Wrong Answers Only

About
Most people think breaking bad habits is about willpower. Jordan Blake proves that's completely backwards. In this episode, she breaks down the 2-minute method that actually rewires your brain's habit loop by identifying what your bad habits are really giving you.

๐ŸŽฏ What You'll Learn:
โ€ข Why 45% of your daily actions aren't conscious decisions (and how to hack this)
โ€ข The specific craving your brain is trying to satisfy with that bad habit
โ€ข Jordan's implementation intention formula that makes you 3x more likely to stick with new behaviors

๐Ÿ‘ค Perfect for: anyone who's tried to quit a bad habit and failed, or feels stuck in patterns they know aren't serving them.
