Setting Standards Instead of Goals for Lasting Changes in 2026
In the final episode of 2025, Dr. Emily Kiberd of the Thyroid Strong Podcast addresses women with Hashimoto's, discussing the pitfalls of traditional goal setting and the benefits of establishing personal standards to create lasting changes.

By setting standards like consistent strength training and protein-forward nutrition, and incorporating supporting actions, Dr. Kiberd offers a framework for sustainable lifestyle changes.
