Why do New Year's resolutions fail 80% of the time? Even for smart, motivated people? It's not a willpower problem. It's a brain problem. In this powerful kickoff episode for 2026, Dr. Amen and Tana Amen share the simple but profound exercise they've used for decades to create clarity, balance, and real momentum in every area of life. This isn't vague goal-setting or positive thinking. It's a brain-based framework that helps you focus on what you actually want and align your daily behavior to help you get there faster. You'll get an intimate peek into the lives of Dr. Amen and Tana as they walk you through their own personal goals (relationships, finances, work, spiritual, and more) to show you how it's done. In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why your brain gets stuck focusing on what you don't want (and why that's a goal killer)
• The hidden reason most resolutions are doomed from the start
• How to define goals your brain can actually execute
• Why relationships, purpose, and health must come before hustle
• The single question that can instantly stop self-sabotage

If you're tired of starting over every January, this episode could change how you plan (and live) forever.
