The Neuroscience of Goals: Setting Resolutions that *Actually* Stick with Dr. Alex Korb


Listen Later

In this episode I’m bringing back Dr. Alex Korb to talk nerdy about the neuroscience of goal setting and goal achieving.  In this conversation, we’re diving into what’s happening in your brain when you set goals, what gets in the way of actually achieving them, how to follow through when the initial burst of motivating fades,  and how you can leverage neuroscience to set realistic goals that actually stick and that you are more equipped to follow through on. 

Dr. Alex Korb is a neuroscientist, coach, and bestselling author of The Upward Spiral. Dr. Korb has PhD in neuroscience and is an adjunct assistant professor at UCLA. He is also the founder of The Upward Spiral Method where he helps purpose-driven entrepreneurs and professionals conquer unnecessary overthinking, stress, and self-doubt. Dr. Korb has a wealth of experience in yoga and mindfulness, physical fitness, and even stand up comedy- which I think you’ll see is evident in this episode.
