    How to Live

    We live in era of contradictory approaches to, frankly, everything. How to parent? How to live the good life? How to eat healthfully? No one agrees and everyone is an expert. In today’s episode of The Change Lab, Dr. Heinz explores the question of how to live and comes to a conclusion that might surprise you. It’s not a question of searching for the “right” approach to life, it’s not about understanding that there isn’t one “right” approach to life, it defining an approach to life this is YOURS. As Zadie Smith wrote, you are the author of the dictionary that defines you. And once you become the author of your beliefs, principles, values, and identity, you fully step into adulthood.

    Is It Productiveness or Meaningless Movement?

    Do you ever feel like there are not enough minutes in the day to get all the things done? Or lament that you’re not using your time productively? Well, what if your fixation on productivity was actually unproductive?! I’m fairly certain it is! In today’s episode, I reflect on a heart-stopping quote from Carl Sagan that makes our secret desire to win a productivity ribbon each day seem pretty darn absurd. So, if you struggle with time management, this episode is for you. We’ll explore the liberating idea that there is, in fact, no universal “Good Use of Time Scale.” You are the only person who can determine what is and is not a good use of your time. But with this freedom come responsibility. You must define the parameters of valuable time use by getting clear on your goals and your values. And, of course, there is an eye-opening lab work exercise to help you look objectively at how you are spending your time right now. Remember, your time is not to be managed; it’s meant to be lived. So, let’s put the “own up” in grown up and start creating deliberate, self-authored days.  Show Notes: For more, follow Dr. Heinz on Instagram, or visit drsashaheinz.com/podcast Produced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.

    Setting Big Goals with Caroline Adams Miller, MAPP

    Today in The Change Lab, I’m joined by my former coach and goal-setting expert, Caroline Adams Miller. Twenty-three years ago, Caroline helped me achieve an impossible goal that changed my life. In our conversation, Caroline breaks down the difference between learning goals and performance goals and why distinguishing one from the other matters; why women need less consolation from their friends and more encouragement to go after hard goals; and how she’s approaching her next big goal…writing her forthcoming book, Big Goals, which comes out in the Fall of 2024. As Caroline reminds us, “the happiest people wake up to hard goals.” This episode is a must listen if you have big dreams, but feel stuck without a clear idea of how to realize those goals.  Show Notes: Caroline Adams Miller, MAPP Website Caroline’s Books Creating Your Best Life Getting Grit: The Evidence-Based Approach to Cultivating Passion, Perseverance, and Purpose My Name is Caroline For more, follow Dr. Heinz on Instagram, or visit drsashaheinz.com/podcast Produced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.

    My Alcohol Free Evolution Experiment: Six Week Update

    Hey lab mates and TGIM! We’re back in The Change Lab, and I’ve got an update on my New Year’s Evolution – a six-month hiatus from the booze. I started this experiment on January 1st, 2024 hoping to start waking up with the 5amers brimming with sober energy. Spoiler alert: that didn’t happen. Turns out, I’m still hitting the snooze button, and my Peloton still has abandonment issues. But, what I have discovered is that most of what made this moderate drinker not want to give up her right to drink is, well, BS. In today’s episode, I get personal about my relationship with alcohol and share the preliminary findings of my sobriety evolution experiment. And it’s not just about alcohol; it’s about our capacity to change and stepping into the joy of limitless possibility. If you need some inspiration and motivation to start your week, don’t miss this candid episode. Cheers to change! Lab Work: Take a serious–dare I say sober–look at the change you have been contemplating and do the following short exercise: At the top of a black sheet of paper write this statement and question: “I want to make this change, but I don’t feel ready. What exactly needs to happen for me to feel ready?” Write down as many responses to this question as you can and “I don’t know” is not an answer, it’s avoidance. When you’re finished, look at what you wrote down. If someone you love deeply came to you with a list of what’s holding them back from feeling ready to make a life-affirming change that looked exactly like yours, would you sign off on it? And if not, why? For more, follow Dr. Heinz on Instagram, or visit drsashaheinz.com/podcast Produced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
