In this podcast episode, I sit down and have a chat with Wendy Wood on habits.
Wendy Wood is the Provost Professor of Psychology and Business at University of Southern California, where she has been a faculty member since 2009. Wood completed her bachelor's degree at University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign and her Ph.D. at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
Wood's primary research focuses on the effects of habits on behaviour. She is the author of the popular science book, Good Habits, Bad Habits, released in October 2019

The discussion focuses on the science of habit formation and habit continuation. And the applications of habits in making a positive impact in day-day life.
