Ever tried to build a habit, only to have it disappear into the chaos of daily life?

 

It’s not because you’re lazy or lack discipline. The real issue? You probably don’t have a strong enough prompt.

 

In this episode, we’re diving into the power of habit prompts (aka cues or triggers)—an essential yet often overlooked key to making habits stick. When you set up the right prompts, this helps behaviors happen automatically—without relying on motivation or willpower.

 

In this episode, you'll learn about:

  • The Habit Loop: Why prompts are the first step in habit formation.
  • The C.A.R. Framework: A simple, memorable way to set up effective prompts.
  • Implementation Intention: How this leads to environmental prompts.
  • Anchoring (Habit Stacking): How to attach new habits to existing ones for effortless consistency.
  • Reminders: How to use strategic cues (written, auditory, and visual) that keep your habits top of mind.

 

If you’ve struggled to stay consistent with new habits, this episode is for you. You’ll walk away with practical, science-backed strategies to make your habits stick! 🙌
