With 2024 at our doorstep, your thoughts might turn to setting one, or several, New Year's resolutions. Whatever your goals - losing weight, getting a new job, setting a personal best in a race, or making your bed every day - it's important to make sure you're putting yourself in a position to succeed mentally, physically and emotionally. Professor Julie K. Norem from Wellesley College joins Nichole this week to talk about the psychology of New Year's resolutions: why we make them in the first place, the science of goal-setting, and how to treat yourself well as you work toward your goal.
