Building bad habits is often like pretty frictionless.

It's like somewhat easy.

You know, nobody, the way that we all talk about building good habits where we're like,

from the Ted Audio Collective this is Design Matters with Debbie Millman. For 18 years Debbie Millman has been talking with designers and other creative people about what they do,

how they got to be who they are and what they're thinking about and working on.

I'm Chris Duffy.

I'm a comedian and each week on how to be a better human, I sit down to have an honest and hopefully funny and revealing

your podcasts.
