    Ep #2 - Why Willpower & Motivation Fail -The Neuroscience Of Habits, Motivation & Lasting Change

    You've tried losing weight using willpower. You've tried motivation.  And every time life gets hard, both disappear - and you're back where you started wondering what's wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. You've just been using the wrong tools. In this episode we go deep into the neuroscience of why willpower and motivation are fundamentally unreliable foundations for lasting change - and what actually works instead. IN THIS EPISODE What willpower actually is neurologically - and why it always runs outThe Radish and Cookie experiment that changed how scientists understand self-controlWhy motivation is dopamine - real, powerful, and completely hijackable by stressThe tussle happening in your brain between present pleasure and future rewardHow habits actually form in the basal ganglia - and why willpower can't create themThe habit loop: cue, craving, routine, reward - and the golden rule of habit changeThe wine rack story - and why your environment is running your behaviour right nowDecision fatigue and the Israeli judges study that explains why 7pm is the worst time to make food choicesThe PLANT Habit Builder - a five-step system that works with your brain, not against itWhy identity is the foundation that makes everything else permanentV's story - the client who stopped stress eating not through effort but through identity shift TIMESTAMPS 0:00 — Opening3:00 — The willpower myth - what it actually is and why it depletes8:00 — The motivation myth and the dopamine tussle18:00 — The neuroscience of habits - meet your basal ganglia28:00 — Environment over willpower - design your life for the woman you want to be38:00 — The PLANT Habit Builder45:00 — Identity — the foundation that makes habits permanent52:00 — Q&A57:00 — Close and discovery call invitation LINKS Book a free discovery call: https://calendly.com/kerryn-sawyer/discovery Join the free Facebook community — Plant Based Health and Weight Loss Support: https://www.facebook.com/groups/987329621622690/?ref=share Get my free plant-based weight loss guide: https://www.theplantpowercoach.com.au/weightlossguide

    Ep #1 - Why You're Not Doing What You Know You Should Do

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION Welcome to Episode One of Transform With Plants - and the question I get asked more than any other: Why am I not doing what I know I should do? You know what to eat. You have probably known for a while. So why does the gap between knowing and doing feel so impossible to close? In this episode Kerryn teaches the CTEAR model - the exact framework she uses with her coaching clients to explain why your brain works against you, why willpower always loses, and what is actually driving every choice you make around food and your health. IN THIS EPISODE Why the gap between knowing and doing is never about willpowerThe CTEAR model: Circumstance, Thought, Emotion, Action, ResultThe motivational triad - how your brain is wired to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energyWhy two women can approach their goals with different mindsets and have completely different experiences and resultsA client story that might sound uncomfortably familiarWhat Kerryn will be covering in future episodes of the podcast LINKS MENTIONED Book a free discovery call: https://calendly.com/kerryn-sawyer/discovery Join the free Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/987329621622690/?ref=share Get the free plant-based weight loss guide: https://www.theplantpowercoach.com.au/weightlossguide
