What if you could have a great day every day? That’s the goal of Therese Huston, PhD, a cognitive scientist at Seattle University. Therese has some proven techniques to help you take charge of your day – particularly on those days when things don’t seem to be going your way. She joins me to explain exactly how to implement them. Therese is author of the book Sharp: 14 Simple Ways to Improve Your Life with Brain Science (https://amzn.to/4jgEOSe).
