Motivation Made Easy with Dr. Shawn Hondorp

In today's episode I am joined by Dr. Shawn Hondorp as we discuss all things motivation, just in time for the new year!   Topics Discussed Include: - Shawn's journey to IFS and her specialities of disordered eating and motivation - The types of therapy modalities that were NOT working and how IFS has been beneficial for her clients and herself - What is Self Determination Theory as it relates to motivation - What is motivation - Two main categories of motivation and how it impacts us - Why shaming and critical energy doesn't lead to lasting change - IFS as a 'how' to help people make shifts in motivation   Shawn Hondorp, PhD, ABPP is a board-certified Clinical Health Psychologist and health behavior expert.  She has a top-rated podcast called Motivation Made Easy: Body Respect, True Health where she outlines effective approaches to heal from disordered eating and improve health and well-being by looking at how research and real world experience collide via conversation and personal stories.    She founded The Psychology of Wellness because she believes that freeing people up from the drain of disordered eating means more mental and emotional bandwidth available to create a more equitable and kind world. To achieve this goal, she creates supportive learning environments for professionals doing this courageous work so that they can use their unique gifts to make a bigger impact, without the burnout. She lives in Grand Rapids, MI, with her husband and two kids and pug named Teddy. Her dream vacation day is hiking along a lake surrounded by mountains holding a warm cup of coffee, followed by a delicious dinner and a soak in a hot tub with an ice cold hazy IPA.   Dr. Shawn Hondorp: Website: https://drshawnhondorp.com/ Podcast: https://drshawnhondorp.com/mmepodcast/ Instagram: @psychology.of.wellness   Natalie Deering: Website: https://www.ndwellnessservices.com/ Email: [email protected] Call/Text: (859) 320-0865 Instagram: @nataliedeering   *Please follow the podcast, rate, and leave a review*   Thanks for listening!
