The Science of Habit Change, Why GLP-1s are Disrupting It, and How To Use It To Have Better Conversations | Charles DuhiggThere's a three-part framework for analyzing, breaking, or building any habit. There's also a simple way to identify which ones might be "keystone habits" for you. And the surprising discovery of the GLP1 "habit window" suggests that some people may be benefiting more from the drugs than others. Charles Duhigg is a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and the author of The Power of Habit, which spent over three years on bestseller lists and has been translated into 40 languages; Supercommunicators, also a bestseller published in 2024; and Smarter Faster Better, a third bestseller. Mr. Duhigg writes for The New Yorker magazine and is a graduate of Yale University and the Harvard Business School. He previously wrote for The New York Times, and is a frequent contributor to CNBC, This American Life, NPR, and Frontline. He was also, for one terrifying day in 1999, a bike messenger in San Francisco. In this episode we talk about: • The cue-routine-reward framework that underlies every habit, good or bad • The "golden rule" of habit change • What "keystone habits" are and how to identify them in your own life • Charles's 45-pound weight loss on a GLP-1 and what it revealed about "food noise" • The GLP-1 "habit window," and why some people may benefit from GLP-1's more than others • Kitchen-sinking: the habit where a fight about one thing becomes a fight about everything • Meta-conversations: asking your partner what they actually need before you respond Related Episodes: The Science of Effective Communication | Charles Duhigg Weighing The Extraordinary Benefits And Disturbing Risks Of The New Weight Loss Drugs | Johann Hari Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Additional Resources: The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg Supercommunicators by Charles Duhigg This episode is sponsored by: Osea: Go to oseamalibu.com and get 10% off your first order with the code HAPPIER.

Sara Bareilles On: The Feelings You Fear Might Destroy You, What Antidepressants Actually Did to Her Creativity, and Why There's Nothing to FixPlus: her complicated relationship with antidepressants, weathering fertility struggles, and aging in public. Sara Bareilles joins Dan to discuss her new album Good Grief, a record she made after losing three close friends — Chad Joseph, Gavin Creel, and poet Andrea Gibson. The conversation covers grief as a transformative force, medication and mental health, fertility struggles and miscarriage, the creative process as spiritual transmission, aging without intervention, and patriotism as grief. In this episode we talk about: • Grief is a shortcut to the truth — it strips away distraction and forces presence • "Name it to tame it" — putting feelings into words reduces their power • Sara's fear that medication would suppress her artistry turned out to be the opposite: Lexapro felt like "a return to herself" • The creative process as clearing a channel rather than owning the output — music arrives, it isn't manufactured • "Nothing to fix" — acceptance as a countercultural act in an era of optimization • Acceptance isn't resignation — you can surrender to what is and still take compassionate action • Grief of country: loving America and mourning what it's becoming aren't mutually exclusive • Social media distorts your experience of reality — have your experience of the world in the world Sara Bareilles is a two-time Grammy winner and Tony-nominated composer whose music and lyrics powered the Broadway hit Waitress — a role she later performed herself, both on Broadway and in London's West End. On screen, she earned an Emmy nomination for Girls5eva and for her performance as Mary Magdalene in NBC's Jesus Christ Superstar Live! She has sold over three million albums and 3.5 billion streams worldwide.
