Description

From the everyday to the extraordinary, our decisions shape the course of our lives.

So how exactly do the choices we make every day, and the people we come in contact with, change that course?

And how can knowing more about our brains lead to better decisions -- ones that we can feel confident in and that match our strengths and values?

Tune in as we uncover the secrets to better decision-making by understanding the inner workings of our brains.
