In this episode, we are talking about joyful therapy, actionable steps for behaviour change, and how to keep patients motivated for a long time. Quotes from the episode: 1. "I think the most important thing when it comes to behavior changes that it's personal, that clients are excited to change and there's some energy there for them. I am really looking at where's the excitement, where's the spark. Once you build confidence, by following those things that you are motivated to change, then bigger and more complex things become more manageable." 2. "It is a huge aspect of our coach approach to celebrating the tiny wins, big wins, the step that was taken because it activates the reward circuitry of the brain and ultimately helps to keep the motivation going and it's fun together. The other piece of it is, sometimes the change process might seem heavy or difficult and there's this real inclination towards having fun, through it all and not getting overwhelmed by the weight of it all. I would say the celebration piece really helps to bring lightness into the mix." 3. "We don't really integrate all the experiences that we're having. Being able to have some tools to express the emotions, to name them, to process them, and metabolize as experiences can be useful. And so for some people, it could be journaling and saying "Here are some of the experiences I had today. What do they bring up for me? That insight I was feeling... Oh, I didn't realize I was still feeling some of this from that experience!" 4. "It's hard to delineate work life from home life from other life. And it's one thing that I find really helpful is to take time to reset in the day between when I might be going from working hours to home hours with my family or my friends, or with a passion project that I have. You could think of it as a transition reset to bring more presence into this moment intentionally. "Okay. I know there's always gonna be more things to do. And right now I'm going to be choosing this. I'm going to be focusing my energy on these things to be able to really create a mindful transition." 5. "I'm a huge advocate of creating a sacred space. It can be something very simple, but that is a place that you can go to when you need to reset. What makes the place sacred is the energy we bring to it. So being able to design a little area where we can go and have our quiet time or check-in time, or mindful moments is key."

We tend to launch things that are very early and get feedback. For instance, on Monday we launched a new sharing feature. I emailed all of our members to ask what they thought and I got a lot of feedback and we're launching a new version with a much improved different sharing functionality today.

A big strategy of ours has been content and the content strategy is that we want to be true thought leaders in the space of metabolism for the general populace. There really isn't a lot of research on metabolism outside of diabetes management out there.

One of the things that really drives our remote culture is this idea of asynchronicity. So whether it's an email or a Slack or anything the expectation is always that the person won't respond right away.

You have to plan ahead making sure that you supply all the details that you might need when that person finally gets to it. And I think that's been a really big key to our remote culture is not relying on people to be there in real-time. And then coming up with tools that fit into that new framework.

So we'll do video chats as well, but oftentimes they're video recording. So we'll trade back and forth video recordings with loom. Of course, we do have some synchronous meetings, but it's usually the exception rather than the rule.

Welcome our guest, Alex Mandel from Omada Health, ex-Google.

Alex Mandel is a designer, researcher, and product strategist.

A sneak peek into this episode:

"With the additional bureaucracy, there are additional resources and you can, in some ways, solve bigger problems or at least have more resources behind aiming at these problems."

"The tactic that we take is if you're in a lower motivational quality, the first thing that we need to do is raise your motivational quality. Ideally shifting from what we called, like extrinsic motivation, a financial reward, or whatever to the intrinsic motivation "I want to do this, so I can go on that bike ride" for instance.

"We have managed to distribute ownership over the team processes across the team. There's actually only one design meeting that I lead."

Today our guest is Marek Kultys, director of User Experience at BenevolentAI, an AI drug discovery company.

He designed products for clinical decision-making and reporting, for finding, sharing, and visualizing biomedical data, for running clinical trials, and for portable DNA research.

A sneak peek into this episode:

"In the biomedical context, our users always want to see more. We try not to filter and assume what might be useful, what might not be useful from the user perspective, the default option from a design side would be to list everything that we know."

"Sometimes we ask our users to just sketch and then build on top of their ideas. Some of them are so wild that we wouldn't be able as designers to even come up with these things. Those ideas come from the understanding deeper understanding of the data."

Hi guys, and welcome to Health Tech Matters. Today our guest is Nicole Cassese, Copy Lead, Content & Brand at BetterUp, ex-Headspace Standards Editor.

A sneak peek into this episode:

"Vulnerability is a strength and you're not being weak by taking care of yourself. If you're in a better state of mind and a better state of being, you're going to be able to be there for everything else."
- "It's a marathon. It is not a race. We're going to be working for many, many years of our lives. So enjoy it!"

"At the beginning of every single week, I make sure that any free time that hasn't been built into a meeting is then thrown into a writing block so that people don't overbook it. If I don't keep the writing time, then I won't have that time to get in the zone and do the best work that I can."
