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.

The True Story About Hormones

The endocrine system – in charge of making and sending all the hormones throughout the body – is basically the musical conductor for puberty. During puberty, a network of specific glands and hormones work together like an orchestra, eventually leading to a sexually mature reproductive system along with certain smelly and awkward side effects. Listen to how endocrinologist Dr. Gillian Goddard tells the fascinating story of how hormones work throughout puberty, making a complex system so much more understandable.

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.

Coaching in the Lab: Why Am I Over-Eating?

When we’re stuck, we tear ourselves apart as if we’re being drawn and quartered by the voice of should and the voice of “f*ck it!” The nonstop negotiations and rationalizations are its own particular kind of torture. In today’s episode of The Change Lab, Dr. Heinz works with a podcast listener who is ambivalent about her weight loss goal; a part of her wants to lose weight and a part of her doesn’t want to at all. In a real life coaching session, Dr. Heinz helps her client break down the dialogue between her emotional side (her elephant) and her rationale side (her rider) and helps her see the many brilliant ways her rational rider justifies her emotional elephant’s behavior. If you have ever struggled with weight loss or diets, don’t miss this illustrative coaching in the lab episode.
