79 - The Iterative Mindset: Dr. Kyra Bobinet on Rethinking Motivation and Change
Episode 28
Friday, 21 November, 2025
In this episode, Kristen sits down with Dr. Kyra Bobinet—physician, public health leader, behavior change designer, and author of Unstoppable Brain—for a fascinating look at the neuroscience of motivation, failure, and change. Dr. Kyra explains the role of the habenula, the small but powerful brain structure that shapes our moods, our habits, and the moments we suddenly lose motivation—even with practices we care deeply about. Together, they explore how subtle expectations, perfectionism, and everyday "micro-failures" can shut down our desire to keep going, and why adopting an iterative mindset can transform the way we grow, learn, and navigate our lives. They also talk openly about journaling as a tool for self-awareness and sovereignty, and how it helps us understand our inner narratives, track our patterns, and gently re-enter habits that once felt overwhelming.
