Podcasts about Habit

Delanie Fischer chats with psychologist Dr. Jody Carrington—flipping the narrative of “we're in a mental health crisis." They explore the loneliness epidemic sweeping our generation, even amid unprecedented access to people and information. They unpack record levels of burnout, the real dangers of disconnection (including life-threatening consequences), and how our society (not our minds) is often the problem. Dr. Jody shares practical tools for emotional regulation, fostering authentic interactions, and reconnecting with the best parts of ourselves—and why nothing can replace the power of in-person connection in a hyper-digital world.

This week, Good Moms resurface an important conversation with international best-selling author and wellness thought leader, Mel Robbins. The ladies talk about why saying "i'm sorry" is annoying, weakens your power, invalidates your needs, and denies the support that you deserve. Mel leaves us with some science based tips/tools to soothe the nervous system, and gain our power back. You can expect to hear: How replacing “I’m sorry” with “thank you” shifts responsibility and restores confidence Anxiety in the body: how it starts, how it travels, and what actually helps calm it The story behind Mel’s “High 5 Habit” and the science that makes it work Why taking up space feels uncomfortable for so many women The moment Mel gathered us about “disrespecting our business” and leveling up systems Childhood patterns, internal voices, and how they follow us into adulthood What it looks like to build something out of passion before realizing it’s a real business How saying no can be a power move in negotiations and life Navigating self-doubt, self-rejection, and why affirmations sometimes fall flat The connection between trauma, survival mode, and daily overwhelm Tools like high-fiving your heart to soothe the nervous system Why celebrating yourself, even for the small things, matters more than you think Parenting, identity, and watching our children grapple with the same insecurities we once had ------------------------ Watch This episode & more on YouTube!

We live in a world where connection is constant — but presence is becoming harder to find. In this episode of the Kreatures of Habit Podcast, Michael Chernow sits down with the founders of Mindless Labs to explore how our ever-growing relationship with technology is quietly reshaping our mental health, emotional resilience, and day-to-day well-being.Together, they dive deep into the rise of digital dependence and the hidden cost of our phones — how what we consume, both digitally and nutritionally, directly impacts our mood, focus, stress levels, and overall mental clarity. The conversation opens up about stigma, isolation, and the lasting effects of the pandemic on human connection, shining a light on why so many people are struggling silently in today's hyper-connected world.Michael also shares his own “phone detox” journey, trading in his smartphone for a minimalist device to regain presence, intention, and peace of mind. Along the way, they explore the importance of routines, meditation, breath work, prayer, movement, and nature as essential tools for grounding and healing in the digital age.You'll hear insights on:How digital consumption influences your emotions and mental well-beingThe subtle ways technology shapes your habits, reactions, and focusSimple practices to reset your relationship with your phoneThe role breath-work, spirituality, and movement play in mental recoveryHow Mindless Labs is breaking barriers in mental health access and awarenessMichael's personal journey toward balance, family, and intentional livingWhether you're feeling distracted, overwhelmed by screens, or simply craving more mindfulness and presence, this episode will encourage you to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with what truly matters.If today's episode resonated with you, share it with someone who could use a reminder to unplug — and don't forget to leave a 5-star review to help us keep these meaningful conversations going.

Actors often wait for motivation. We hope a burst of inspiration will get us moving, keep us consistent, or push us to the next level. But real growth rarely starts with motivation. It starts with one small choice. In this episode of the Acting Business Bootcamp Podcast, I talk about the simple cycle that has changed my life many times over. Choice. Habit. Love. It's a framework you can use in your acting career, your training, and your personal development to build strength and momentum in a way that actually lasts. The Moment I Realized Something Needed to Change A few years ago, I was sitting on my balcony, looking out at the marina, and I caught a glimpse of myself that didn't feel like me. It wasn't about weight or appearance. It was the feeling that I wasn't living up to my potential. It was a quiet wake up call that led to one small choice. The First Step Is Always Choice A friend gave me a ten minute workout. The first time I tried it, I had to stop three times. It felt impossible. But I chose to do it again the next day. And the next. Choice doesn't feel glamorous. It's rarely comfortable. But it's the doorway to every breakthrough. How Choice Becomes Habit After weeks of choosing that workout, something shifted. It became a habit. I added more exercise. I felt stronger, even through perimenopause and menopause. Habit grows out of showing up, not out of feeling ready. When Habit Turns Into Love What once felt uncomfortable became something I enjoyed. That's the surprising part. Love is the result of consistency. Love grows from seeing your own progress. Starting Over After a Setback Recently I got very sick and couldn't exercise for almost three weeks. When I came back, I realized I had to start again at choice. Not habit. Not love. Choice. That reminder has been grounding. Setbacks simply restart the cycle. How Actors Can Use Choice, Habit, Love This structure applies to your acting technique, your mindset, your self tapes, and your business systems. Ask yourself the small but powerful question: What could I choose today that would help me reach my potential? Get Your Acting Business Audit You can take the 30 question Acting Business Audit. It shows you what's working in your acting business and what needs attention so you know where to focus next. Want Help One on One? If you want guidance or support, you can schedule a consultation.

Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit, where you can listen to a chapter of Proverbs in under five minutes. Reading along as you listen is also a great habit. The Word of God is instructional, and the book of Proverbs is practical enough to apply to everyday situations. Here's an example: Suppose a friend comes to you and asks what you think of taking medication for depression. Do you just jump in and answer according to your personal opinion, or do you ask enough questions to understand the "why" behind the problem? When we attempt to help people solve surface issues rather than root problems, we are not helping. Proverbs 18: 13 is a great reminder verse, guiding us to ask more questions rather than just blurting out an opinion: "He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him." (Proverbs 18:13)  God makes life make sense.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Shannon Hennessy, the CEO of Habit Burger & Grill. The California-based better-burger chain has grown to nearly 400 locations over its 56 years and now, with help from parent company Yum Brands, is plotting coast to coast growth. Shannon joined Habit Burger from sister chain KFC back in 2022 and took over as CEO in 2023, and she's overseeing the strategy to “double charge growth.” On the heels of Habit's Q3 earnings, which showed system sales up 3% and positive same-store sales and traffic, Shannon joined the podcast to talk about creating a fresh experience at Habit Burger as part of that growth, and about how making changes today as a restaurant leader is different even than it was just three to five years ago.In this conversation, you'll find out why:Your customers have their own unique definition of valueScaling your business requires strength in new areasThe labor line on your P&L should be seen as an investment, not an expenseYou don't have the luxury of time with brand changes — but you need to be patient with results Restaurant leaders of today must be better gamblers Your corporate and restaurant employees must be aligned as one teamHave feedback or ideas for Take-Away?

Hey friend,  Are you relying on caffeine just to make it through the day? Do you ever feel more tired, anxious, or wired after your coffee? Could your go-to energy boost actually be blocking your healing? In this episode, I'm breaking down the hidden connection between caffeine and your chronic symptoms—like fatigue, inflammation, and stress. If you feel dependent on coffee to survive the day, you're not alone. But there's a gentler, more supportive way to feel better. I'll walk you through what caffeine does to your nervous system, how it impacts recovery, and why your body may be more sensitive than you realize. We'll also talk about small shifts that support your healing—without requiring you to “give up” your favorite drink overnight.

“People may forget what you said, but they'll never forget how you made them feel.” And how we make people feel is almost always the result of one small choice. “You can't do much about the length of your life, but you can do something about its width and depth.” - Jeffrey R. Holland "The fastest way to be liked is to like first." - Lee Brower "Judgement looks for flaws: leadership looks for value."

The Habit-Based Coaching Framework Behind High-Ticket RenewalsEvery gym owner wants to change lives… But most are still stuck selling “workouts and nutrition plans” instead of the transformation clients truly pay for.In this episode, Scott Carpenter and Andy “Boy” Miller break down the real reason high-ticket programs work — and why clients happily pay $3K–$6K for a 9–12 week experience when it's structured the right way.This conversation pulls back the curtain on the Tiny Habits Method, identity-based coaching, and the systems behind mentorship programs that deliver real long-term change… not temporary motivation.

Appreciation can lift a team or quietly erode it, and Sarah Lockwood breaks down why the difference often comes down to whether people feel genuinely seen.   In this solo episode, she explains why the usual holiday scramble for company gifts rarely creates the connection leaders intend and why Thanksgiving offers a clearer moment for gratitude that feels personal instead of performative. Sarah shares how a simple note or a small, thoughtful gesture can shift how someone experiences their work, and she challenges leaders to consider what their gifts say about their culture. A day of rest signals care, a learning budget signals curiosity, and a mismatched gift signals a gap between stated values and lived values. She also covers the practical side of appreciation with tools like Goody that let teams choose their own gift while still giving leaders room to add a personal message.   Sarah closes by reminding listeners that recognition works best as a steady habit.

We all have habits we wish we could change - patterns we repeat even when we know they’re hurting us. So why is it so hard to stop? In this episode, we explore the psychology behind toxic habits. How they form, why they become automatic, and what they’re actually doing for us emotionally. We explore: • How habits become wired through repetition and reward• Why some people are more vulnerable to toxic habit loops• The role of emotional regulation and self-soothing• The four key mistakes that keep us stuck• Practical tools to implement positive habits If you’ve ever thought, ‘I know better… so why don’t I do better?’, this episode is for you.

“Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going."  That's a quote from one of my favourite people, and a friend of this podcast, Jim Rohn.  Listening to one of his lectures—for that is what they were—in 2017 changed my life, and I hope this episode will change yours.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  Discipline is unsustainable. You probably have discovered that. Yet there are many people we look at and see someone living what many would describe as a disciplined life. So how do they do it?  Well, I can promise you it's not discipline. Discipline is like a rocket used when launching a spacecraft—it's required initially to get the spacecraft off the ground, but once in orbit, the rocket can be discarded. Then the balance between forward velocity and the Earth's gravitational pull maintains the spacecraft in orbit.  And that's how these outwardly “disciplined” people do it. They decide what it is they want to accomplish—healthy eating, regular exercise, journal writing, daily and weekly planning, etc. And then they “launch”.  A lot of effort and focus is required initially, but after a few weeks, their forward velocity—or the habit—takes over and it becomes something they just do.  And you can do the same. And this week's question is about how to go from an idea to turning that idea into something you will “just do”.  So, with that said, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Anna. Anna asks, Hi Carl, for the last three or four years, I have done your Annual Planning exercise. And each year, I fail to accomplish the things I set out to do. I feel I don't have the discipline to keep my commitments. There's always something else that gets in the way. How do you help people start to live a more disciplined life?  Hi Anna, thank you for your question.  As I alluded to a moment ago, it's not really about discipline. That's a fuel that will run out eventually. Sure, it can get you started, but if you don't develop the habit or routine over a few weeks, the consistency you want will slip away, and you're back at square one.  The problem with discipline—and, for that matter, motivation—is that they rely on the human condition. For discipline, you need willpower. Willpower diminishes throughout the day.  You start with strong willpower, and as the day goes on, that power slowly wears down. But it is also dependent on how much sleep you got, whether you are in a good or bad mood, whether you are stressed or anxious, and the people around you.  You may have heard the advice to ditch your “toxic friends”. They are the ones who keep pulling you down to their level. If someone were attempting to give up smoking, the advice given is to stay away from their smoking friends.  If you surround yourself with people who hate exercise and you decide, for example, you want to take up the “from couch to 5K” programme, you're not going to find a lot of support from the people you surround yourself with. They have become what is known as “toxic friends”.  Instead of thinking you need discipline to achieve the things you want to achieve, look at what you can do to make achieving your goals easier. Imagine you decided you wanted to read more books. Many people will set the goal to read a certain number of pages or chapters each day. This method requires immense discipline to maintain consistency.  You see, people often set these goals when they are rested, unstressed, and motivated. What you need to think about is what a realistic target would be if you were tired, unmotivated, and just wanted to curl up and scroll through your phone.  A better approach would be to set a time target. For example, one of my clients wanted to finish reading the pile of books in his home office this year. He had around thirty-five books he'd bought, and they were real books, not ebooks.  I suggested to him that he set a target of reading for 20 minutes every evening before going to bed. This, he felt, was realistic on days he was tired out.  Speaking to him last week, he said he had discovered that on most days he read for well over 45 minutes, and on some days he read for over an hour.  Over the course of 2025, he's only missed two days—and those days were when he was at home, but was away on a business trip.  He finished reading the books by the end of August. He's now buying books again and is confident he'll stay on top of them.  What happened here was that my client set a realistic goal based on the worst-case scenario rather than the best-case scenario. On most days, he exceeded his set minimum, which meant he finished his goal well before the deadline.  Another factor in his success here was the set time in the evening before going to bed. That gave him an anchor point.  This is why I recommend that people who wish to write a journal do it in the morning rather than in the evening. You have more control over the morning than you do the evening. And it's a great way to begin your day with a nice cup of tea or coffee, and a place to write down your thoughts and feelings before the day gets going.  You can add to your journal in the evening if you wish, but if you want to be consistent in writing, you will find that starting your day with your journal will help you write every day.  I remember back in July when we went to Ireland to see my parents. There were my wife and my parents-in-law, and we stayed at my wife's aunt's house the night before, since she lived close to the airport and our flight was early the next morning. Waking up at 4 am with everyone running around, making sure they had everything, didn't feel appropriate for me to write my journal at that point. So I skipped it. However, by the time we got to the airport, went through security, and settled in to wait for our flight, I felt this urge to write. So, I found a small coffee shop, got a coffee and sat down to write.  The sense of relief I felt after writing my journal left me relaxed and ready for the long travels ahead.  There was no need for discipline or motivation. It had become something I do every morning, and when I don't, something feels wrong.  And that's what you are trying to do. Turning whatever it is you want to do consistently into your way of life.  This is why brushing your teeth when you wake up and before you go to bed is automatic. You learn to do it when you are young, and after a lot of nagging from your parents, it soon becomes automatic. The thought of going out in the morning without brushing your teeth probably leaves you horrified.  But if you stop and think about it, brushing your teeth in the morning is inconvenient. There's a lot to do: get the kids ready for school, prepare their breakfast and get yourself ready. Three or four minutes in the bathroom, moving your arm from left to right… Argh! But you do it.  You don't need motivation or discipline. You just do it. It's a part of your life.  I was talking with a running friend of mine recently who wakes up at 6:00 am every morning, rain or shine, and goes out for his morning run at 6:30. I asked him if he ever considered staying in bed when the wind was howling outside and the rain was pouring down. He shuddered. The very thought of not going out for his morning run shocked him.  He doesn't need discipline or motivation to get up and go for a run. His problem would be if the doctor told him to stay in bed for a few days. Then he's really struggling because staying in bed is not his lifestyle.  All those people you look at and think, “Gosh, they are disciplined” —they never think they are. To them, whatever they do is just a part of their life.  I'm lucky because I have a dog. Dogs need exercise. They love walking. And Louis is no exception. It's one of the highlights of his day. This means I need to find an hour each day to go for a walk with him. Yet, I don't need any discipline to take him for his walk. It's just something I do each day.  Similarly, at 4:30 pm, I do my exercise. 4:30 pm triggers the start of my evening routine. I exercise for an hour, take a shower, then go downstairs and cook dinner. I do this six days a week, with Saturday being the exception.  It never occurs to me not to go upstairs and exercise. If I'm not feeling great, I'll do a lighter session; sometimes I may only do some stretching. But at 4:30, I know it's time to stop work and exercise. It's just what I do. It's a part of my everyday routine.  Now, one more thing, Anna. A mistake many people make is trying to do too many things at once. When you do this, you are diluting yourself too much.  Remember, to accomplish anything, you will need some discipline and focus to begin with. You're trying to do something that is not a part of your regular life, and it will feel uncomfortable at first.  I mentioned focus there because this is when you may need your calendar or task manager to nudge you for a few weeks—reminding you that you have something to do.  It's easier to focus on one thing at a time. A trick I started using—and found very effective—was to divide the year into quarters and start one new thing each quarter. This gave me three months to develop the necessary habits to turn whatever it was I wanted to change into a solid habit.  There's no rush to accomplish these things. As Bill Gates said, “most people overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can accomplish in twelve months” Focusing on one thing at a time means you need less focus and less time.  And finally, if you were trying to do a new activity every day, you're likely to miss some days. Take the reading habit, if your goal is to read for twenty minutes every day, allow yourself some wriggle room.  Rather than thinking you failed because you missed a day, look at achieving an 80%+ success rate. It's hard to start a new activity and be consistent with it at first. It's likely you will forget or just not do the activity one day. That's okay. It doesn't mean you failed.  What matters is that you acknowledge the skip and get back to it the next day. That way, you're not looking at it as a matter of success or failure; you see it as a work in progress, and a day or two missed is not final. It just means you need to refocus the next day.  I always think of those early weeks as experimental weeks. If I find that the time of day I try to do something doesn't work, I can try other times until I find the right one when I can be consistent.  I hope that has helped Anna. Do let me know how you get on, and thank you for your question, and to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.

In today's episode, I join Michael Chernow, founder and host of Kreatures of Habit, to share what I look for before investing in an entrepreneur or a business. I explain why my first priority is always the person—not the product—and how I qualify desire, teachability, and alignment with what's working now and in the future. I also share the “thousand-step” rule that determines whether someone has the persistence to succeed and why culture, not company, is the true investment. Along the way, I reflect on the lessons learned from losing $100 million and how that experience shaped my approach to evaluating risk and leadership.

Have you ever noticed how quickly you brush off something that was actually really hard? This instinct to minimize difficulty might seem harmless, but it shapes how connected you feel to yourself and how honestly you experience your life.   In this episode, I explore the habit of minimizing difficulties: why we dismiss or dilute how challenging something was after it's over and how this pattern disconnects us from ourselves. Whether it's downplaying a tough day or pretending a painful experience was "fine," this habit can quietly erode self-trust and emotional awareness. You'll learn how to recognize when you're glossing over your real experience and what changes when you start telling the truth about what was hard.    Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/197   Join the Habits on Purpose newsletter for extra tools, prompts, and stories between episodes: https://habitsonpurpose.com/
