Do Better Pod Live Recording June 2024: How do you feel when you complete a task?
In this episode of the Do Better Podcast, Dr. Megan and Joe and members of the Do Better Collective discuss how it feels to complete a task based on an IG post about the differences people experience in feeling proud of finishing something. They also explore the research on whether it is better to focus on the process or the outcomes.
AI SUMMARY FROM FATHOM:
Meeting Purpose
Live recording of the Do Better Podcast to discuss feeling a sense of accomplishment or pride when finishing tasks
Key Takeaways
* Some feel a sense of pride/accomplishment when completing tasks, while others feel more relief at getting it done
* Neuroscience research shows focusing on the process rather than outcomes leads to greater happiness/wellbeing
* Our field heavily emphasizes outcomes (e.g. meeting goals) over reinforcing the process of problem-solving creatively
* Shifting to reinforce process over product could reduce burnout and increase motivation/effectiveness
Differing Experiences of Accomplishment
* Joe can feel accomplished crossing items off lists, but it's more about organization than happiness
* Hannah uses lists for visual support but doesn't feel joy crossing items off
* Megan used to feel immense pride completing tasks when starting Do Better, but now feels more relief
* Jennilee doesn't feel accomplishment unless there's an element of competition
Neuroscience on Process vs Outcome Focus
* Research shows focusing on the process of an activity (e.g. problem-solving) leads to more happiness than focusing solely on the end outcome/product
* Our capitalistic society heavily emphasizes and reinforces achieving outcomes/production over the process
* This outcome focus likely contributes to burnout and reduced wellbeing in our field
Shifting Practice to Reinforce Process
* We could adjust how we train/supervise staff to reinforce creativity, problem-solving, and the journey rather than just meeting targets
* For clients, we could reinforce engagement in activities rather than just correct responses
* Doing this requires a mindset shift, but aligns with increasing focus on client happiness/quality of life
Next Steps
* Explore creating a workshop/training for collective members on restructuring practices (evaluations, supervision, etc.) to reinforce process over outcomes
* Individually reflect on how to build in more process-focused reinforcement and metrics
* Continue this philosophical discussion as it could go much deeper

In this Episode of the Do Better Podcast, Dr. Megan interviews Vanessa Magallanez, BCBA about using ACT and Parent Coaching. Tune in to learn more!
AI Summary from Fathom:
Live recording of the Do Better Podcast to interview Vanessa Magallanez about incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her practice as a behavior analyst and parent coach.
Key Takeaways:
* Identifying and connecting with personal values is crucial for meaningful behavior change
* ACT helps practitioners understand the inner experiences (thoughts, emotions) driving behavior
* Focusing on the process rather than outcomes leads to more success and happiness
* Practitioners should reflect on whether services align with clients' values
Background and Getting into ACT
* Vanessa started incorporating ACT 2-3 years ago to better support parents
* Initially unsure if using ACT was within her scope, but saw positive results
* Biggest influence was realizing focus was too much on the child, not enough on parent perspective
Recommended ACT/Parenting Resources:
* The ACT Made Simple book
* Good Inside by Dr. Becky Kennedy
* Go Zen website with interactive ACT-aligned activities for kids
Incorporating ACT into Practice:
* Identifies client values and translates into actions/goals

* Helps parents reconnect with their identity beyond just being a parent
* Uses conversational, natural language rather than technical ACT terms
Goals and Branching Out:
* Create more vocational/community opportunities aligned with client interests

* Build rapport, be open to different experiences
