Why do so many New Year’s resolutions fail — even when we genuinely want to change?

In this solo episode of Rewired, Tiffany Grimes explores the neuroscience of goal-setting, habit formation, and sustainable behavior change, and explains why willpower alone isn’t a reliable strategy for personal growth.

You’ll learn how your brain is wired for safety and efficiency (not sudden change), how micro-habits and identity-based goals create real neuroplasticity, and why nervous system regulation is a critical — and often missing — piece of lasting transformation.

This episode offers a compassionate, science-backed approach to creating goals that feel aligned, achievable, and authentic — without burnout, self-judgment, or pressure.
