The Science of Consistency & Goal-Setting as Women!

What makes some goals easy to stay consistent with—while others feel like a constant uphill battle? In this episode, I reflect on why movement has been one of the most consistent parts of my life, and how understanding the neuroscience behind goal setting and emotional significance can change how we approach our habits. I share a personal story about my grandmother’s stroke and how it shaped the way I view movement as a sacred gift. From there, we explore how the brain’s alarm system, specifically in the anterior cingulate cortex, evaluates the emotional and motivational weight of our goals—and how that determines the strength of our discipline and follow-through. We break down why some goals pull us forward effortlessly, while others require more external motivation or structure, and how to intentionally increase the emotional significance of your goals to improve consistency. We also connect this to last week’s conversation on motivation versus discipline, discussing: How emotional significance impacts goal pursuit Why movement became my anchor habit The brain’s alarm system and how it influences discipline High stakes vs. low stakes goals and how to use them to your advantage How to apply this framework to build new habits or reinforce old ones If you’ve ever wondered why some habits stick and others don’t, this episode offers both science-based insight and personal reflection to help you reset, refocus, and reframe how you approach your goals. sign up for the free Wellness Girl Chats newsletter: https://drkelsyvickdpt.substack.com/ Want a peak into what it is like building this business, the podcast interviews, and all things female founder BTS? sign up for the free Firstborn Daughter Diary: https://drkelsyvickdpt.substack.com/s... connect with us!! insta:: @dr.kelsyvickdpt & @wellnessbigsispod & @by_maven   / dr.kelsyvickdpt     / wellnessbigsispod     / by_maven   tiktok:: @dr.kelsyvickdpt   / dr.kelsyvickdpt     / wellnessbigsispod   sign up for our patreon! https://patreon.com/elaawellness?utm_... spotify, apple, & amazon podcasts:: wellness big sis:: the pod NEAP Protein: www.neapfoods.com Safely Sidekick: http://livesafely.co/shop/drkelsy (or use code DRKELSY for 10% off) Grab your very own Stakt Mat & Accessories for 10% off your order while also supporting the pod!
