Ep 28 - Your Brain Doesn't Like Your Goals

Welcome to the Building Your Best Brain podcast! I'm so happy you're here—learning how to rewire your brain for resilience and feel empowered by your own biology. As someone who loves a good goal (finishing my PhD and building a business over here 🙋‍♀️), I realized something was missing from traditional goal setting. Most approaches don't actually help your brain build the circuits needed to support goals from a productive, sustainable, and regulated place. In this episode, I share a new way of structuring goals—building on powerful work from neuroscience and psychology—that helps create real momentum, both internally and externally. And I didn't want to wait until the new year to share it with you. If questions or curiosities come up as you listen, drop them in the comments. I'm always happy to support you in guiding your brain to build circuits that support your goals while actually enjoying the process. Want to Go Deeper?
