Want To Change Your Health In 2026? Change Your Behavior First
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It’s almost New Year’s, and we all know what that brings — new goals and big intentions. But how do you actually STICK to them this time? Not just for a few weeks, but for months… or even years. That’s what we’re digging into on today’s episode, with a focus on personal behavior and how it shapes long-term health.
We’re joined by the one and only Dr. Brad Lichtenstein. Brad wears a lot of hats — physician, professor, speaker, author, and a bunch more — and he’s been a huge influence on both Heather and Sam. In this conversation, he helps us unpack the science of behavior change, the illusion of control, and why forcing outcomes so often backfires. If you're setting goals for 2026, we think this conversation will be a HUGE help to you!
