What if weight loss didn’t depend on motivation, but rather on who you believe you are? In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD explores how identity and self-labels shape habits, health behaviors, and long-term weight loss. Drawing on research from James Clear, Dr. Carol Dweck, Dr. Hazel Markus, and other experts, you’ll learn how to choose a more helpful identity for the new year, and take small, sustainable actions to transform your health.
