In this session, we explore the key insights from Wendy’s 2019 book: ‘Good Habits, Bad Habits’, exploring the science of how we form habits, why relying on willpower doesn’t work, and practical things you can do to make lasting changes in your life.
This interview was recorded as part of our 2020 Holistic Change Summit, which featured sessions with 25 world-leading psychologists, neuroscientists, and authors, who shared their latest evidence-based approaches to behaviour change.
