Save Time. Change Your Environment
from The House Project - Living Room Conversations Hosted by Stephanie Jean-Pierre
A few sour blueberries made me quit blueberries for years. I didn’t decide to. My environment decided for me. In this episode, I explain what’s actually behind that. Whether you call it ABA or not, the science is the same: what’s around you shapes what you do. It shapes why you go to work, where you live, why you keep clicking back to the shopping tab, and why your toddler throws things when they’re upset. We cover: Why willpower and “trying harder” usually aren’t the real problem The “ABA is too rigid” critique, and why structure isn’t the same as rigid Simple changes at home, like giving shoes and toys one place, closing the tabs and having fewer things in reach Why organized doesn’t mean spotless (this episode has nothing to do with cleaning your house) This week’s one thing: notice the thing in your environment that makes you snap. Next week, we’re talking about replacement behaviors. Living Room Conversations is from The House Project, a pediatric ABA clinic in Laurel, Maryland. Learn more at thehouseprojects.org. Stay strong, stay consistent, and remember: your best life is just one reinforcer away.
