Rebranding Health as Well-being

A science-based story about creating sustainable behavior change with Michelle Segar, PhD, MPH

Have you ever wondered why it is that even people who desperately want to adopt healthier lifestyles don’t stick with them once their initial burst of motivation fades? This provocative webinar will discuss the surprising reasons this is true and also showcase a new science-based paradigm to motivate healthy behavior so it is maintained over time. Dr. Michelle Segar will explain why logic-based reasons for behavior change (e.g., better heath, disease prevention, etc.) keep people stuck in cycles of starting and stopping but not behavioral sustainability. Using story and science, she will describe an easy-to-adopt, novel approach to promoting health, wellness, and fitness behaviors that leading organizations are starting to adopt. Attendees will leave this webinar with a more strategic way to communicate about and promote the sustainable behavior necessary for achieving improved health and well-being.
