This episode comes from Jan 2023. Very fitting for the goal-setting January theme and bar a few recent episodes from these podcasts, would argue these are still very much at the top of Maya's list.

The more we can understand how our goal seeking and motivational systems work, the more easily we can achieve our goals.
We continue our January exploration of goals, with some of the best insights I’ve come across in other podcasts.
Adding to both our scientific understanding of what’s at play, and validating our lived experience of how these things play out, these episodes contain pure gold - which I wanted to take some time to distill here today, and bring to life with some real examples.
