In this review of The Willpower Instinct by Kelly McGonigal, we're talking about all things willpower: what it is, whether it's possible you really don't have any, and most importantly, how to train yourself to have MORE. If you've found yourself in the frustrating cycle of "messing up", saying screw it to the whole day, and swearing to restart on Monday, you need this episode. If you struggle with intense cravings, think about food all the time, don't know how to manage your stress without turning to food, you need this episode. If you are influenced by the behavior of the people around you or are tired of making a little bit of progress and then self-sabotaging, you need this episode.
