In the Season 12 finale, mental skills and peak performance expert Dr. Colleen “Flash” Hacker returns to Laughter Permitted with her signature joyful style to talk about habit formation, the role consistency plays in making meaningful change and the importance of finding our “why’s” for an action. Dr. Hacker walks us through the three components of a habit loop and then shares the five cues that go into forming a new habit. She explains how the anticipation of a reward eventually becomes the reward itself and gives guidance for inevitable regression (spoiler alert: we get to try again!). A fascinating and fun-filled conversation chockfull of actionable items you can start today. Do you have a question, comment or deep thought for Julie and Lynn?

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
