About this episode

<p>It's the time of year when many of us make resolutions for the year ahead. We pledge to quit smoking, eat better, or get more exercise. Then a few weeks go by, and we abandon our best-laid plans. That’s because change is hard. This week, we revisit a favorite 2021 conversation with behavioral scientist <a href="https://www.katymilkman.com/">Katy Milkman</a>, who shares how we can structure our lives to do what we know is good for us.</p><p><i>Did you catch last week's episode about why we complain — and how we can complain more effectively?
