“Use the Rule of 100 to assess your risk tolerance and ensure your retirement income remains stable.”
Imagine this: You walk into work on a normal Tuesday, coffee in hand, only to be called into an emergency all-hands meeting. Your division is being dissolved.Or perhaps your phone alerts you to another presidential directive that threatens your livelihood or community.Or a routine doctor's visit turns into a life-altering diagnosis, and treatments and medical appointments take the place of canceled plans.Or you stare at the remains of your home after a natural disaster tore through your region.In an instant, everything changes. Your carefully laid plans evaporate. The future becomes a blur. Your brain, in its protective wisdom, either goes into overdrive or shuts down completely.These scenarios have become increasingly common. When radical change strikes, most of us experience the sensation of having the rug pulled out from under us—whether through job loss, natural disaster, or events beyond our control.When our world transforms abruptly, our brains shift into survival mode, triggering the fight-or-flight response. While this reaction evolved to address immediate threats, it becomes problematic during extended periods of uncertainty, taking a significant physical toll. Research on “the selfish brain” reveals that our nervous system, attempting to minimize uncertainty, prioritizes energy flow to itself at the expense of the rest of the body, reducing oxygen and glucose delivery elsewhere.But when our instincts push us toward panic or paralysis, what actions should we take instead? Behavioral science offers a path from overwhelm to stability.You can read the Nir And Far blog post on: Finding Your Footing When The Ground Shifts Beneath You here.Nir And Far, a podcast about business, behaviour and the brain by Nir Eyal.

In this special mini episode of Behavioral Economics in Marketing, we revisit one of the most resonant ideas from Season 3 — the Intention-Action Gap, a concept that's essential for anyone looking to drive meaningful change in leadership, marketing, or personal growth. We kick things off by revisiting the original episode Intention-Action Gap on Habit Change, which explores why even our best intentions often fail to turn into consistent action. Then, we preview a brand-new companion episode, Pitfalls in the Intention-Action Gap: Why Good Intentions Fail, where we dig into the deeper behavioral traps that hold us back — from unrealistic goal-setting to cognitive overload — and share actionable tools to move from intention to execution. This teaser sets the tone for how Season 10 will work: a reflective replay, followed by a fresh, insightful expansion to help you apply behavioral economics more powerfully than ever.
Can artificial intelligence actually help you hire better people? In this episode of Choose People Love Pets, Brianna and Phoebe pull back the curtain on how they're combining gut instinct, value-driven interview questions, and AI tools like ChatGPT to make smarter, more aligned hiring decisions in their veterinary hospital. From evaluating resumes to catching red flags in interviews, they share the exact questions they ask, how they involve their team in the process, and the surprising ways AI has helped them hire for culture, not just credentials. You'll laugh (cutoff butt shorts at an interview?), you'll learn, and you'll probably leave wanting to rewrite your interview guide. Takeaways Setting clear expectations is crucial in the hiring process. Identifying red flags can prevent future issues in team dynamics. Resumes should be evaluated for presentation and experience. Cultural fit is as important as skills and experience. Behavioral questions can reveal a candidate's true character. Curiosity in candidates indicates genuine interest in the role. Hiring slow and firing fast helps maintain a positive culture. Proactive communication is key to a successful team environment. Candidates should demonstrate accountability and teamwork. Reflecting on past interview experiences can improve future hiring practices.

Why do people say one thing and do another? Why do some ads flop while others go viral? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with behavioral marketing expert Nancy Harhut to explore the science behind how people actually make decisions—and how marketers can ethically influence those instincts to boost attention, engagement, and conversions.Nancy shares decades of experience blending behavioral science with marketing strategy, revealing practical tools that business owners and service providers can use right now. You'll learn about eye magnet words that increase clicks, why the word “free” still works wonders, how to use social proof and authority to build trust, and why loss aversion might be your best sales tool. Whether you're a clinic owner, entrepreneur, or content creator, this conversation is packed with actionable insights to improve your messaging and get better results.Key Takeaways:Behavioral marketing leverages subconscious decision-making. Up to 95% of decisions are made in the subconscious mind—using behavioral prompts can dramatically improve ad performance and message retention.Certain words have proven psychological impact. Words like “you,” “free,” “new,” and “alert” are eye magnets that instinctively capture attention and drive engagement across email, print, and social media.Use social proof and authority to build trust. Testimonials, certifications, and credibility signals reduce uncertainty and help potential clients feel confident choosing your service or product.Loss aversion is more powerful than gain. Framing your offer in terms of what someone could lose (vs. what they'll gain) can double response rates and increase urgency in decision-making.About the Guest:Nancy Harhut is the Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of HBT Marketing, where she helps brands apply behavioral science to increase marketing performance. With a background as a top-ranked creative director, Nancy has led successful campaigns for major global clients and was named a Top 10 Digital Marketer by the Online Marketing Institute.

When it comes to money decisions, the numbers don't always win. This week, we're diving into how behavioral finance influences the way we approach big purchases—like buying versus leasing a car or choosing a home that stretches the budget. While one option might make the most sense on paper, your lifestyle, habits, and even emotions may lead you in another direction.If you've been with your car insurance company for 25 years, but switching providers offers better coverage, lower deductibles, and hundreds in savings—what do you do? For many, the emotional weight of loyalty outweighs the financial upside of making a change.Leasing isn't just for cars anymore—it's becoming a business model for everything from HVAC systems to washers, dryers, refrigerators, and water heaters. While leasing can ease upfront costs, it often comes with long-term financial drawbacks. We break down the numbers, compare short- vs. long-term costs, and discuss why lifestyle convenience often trumps financial optimization.Is tapping into your home equity ever a smart investment move? If your potential returns exceed your mortgage rate, maybe—but it's not just a math equation. We examine the behavioral and practical factors: cash flow, interest rates, risk tolerance, and the peace of mind that comes from being debt-free. Plus, what if you already have extra cash—should you invest it or knock down the mortgage?Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Many of us believe that hard work and persistence are the key to achieving our goals. But is that true when it comes to the pursuit of happiness? This week, we revisit a conversation with psychologist Iris Mauss, who explains why happiness can seem more elusive the harder we chase it, and what we can do instead to build a lasting sense of contentment. Then, we bring you the latest edition of our segment "Your Questions Answered." Behavioral scientist Alison Wood Brooks answers listener questions on how to be a better conversationalist — from what to do when the other person isn't contributing, to how to stop others from interrupting.Miss our original episodes with Alison Wood Brooks? They're called "We Need to Talk" and "The Conversations that Bring Us Closer."

Don is joined by Mike DeJoseph from Vanguard to unpack the meaning and real-world impact of Advisor's Alpha—Vanguard's research showing how good financial advisors can add up to 3% annually in net value to client portfolios. They break down the origins of the concept (internally coined back in 2001), clarify what alpha actually means, and dig into where that added value comes from: behavioral coaching, tax-efficient strategies, lower costs, smarter withdrawal planning, and disciplined asset allocation. Mike emphasizes that unlike investment alpha, which is a zero-sum game, advisor alpha is a positive-sum benefit rooted in planning and emotional guidance. They challenge misleading marketing from high-fee brokers, expose the damage of poor advisor behavior, and highlight what separates a “good” advisor from a truly great one—namely, those who align clients' values with their money. The conversation ends with a forward look at AI's role in advice: not replacing advisors, but augmenting their ability to listen, guide, and support clients like financial therapists. 0:04 Don introduces rare guest: Mike DeJoseph of Vanguard 0:35 The origin of Vanguard's Advisor's Alpha paper 1:27 What is alpha?

Stephen shares how his personal and professional experiences have fueled his mission to create spaces that foster safety, dignity, and belonging for people in crisis.

Behavioral Inertia has become a buzzword in marketing, often associated with the stubborn action (or inaction) of a target audience. As anthropologists, Sonika and Gabe are often approached with the challenge of designing interventions that break inertia; however, there's more to inertia than simply recognizing it and knowing how to overcome it. In this episode, they break down the emotional motivators of inertia, the possibility of leveraging and rewarding inert behaviors, and why it's paramount to focus first on what a target audience is doing as opposed to what they aren't.Follow us on LinkedIn

Read the full transcript here. In light of the replication crisis, should social scientists try to replicate every major finding in the field's history? Why is human memory so faulty? And since human memory is so faulty, why do we take eyewitness testimony in legal contexts so seriously? How different are people's experiences of the world? What are the various failure modes in social science research? How much progress have the social sciences made implementing reforms and applying more rigorous standards? Why does peer review seem so susceptible to importance hacking? When is observation more important than interpretation, and vice versa? Do the top journals contain the least replicable papers? What value do Freud's ideas still provide today? How useful are neo-Freudian therapeutic methods? Should social scientists run studies on LLMs?

In this academic-themed interview episode of Decoding the Gurus, Matt and Chris sit down to chat with Dorsa Amir and Chaz Firestone (@chazfirestone) about their recent paper 'Is Visual Perception WEIRD? The Müller-Lyer Illusion and the Cultural Byproduct Hypothesis.'In a conversation that serves as a welcome tonic to the endless lamentations of the gurus about academic groupthink and closed-minded silos, Dorsa and Chaz discuss the interdisciplinary nature of their work, debates around universal vs. culturally specific psychology, and the strength of evidence that visual perception varies between cultures. We also learn about the dangers of being STUPID: Studying Topics Uninformed by Prior Investigations in the Discipline, and attempt to uncover just how much Chaz enjoys popping balloons.A fun one that might even leave you a little bit more optimistic than usual!LinksAmir, D., & Firestone, C.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Anonymous: I had fatigue, body pain and gallstones. Taking malic acid for gallstones but pain and fatigue went away. What does it mean when malic acid eliminates body aches? Does Malic acid address root cause issues? Is malic acid safe to take while I run my big 5 labs. Nakul: Hello Dr. Cabral, I'm a big fan of your podcast and your approach to chronic health challenges. You're helping a lot of people heal - please keep up the great work. I was diagnosed with CIRS last year, which is an inflammatory response caused by a genetic predisposition to be unable to remove inhaled biotoxins (like mold and endotoxins) with the adaptive immune response. I've been dealing with reduction in vision (from what I suspect is brain inflammation caused by toxicity), and alopecia areata, in addition to food sensitivities and allergies. I've been using cholestyramine and other binders which have helped, but would love to know your thoughts and recommendations on how biotoxin illness can be treated through naturopathy. Thanks for your help! Jen: Thank you for taking my question, Dr. Cabral! I listen and learn from you every day. My question is about behavioral change at the root cause ~ This one thing in my life I desperately want to WANT to do it because it is good. And by not doing it, I am acting in a way that is incongruent with my career/mission. And that causes me much mental anguish. I know that when I am able to solve this conundrum, I will be true to myself and can help others do the same. What would be your protocol for changing behavior, not just an outward compliance, but at the very root cause/subconscious level? How thankful I am for you! I am looking forward to incorporating what I learn from you on this subject. Thank you!! Amy: Hi there. Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and insight into all things health! I have a question about microplastics in tea bags. Common knowledge is that steeping tea bags is a huge source of microplastics. I'm wondering how concerned you feel we should be about this, as I'm driving myself crazy. Some companies use unbleached tea bags that are glue free,heat sealed, and claim to be plastic free. Would those really be safer? Looking forward to any insight on how much concern a casual tea drinker should have. Grace: Hello looking for some advice regarding gum and tongue health. I am female, 26 years old. I get painful inflamation of my gums, inflammed taste buds, canker sores, and scalloped tongue. Typically these symptoms show up around my menstrual cycle and clear up in my follicular phase. I try to oil pull to help with the inflamation, ive cycled L-lysine and I have not seen any big changes in my symptoms. Also, I have a unrelated question regarding flushing of the face. I have issues of face flushing that is extreme and uncontrolable. It is not just when I may be embarassed it happens even when I talk about something passionately or am excited. I dont know why this happens and how I can control it.

Michal Pollack joined me to discuss how she uses her training in Behavior Analysis to help her with her personal health and fitness goals. Michal is a Clinical Director at Apollo Behavior. In this episode, we talk about: How she got her start in Applied Behavior Analysis. How she found her way to Apollo, and what she enjoys about working there. How she realized that getting fit doesn't require playing team sports, or being an athlete more generally. How spending time abroad during a gap year motivated her to adopt a healthier lifestyle. How going to the gym regularly helped her improve her emotional wellbeing. How she developed grocery shopping habits that helped her eat healthier meals. How she doesn't weigh herself frequently, and the rationale for this practice. We both talk about the pros and cons of wearable devices, and how I use The Whoop Strap (note, this is an affiliate). I want to make clear that during this podcast, it's important to note that neither of us are health or fitness professionals. We're not attempting to provide specific advice for listeners that's outside of our scopes of expertise. Instead, a better framing of this episode is to consider this a conversation between two BCBAs talking about how they apply behavior-analytic principles in their own lives. As such, if you're looking to make changes to your fitness, please consider working with a credentialed professional, with the input of your primary care provider. You can follow Michal on TikTok or LinkedIn here and here. If you'd like to learn more about working at Apollo, you can read about them here. Articles and resources mentioned: Camp and Hayes (2012).

I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it. Does priming work, or is it a myth?
