EP 668: Reader’s Question - Why Willpower Fails: Cracking the Code to Emotion-Driven Behavior Change
In this belief-shattering episode of the This Naked Mind podcast, Annie Grace tackles a question on everyone's mind: how do we explain our emotional journeys to loved ones while navigating challenging behavior changes? Many of us, especially when it comes to breaking free from alcohol, rely on willpower to muscle through, often leading to frustration and setbacks. But Annie challenges this traditional approach, introducing the revolutionary concept of emotion-driven behavior change. She explains why focusing solely on changing our actions misses the mark, and instead, we must dig into the emotional landscape that drives our habits. Listen in as Annie sheds light on the "why" behind our behaviors, empowering you to approach change with compassion and understanding, ultimately setting yourself up for lasting transformation.
