If you've ever said things like "I need to stop snacking after dinner" or "I need to cut out chocolate," or "I need to spend less time scrolling Instagram’ and you’re still struggling to follow through, it's likely because you're focussing on everything you want to avoid, rather than things you should be doing more of. 

In this episode I walk you through how to shift your narrative from avoidance-based goals to approach-based goals, and how setting approach-based goals can make achieving your goals a whole lot easier.
