2023 is right around the corner, so of course we'll be talking about setting up those goals for the New Year. It's easy to feel compelled to sign yourself up for big lofty goals -- like running a marathon or reading 50 books -- but it's just as easy to not make any progress on those goals. 

There's a simple trick we'll discuss in this week's episode that will get you on your path to achieving your goal!

This week's episode talks a lot about dopamine, and also why breaking things down into small pieces works better than just trying to tackle everything at once.

This first episode talks a lot about self sabotaging, and why we have a voice in our heads that tends to make us feel ridiculous for wanting to pursue goals. This is something I'm very familiar with because honestly it took me about 3 months to even publish this thing after recording it.
