What if everything you've been told about willpower is wrong? What if beating yourself up for "lack of discipline" is actually keeping you stuck?

Most of what we call "willpower failures" are actually design failures. The real science of behavior change shows us that follow-through comes down to three simple elements: cues, convenience, and consequences. When we change the prompt, make the action the easiest option, and attach a small immediate win, our success rate skyrockets, even when motivation is just average.

And, yet, most of us are constantly berating ourselves over willpower that was never the real problem to begin with.

In this episode, we demystify change. We're myth-busting the biggest lies about behavior change, the ones that keep us trapped in old patterns, erode our self-trust, and prevent us from reaching our goals.

You'll discover what actually predicts follow-through (spoiler: it's not what you think), why your current approach might be sabotaging your progress, and how to redesign your environment for automatic success.

We're stopping the self-blame spiral and working with the brain instead of against it.
