Putting it All Together

In this episode, Jen and Sarah put the nuts and bolts of behavioral change together and go over some examples!

Episode Outline/Takeaways

• The nuts and bolts of behavior change for your health include a Why, a Wellness Vision, and SMART Goals

• Sometimes it can be confusing how all of these fit together!  

• Remember that your Why is basically your Purpose

  1. Your Wellness Vision is based on your Why! The Wellness Vision is what you ideally want your health to look at in order to live your Why.

  2. Remember:

     1. It should be positive

        1. It should be in the present tense as this creates cognitive dissonance between where we are now versus where we want to be! 

  3. SMART Goals are the steps we are going to take to achieve our Wellness Vision and live our Why!

  4. Remember:

           2. Attainable

           3. Relevant

           4. Time-Bound
