January brings New Year’s resolutions and the inspiration to make change but often ends up in disappointment when we can’t stick with our goals. Dave and Reb invite Amanda van Noppen on the show to explain why change, and change in our money habits, can feel so hard. On episode #464 of “Let’s Talk Money with Dave and Reb” the co-hosts explore neuroplasticity, neural networks, and the unconscious paths that define how we develop habits and what makes it hard to change. Amanda encourages listeners that although it can be hard to create new paths, we can grow and change into new habits that create more positive financial change.
“If you’re trying to change many habits, start with one,” encourages Amanda. “Doing too many things at once will overwhelm you so start with what is manageable and dedicate time to one small change while keeping the long term goal in mind.”
