In Season 1, Episode 3: Why Your Brain Is Bad at Risk, we reveal how your “rational” mind secretly sabotages your decisions. Discover why the human brain is biologically terrible at judging real danger, and learn the psychology behind cognitive biases like Loss Aversion and the Availability Heuristic. This episode breaks down the mental shortcuts that cost you money, time, and peace of mind — and shows you how to stop fearing the wrong things and start making smarter choices.
