Behavior Bitches

Happy 2020 People!! We can’t even believe that we have reached episode 31. On today’s episode we have special guest Diah Askari AKA the real behavior man on to talk about outrage culture. We talk about how social media has made it near impossible to give constructive feedback and how the outrage culture devalues the importance of sharing ideas and tolerating different opinions. Tune in and please no #outrage. Show notes: Go follow @therealbehaviorman Become a patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/behaviorbitchespodcast

New Year, New Me is a cute saying to write on an instagram caption, but what does it actually mean? Are you trying to actually be a totally different “you” or do you want to just improve the current “you”. If you fall into the 78% of individuals who have failed at sticking to your new year’s resolutions in the past #dontLie, tune into this episode. We talk about how to set yourself up for success with this year’s resolutions. There are actually #SelfManagement strategies to use to avoid being part of the statistic. This episode is sprinkled with lots of behavioral specks of glitter so get ready because your fav Behavior Bitches are ending their last episode of 2019 with a #Bang. Show notes: Lane, L.

On today’s episode we talk all about intuitive eating. WTF is intuitive eating you may ask. Well you’re in luck because we have our girl, professional vegan chef and life coach, Yael Gutin, here to talk all about it.

On today’s episode we have BCBA, Kathryn Goerges on the show to discuss how she works with extremely challenging behavior and how important it is to look at the true function of the behavior. We talk about about the importance of conducting functional analysis in your practice and not just throwing the kitchen sink at problem behaviors. Casey was still reeling after seeing Dr. Gregory Hanley present his work on the IISCA and Practical Functional Assessment so there are a ton of amazing “AH-HA” moments during this episode. If you are struggling with trying to treat  problem behaviors and need some inspiration, then tune in baby.

Today’s episode is #InterestingAF if we say so ourselves. Liat’s new obsession is researching how to successfully negotiate a hostage situation. You know, something very important in case this ever comes up when walking down the street. Okay, kidding...hopefully. Anyways, Liat has pulled Casey in on this #obv and she’s kinda obsessed with the topic too. We are no experts on this but we’re damn good at doing our due diligence and translating what we learn into #BehavioralBreakdowns. Tune in baby!
