How much of what you believe and choose comes from culture, not you? In this episode of Choice Beyond Logic: The Science of Bias, Kellie Best explores the hidden strings of culture—from norms and traditions to medications that keep us quiet. Discover how belonging guides the nervous system, how invisible rules shape choices, and how to see which strings guide you—and which ones bind you.
