What actually motivates you long term

from More than a hot flash - Midlife unfiltered · host Stephanie Thibodeau

In this episode, I’m talking about the truth behind motivation and willpower when it comes to weight loss, confidence, and personal growth. Willpower can get you started, but it’s not what keeps you going long-term — and that’s where so many women get stuck.I’ll share why identity-based motivation is the game changer. It’s not just about the outcomes you want, like losing 20 pounds — it’s about becoming the woman who takes care of her body, her energy, and her confidence. That shift changes everything.We’ll also dive into the power of celebrating small wins, building an environment that supports your goals, and finding habits you actually enjoy — because when your actions align with joy and identity, lasting change becomes possible.Get your free ticket to the Masterclass RESET & RISE Ready to get started!
