow instead of fight you, guess what? They do.
👉 Shift your mindset from “this is going to be hard” to “I can handle this with ease.”
(Even if it’s just handling a toddler negotiation like a pro hostage negotiator.)
2. Stop Overcomplicating Everything
Newsflash: Not everything needs to be optimized, color-coded, or researched to death. (Yes, I’m talking to you [*pointing at me here*], moms who spend two hours reading Amazon reviews before buying a lunchbox.)
Ease comes when you stop making simple things harder than they need to be.
Instead of:
❌ Making 5-star gourmet meals every night → ✅ Have a go-to meal that requires zero brainpower (my to-go is a sheet pan meal 👉🏼 think lean protein [chicken or fish] + pre-chopped organic bag of veggies roasting in the oven...yum!)
❌ Saying “yes” to everything → ✅ Try “I’ll check my schedule” (and then say no guilt-free)
❌ Trying to do it all alone → ✅ Ask for help (or gasp delegate!)
3. Build In Recovery Time
If you never hit pause, life will feel like one long, exhausting marathon. (And no one likes mile 23.)
Making life easier isn’t about doing more—it’s about giving yourself the space to recover.
💡 Ask yourself: What would feel like ease today?
Maybe it’s:
➡️ Taking a real lunch break instead of eating over your keyboard
➡️ Skipping that unnecessary meeting (you know the one)
➡️ Letting your kid wear mismatched socks instead of fighting about it
Whatever it is, do more of that.
4. Accept That Hard Things Can Still Feel Light
Here’s the truth: You’re going to do hard things.
But hard doesn’t have to mean heavy.
You can handle work stress without carrying it home.
You can navigate challenges without feeling overwhelmed.
You can have a full life without feeling like you're drowning.
That’s what ease is. It’s not about avoiding the hard stuff—it’s about moving through it differently.
Final Thoughts: You Can Make Life Easier (Without Waiting for It to Be Easy)
Life isn’t going to hand you a VIP pass to effortless living. But you can start moving through it with more ease. And when you do? Everything—yes, even the hard stuff—feels lighter.
So, the next time life throws chaos your way, ask yourself: How can I move through this with ease? Then take a deep breath, drop the struggle, and handle it like the powerhouse you are.
