What if changing your life was as simple as changing your habits?

In this powerful episode, host Holly McNeill sits down with Dr. Tamsin Astor—Chief Habit Scientist, neuroscientist, yoga teacher, and Ayurvedic coach—to explore how Eastern wisdom and Western neuroscience converge to help us take back control of our minds, our behaviors, and ultimately, our lives. Tamsin shares her journey from academic burnout and caregiving exhaustion to personal transformation through intentional daily rituals.

 

Key takeaways include:

  • Why habits—not willpower—shape your destiny
  • How to create space between thought and reaction
  • Tools to rewire your brain through repetition and mindfulness
  • The power of community in building lasting change

 

If you're tired of feeling stuck and ready to reclaim your freedom, this conversation is the reset you’ve been waiting for.
