Listen Later

In this week's episode of Originate Now, Jessica Higgins Chapman dives into a powerful, science-backed habit-building strategy that actually helps your creativity stick: Implementation Intentions.

Rooted in behavioral psychology, this simple “if–then” planning method helps you bypass willpower, eliminate decision fatigue, and build habits that align with your real life!

In this Episode, We Discuss:

  • Why vague goals (like “write more” or “be consistent”) don’t work
  • The exact method to turn intention into action
  • How to use cues from your day to anchor creative habits
  • Real-world examples to help you apply this in your own creative process

Listen now if you’re ready to stop stalling and start showing up — consistently and creatively!
