Episode Overview:
The reason there is so much talk of habits is because they can literally change your life for the better or the worse. Did that last statement sound dramatic? Listen to today’s episode to find out why it is not dramatic at all. Your habits can move you towards what you want your life to look like, or they can move you away from it. In this episode I provide specific examples of how this works and specific strategies you can implement to create habits that support you in living the life you desire.
What I Cover:
- What makes both positive and negative habits "stick".
- Why motivation can't be your only strategy.
- Why most people give up on new year's resolutions by the second week in January.
- How your brain works related to habits and how to manage it so that you can effectively implement new habits.
- How habits shape your identity over time.

- What is the habit you will start with? Be detailed about when and where you will do it, for how long, how intense, and with what frequency as is applicable.
