EP 65: Summer Series w/ Dr Gina Cleo

from Habit Nerd Hosted by Dr Bree Hurn

In this Summer Series episode of the Habit Nerd Podcast, I’m revisiting a powerful conversation with Dr Gina Cleo — one of Australia’s leading experts in habit change and behavioural science. We dive into the psychology and neuroscience behind how habits are formed, why sleep is foundational to behaviour change, and how flexibility (not rigidity) is key to building routines that actually last. Gina shares why small, achievable changes are more effective than big overhauls, and how understanding your identity and sense of self-efficacy plays a crucial role in creating sustainable habits. 📍 Connect with Dr. Gina Cleo: Website: ⁠www.drginacleo.com⁠ Instagram: ⁠@drginacleo Book Your FREE 30-Minute Clarity Call This call is designed to help you get clear on what’s draining your energy and where to start.
