The WorkWell Podcast™ is Back Today! 🎧
Help me spread the word
Thoughts on Being Well Community,
The WorkWell Podcast™ is back today and I am so excited about this season’s lineup of guests!
Our relaunch episode features Dr. Ayelet Fishbach examining the fascinating science of motivation. She is an expert on human motivation and decision making, and professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business. Forget everything you thought you knew about willpower and "pushing through" – this conversation reveals why common motivation strategies often backfire and what really works. 🧠
With special co-host Keren Wasserman from our friends at Lyra Health, we explore why failure contains the best information for growth and how to maintain motivation through life's middle periods.
My biggest takeaway?
When we make emotions themselves our goals (like "I want to be happy"), we set ourselves up for struggle. Instead, focusing on concrete goals while using emotions as feedback helps us stay motivated and resilient. 💫
