Have you ever felt a surge of excitement about a big goal—only to find that a few days or weeks later, all your motivation has vanished? Maybe you started the year with strong intentions: moving your body more, drinking more water, journaling, or finally building a habit you’ve been meaning to create. But now, that initial spark feels gone, and you’re wondering what happened to your drive.
In this episode of Hot Topics, Carrie sits down with Dr. Toni Best to uncover a powerful idea: motivation is unreliable, and that’s not a personal failure. In fact, the real secret to lasting change has much less to do with motivation than we’ve been led to believe.
