150. Willpower: How to Get More of It, and Why You Need Less Than You Think To Support Your Weight Loss, Health and Longevity
Is willpower something you're born with, or something you can build? In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down the science of self-control and shares research-backed strategies to help you stop running on empty by 9 PM. You'll learn why willpower gets depleted throughout the day, and why hunger makes it even worse. Drawing on the work of Roy Baumeister (whose groundbreaking "ego depletion" research explains that late-night refrigerator raid) and Stanford health psychologist Kelly McGonigal, Dr. Oldson shares surprisingly simple "willpower workouts" you can start today; no gym required. You'll also discover why the ultimate goal isn't to have more willpower, it's to need less of it, by using it strategically upfront to build habits that eventually run on autopilot. Plus, Dr. Oldson makes the case that when you feel completely tapped out, you likely have more in reserve than you think. Thanks for listening!
