RMV 19 Kristen Berman: You Can Design Your Behavior

Kristen Berman spends a lot of time thinking about human
behavior. As a behavioral economist, she helps people make the
changes that they want in the long term, but are hard to
implement in the short term. On this episode of Results May Vary,
Kristen talks with Chris and Tracy about the ways our environment
can alter our behavior and how incorporating small changes can
yield giant results. Kristen shares strategies and tips on how to
approach life from a behavior economist’s perspective in order to
“hack back” our lives and design the lifestyle changes we want.
In 2013, Kristen co-founded behavioral product design company
Irrational Labs, with Dan Ariley. She also founded Common Cents
Lab at Duke University, which aims to increase the financial
well-being for low-to moderate-income people in the U.S. and
abroad.
