In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas and guest Sarah Tierney (co-instructor inside The Health Mindset Coaching Certification) break down the psychology of New Year’s resolutions, motivation, and sustainable behavior change. They explore why about 40% of people set resolutions each year, why most struggle to follow through, and what truly separates short-term goals from lasting transformation.

You’ll learn the science behind the fresh start effect and the concept of temporal landmarks (like the beginning of a new year or a birthday) can how these things can boost motivation, improve your mindset, and help you reframe past failures. Whether you love resolutions or have given up on them altogether, this episode will help you approach goal setting with more purpose, self-awareness, and confidence so your progress actually lasts all year long. Of course, this episode includes tangible tips to help you when coaching your clients, too!
