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).


Dog behavior can be difficult to decipher. Why do some dogs bark incessantly? Why do others jump on people when they come to your home? How can you get your dog to do what you want them to do?

She is a journalist-turned-animal trainer who has written about dogs for the New York Times and the Boston Globe, and other publications. She run School For The Dogs, an acclaimed training facility and retail store in NYC and she is host of the podcast, https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-train-your-dog-with-love-science-dog-training/id1355439730.
