The reason you can't exercise self-control may be that you're trying too hard. Join host, fitness coach, and mindset expert Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas as she explores how the science of self-control has evolved beyond the outdated theory of 'ego depletion.' Learn why those with high self-control aren’t constantly resisting temptation but are instead experts at avoiding it. Kasey dives into recent studies and looks at the role of habits, environmental design, and automatic behaviors in reducing the need for effortful self-control.
