We're reasonably good at imagining what nuclear war would be like (although it'd probably be even worse than that). But it's not the same for most other complicated, really really scary risks. Eg: the UK government is still not taking seriously the risk of another pandemic - and that's despite the fact we LITERALLY JUST HAD ONE, GUYS.  And it's the same for climate change - with knobs on. For sure, our politicians, banks and cultures just aren't ready for the climate-clusterfudge. But if you're anything like me, there's a limit to how much of it you can take into your overloaded little brain as well. Why? Are we just not evolved for it? Are we doomed to sail merrily into a storm we don't want to see coming?  No, says this episode's guest, the fab Laurie Laybourn from the Strategic Climate Risk Initiative.  Yes, it's hard to wrap your head around. But Laurie thinks we're very far from doomed - as long as we first understand where we're actually starting from. Listen for a chat that's sometimes vertiginous, sometimes funny, and always inspiring. And you can't say you weren't warned, but here's Threads (1984) on iPlayer. These new-format episodes take a long time to record, script, and edit.

If you want someone to change their mind, it's best if they persuade themselves. And they're much more likely to do that if they actually *do* something new, rather than just pathetically feeling like they *should*. There's nothing like getting yer metaphorical hands dirty to show you you can do things you never thought you could  - from bleeding radiators to leading climate marches. And everyday stories of people *doing stuff* are far more effective than simply telling people there's a climate crisis going on - so why don't we tell more of them? This episode, welcome to the noggin and work of Kris de Meyer - neuroscientist, documentarian, and science communicator par excellence. Kris is the director of the UCL Climate Action Unit and one of the most requested guests for Your Brain on Climate. There ain't much about your brain that he doesn't know, so strap yourself in for some lessons in how minds really change.  Kris even has an answer to how come Dave ended up nearly getting nicked dressed as a beagle - and how societies drift slowly apart, one tiny step at a time. These new-format episodes take a long time to record, script, and edit.

Today's guest is cultural anthropologist, entrepreneur, investor, and author, Ujwal Arkalgud, and the conversation about tension paradox was different than any we've had on the show before.In it, we talk a lot about binary opposites and operating within dichotomies."You've got to ask, what are the opposites I operate within and how can I exist in that environment?" Said another way, "How can I fit within the push and pull?"As a business owner or leader, this concept informs and impacts everything – the upfront work that needs to be done, purpose, resiliency, effective human-centered sales, scaling and growth..."Using tensions is not as complicated as sometimes people think it is" and Ujwal gives a great 3-step exercise at the end of the episode to help with that. Listen in! It may transform how you think about life and, for sure, business.—Ujwal Arkalgud is a leading voice in growth anthropology and sustainable business strategy. As the founder of Investment Ark, he works with early-stage B2B startups, offering both strategic investments and hands-on coaching to help founders navigate the complexities of building resilient, sustainable businesses. Ujwal believes that growth isn't about chasing hypergrowth—it's about embracing the tensions inherent in scaling to unlock long-term success.Previously, Ujwal co-founded and bootstrapped MotivBase, a predictiveanthropology platform that he scaled to a 10x revenue multiplier. His work with Fortune 500 companies—including Target, Kroger, and General Mills—helped them decode customer beliefs and behaviors to build multi-billion-dollar private label brands.Since MotivBase's acquisition, Ujwal has also worked with mid-market private equity portfolio companies, helping businesses with $15M–$35M in revenue overcome growth challenges using his growth anthropology framework. This experience complements his passion for supporting startups and growth-stage businesses, enabling him to bring diverse insights into scaling sustainably across industries and company sizes.As the publisher of Decision Lab, a newsletter dedicated to uncovering cultural forces shaping customer behavior, Ujwal provides decision frameworks and insights to founders and business leaders worldwide. His upcoming book, The Tension Paradox (2026), explores how leaders can turn the contradictions of scaling into opportunities for innovation and resilience.Passionate about supporting the 99% of founders often overlooked by the traditional VC model, Ujwal is on a mission to help businesses grow on their own terms while building lasting impact.He'd love to connect if you're a founder, investor, or tech leader interested in growth strategies, the future of anthropology in business, or the untapped power of cultural insights.Head to https://investmentark.net/ to learn more, connect with him on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ujwalarkalgud), or sign up for his newsletter (https://decisionlab.beehiiv.com/subscribe).

Do you relate to today's guest? Tamara Hawes Woods is the founder of Cȯcomadre, a career and personal development platform designed to help women who are STARs (skilled through alternative routes) and SEEkers (those who lack skills, education, and experience) to achieve their dreams. She created Cȯcomadre on the heels of a personal and catastrophic financial loss that left her with only $3.59 in her bank account. Tamara experienced firsthand how difficult it can be for a capable, unpaid caretaker who has been out of the workforce to find meaningful work. She created Cȯcomadre to support women who are seeking meaningful work. Most of Cocomadre's population may have little paid experience that translates into resumed work and needs help to understand how the job market and industries have evolved, what roles are available, and where they would be a fit. Through Cȯcomadre, STARs and SEEkers can engage with the resources, training, and partners who can help facilitate meaningful work and purpose.Connect with Tamara and Cȯcomadre: https://www.cocomadre.com/https/classescocomadrecom/offers/iozc9kqlInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cocomadre.co/Feeling FoMo because you missed the very last BOLDly You Retreat?!

You are so much more lucky than you think, even if you think you're not. Most of us are dead proud of the good things we've done, and we tell ourselves how hard we have worked and how much we deserve it. But unfortunately we don't. This also works the other way round: we are never as much to blame for our 'failures' as we think. Thing is most things in life are down to luck: not just whether you win the lottery or meet the perfect person, but deeper stuff. Like who your parents were and where (and when) you were born.  That's a big idea to get your head around and it runs counter to most things our society tells us. And it's as true about climate change as anything else - what it means to us, and how important we think it is.  Joining Dave this episode are Will Snell and Anita Sangha from the Fairness Foundation.  They talk all about their brilliant and challenging report, Rotten Luck. You'll never look the same way at someone down on their luck again. Owl noises: — 14:23 - Branko Milanovic says here “80% of your income can be explained by the two factors of your country of birth (60%) and your parents' income position (20%)”. — 19:38 - Just World Theory, courtesy of the excellent Decision Lab. — 31:02 - Kim Stanley Robinson's Ministry for the Future: “chilling yet hopeful”. — 36:18 - The Welsh Well-being of Future Generations Act is here. — 36:49 - all rise for the UN's Summit of the Future, September 2024. — 40:45 - Over to Wiki for more on luck egalitarianism (or read Will's report). Your Brain on Climate is a podcast about human psychology vs the climate crisis: what we think, why we think it, and how it all adds up to a planet-sized emergency.  Contact the show:  @brainclimate on Twitter, or hello@yourbrainonclimate.com.

I can tell you what your problem is... So many of us have over loaded our lives.

If you've ever gotten stuck or overwhelmed making a decision, you likely have experience with Low-Quality Questions. It can seem like your brain hurls these at you, almost as an attack. The problem is: These questions are often unanswerable. (How can you tell, for example, "What's going to happen?" - "Would I be happier doing X or Y?" - "Is this the best thing to do for my career / business / family?") And when you feel like you can't move forward without the answers to impossible questions - you leave yourself nowhere to go. In this episode, I walk you through spotting low-quality questions, getting out of their stressful spin cycle, and turning them into high-quality questions that are worth answering, that will move you forward.

Do you have clear, specific goals? Are they written down? Do you talk about them with anyone regularly – check in on your progress and plans for pursuing them? Does it surprise you that most people's answers to all of these questions are NO? In this episode, I'm breaking down "goals" in a way you might not have heard before. Because I don't just want you to achieve what you want in life. I want you to know WHY you want those things, and to set yourself up to thrive EVEN IF plans go awry. The truth is: No life-changing goal is 100% guaranteeable. You can only control and predict and plan for the smallest, easiest, safest outcomes. But if you want to create an aligned life full of rich experiences, being your most unlimited, authentic self...You're going to need to set BIG goals.

This week I am joined by special guest Anne Lester to discuss the importance of educating young individuals about finances. In particular, we discuss Anne's latest book titled Your Best Financial Life: Save Smart Now for the Future You Want and its focus on individual financial responsibility. We also talk about the shift towards personal financial management, overcoming behavioral biases in saving and investing, the benefits of automated savings, and the significance of educating young individuals about finances. Watch on Youtube Retirement Savings - You're on your own Anne and I begin our chat by acknowledging a historical shift in retirement savings. Back in the day (our parents' generation and even ours, to some extent), companies would take care of their employees with pensions and retirement packages. It was normal for an individual to spend years, decades even, at the same job, or at least employer. The same cannot be said for today's economy in which most people spend a maximum of five years in any one given position.  Why does this matter? If your job isn't actively preparing you for retirement, that responsibility now falls on your shoulders. There is a lack of education and an abundance of complication when it comes to personally managing long-term savings. Let's break those key issues down to their impact on you: Educating kids and young adults on personal finance Math in elementary school covers the basics. In high school, it gets more complicated with advanced computations but most public schools do not spend much, if any time on personal finance. It is up to us parents to teach our kids about credit (cards, lending, etc), real estate (purchase, lending), and arguably most important: long-term savings. These concepts are not intuitive and they accompany two significant behavioral biases: loss aversion and present mindset. Loss Aversion and Investing We've talked about loss aversion in the past on this podcast, in particular in the episode Be More Aggressive. Anne revisits this behavioral bias that is well defined by the Decision Lab as a “cognitive bias that describes why, for individuals, the pain of losing is psychologically twice as powerful as the pleasure of gaining. The loss felt from money, or any other valuable object, can feel worse than gaining that same thing.” How does this impact investing? It explains why so many people are afraid of the stock market. Even if they know that historically speaking, they will always gain money from investing in stocks, watching the tickers and tuning into the day-to-day market volatility wreaks havoc on the psyche and impacts one's decision making. Putting money in a savings account feels safer than investing, even if we know that it is a financially detrimental decision. We just talked about this last week!

The power of repetition is undeniable. A lie, repeated often enough, can become the accepted truth. This "illusion of truth effect" applies to all areas of life, including healthcare. In the case of medications like SSRIs and SNRIs, which are commonly prescribed for depression and anxiety, the illusion of truth can have serious consequences.  The illusion of truth can lead patients to underestimate risks. They may see these medications advertised as safe and effective, without fully understanding the potential downsides. This can lead them to blindly accept the doctor's recommendations without questioning or seeking further information. Don't let the illusion of truth cloud your judgment—ask questions. This is where informed consent becomes crucial.Can Antidepressants Induce Suicide, Violence & Bizarre Behavior?Note: This podcast episode is designed solely for informational and educational purposes, without endorsing or promoting any specific medical treatments.

Are we responsible for how we behave? If so, should we feel bad about it? And if the answer to those two is 'yes' and 'yes' respectively, how do we change our behaviour?  How much of 'behaviour change' is about nudging or encouraging individuals to change, versus how much is banning bad things and making good things easier and cheaper?  And are simple answers stupid? (Spoiler: yes.) Joining Dave this month is the esteemed Professor Lorraine Whitmarsh MBE.

European businesses operating in Vietnam are exhibiting reduced confidence in the local market, resulting in a 4.5-point decline in their Business Confidence Index (BCI) from the current score of 43.5, according to a recent survey conducted by Decision Lab.

It's all very well demanding that everything happens NOW, but we're actually going to do - or not - about climate change is all about negotiation.  What happens inside those fusty negotiating halls?  How does one negotiate well and get what one wants, whether on climate or things more domestic? And does the climate have the time for us to negotiate our way out of a paper bag? Joining Dave this episode is Camilla Born MBE. Camilla's been at more top tables than you've had hot dinners, and has been there for the crunchy bits of some of the planet's most important negotiations - not least when advising COP26 President Alok Sharma.  Find out how Camilla gets her way, and what she thinks about protestors demanding the seemingly impossible. Follow Camilla on Twitter @camillaborn. We don't talk about it in the episode but Camilla and I recommend this moving piece by Pete Betts, a legendary negotiator, reflecting on everything he's learned. Owl noises: -- 08:08: Anchoring bias explained over at the Decision Lab. -- 10:16: I should probably give due kudos to the thing that I read, which is these top 10 negotiating tips by the Harvard Law School's negotiation programme. -- 16:56: it really does matter whether we phase coal 'down' or 'out', and Carbon Brief explains why. -- 19:52: Professor Lee's thoughts on tactical empathy and much else - including more Camilla - in this Inside Science episode on negotiation.

Yes you probably WOULD walk by on the other side, wouldn't you, and don't say you wouldn't, because you would.  Alas, a trio of brain wirings add up to the so-called Bystander Effect: our tendency to stand in a crowd of people watching someone flail in a canal, hoping it's not us that has to get our frock wet to jump in and save them.  In this episode Dave learns all about the Bystander Effect with Dr Gerdien de Vries from TU Delft. What is it? Why is it?

Time travel! No not like Marty McFly, but in our heads.  Backwards via memories, albeit imperfectly. And forwards, to make plans for the future and think about all the ways they could go wrong and then make new plans and then etc.  Foresight is profoundly human and completely innate to your brain: just try and sit still with your thoughts for a bit, and you'll see how often you think about what comes next.  Without foresight, no skyscrapers, art, podcasts or health service. No anything we call home, really. But also no climate crisis.  Because it turns out that just like our memories, our ability to see and guard against bad things in the future is distinctly imperfect - cf, the global pandemic - and that's got us into a whole heap of trouble.  What's to be done? Joining Dave to talk all things foresight is Dr Adam Bulley. He's a cognitive scientist and one-third of the authors of The Invention of Tomorrow: A Natural History of Foresight.

Are you doing work that matters or are you just doing what you think you should be doing? Sinking too much time into something that you should have quit working on weeks ago is an easy trap to fall into. Avoid it by asking yourself some simple questions: Why are you doing this? What problem are you solving? Is this actually useful? Are you adding value? Will this change behavior? Is there an easier way? What could you be doing instead? Is it really worth it?

There's this guy named Sid who wrote about cognitive biases over on Medium. Sid got me thinking about all the ways we make decisions based on wrong assumptions or biases. He lays out ten, right? And I just wanted to talk about the first two this week and maybe make this a series. Why? Well, because as Sid says, “Being aware of our cognitive biases helps to recognize their power in shaping our thoughts, opinions, attitudes and the decisions we make. Let's check out these effects by analyzing ten cognitive biases that shape our world today.” So, those first two are: The Availability Heuristic The Affect Heuristic. Let's start with the first one. The availability heuristic According to the Decision Lab, the availability heuristic is a bias that “describes our tendency to use information that comes to mind quickly and easily when making decisions about the future.” It's basically memorable moments that are made influence our decisions in ways that they shouldn't. The decision lab has a great example. “Imagine you are considering either John or Jane, two employees at your company, for a promotion. Both have a steady employment record, though Jane has been the highest performer in her department during her tenure. However, in Jane's first year, she unwittingly deleted a company project when her computer crashed. The vivid memory of having lost that project likely weighs more heavily on the decision to promote Jane than it should. This is due to the availability heuristic, which suggests that singular memorable moments have an outsized influence on decisions.” And this sucks because bad memories are easier to remember than good ones. And that means we aren't making our decisions logically. This happens because our brains need shortcuts. We like shortcuts because it's less energy. So we recall the strongest facts, the most biggest memories. The first step to avoid this bias is to know it exists, right, and maybe have a baby pause before we make our decision and think about why we're making it. The Affect Heuristic According to the verywellmind, “The affect heuristic is a type of mental shortcut in which people make decisions that are heavily influenced by their current emotions.1 Essentially, your affect (a psychological term for emotional response) plays a critical role in the choices and decisions you make.” It's another shortcut. And it's about how good or bad something or someone feels. They give this example: “Imagine a situation in which two children arrive at a local park to play. One child has spent a lot of time playing on swings at a neighbor's house, so he has nothing but positive feelings when he sees the swing set at the park. He immediately makes the decision that the swings will be fun (high benefit, low risk) and runs to play on the swings. “The other child, however, recently had a negative experience while playing on the swings at a friend's house. When he sees the swings at the park, he draws on this recent negative memory and decides that the swings are a bad choice (low benefit, high risk).” Basically, we aren't relying on facts to make choices; we're relying on emotions. Politicians and retailers know this and use fear to influence decisions because fear is a really strong emotion. Jerks, but clever jerks. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Don't just always make automatic decisions. Pause. Sniff. Figure out where those decisions are coming from. RANDOM THOUGHTS ABOUT PYTHAGORAS SHOUT OUT!

According to the Mind over Money survey by Capital One and The Decision Lab, 77% of Americans report feeling anxious about their financial situation. If you are in this group, you need to listen to this episode. Do you know where your money goes or do you have an adviser managing it for you? If you feel stuck when it comes to your money then this episode is for you. I am excited to chat with Dr. Wagner about all things money, especially about physicians and their money. Dr. Wagner is a hand surgeon and a self-described Money Nerd. She used to be a Money Ostrich, and kept her head in the sand about all things money, until one day her interest was piqued by a stock trading webinar, of all things! She was drawn to learn more about stocks, investing, and ultimately all things Personal Finance. As she discovered how investing really worked, she took a look at her own investments (set up by a financial adviser) and saw that they left a lot to be desired. So she took back the reins, invested her own money, and created a simple system for managing her personal finances, so that she could keep on top of everything in just 30 minutes a month. Now she teaches other physicians how to master their personal finances, and she's on a mission to help as many doctors reach financial wellness as possible! She graduated from SUNY Downstate College of Medicine, completed a General Surgery residency at Temple University Hospital, a Plastic Surgery residency at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and a Hand and Microsurgery fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis.

I believe this to be the most important podcast I've released to-date. I first heard about Matt and his blue light blocking glasses (Ra Optics) on Ben Greenfield's podcast years ago. Ever since then, I had wanted to get him on my podcast to talk about light as well. Well, we made it happen and although we do talk about light, we spend time discussing something even more profound. LISTEN to find out. Matt Maruca started Ra Optics after a decade-long health journey, in which he learned that we are not defined by our genetics, but have the opportunity to create our lives through our environmental choices and our mindset as well (a science called “epigenetics”).He learned that light and circadian rhythms were the most significant and most overlooked environmental factor for health. No matter how clean his diet was, nor how many supplements he took, he couldn't get healthier as long as his “Light Diet” was toxic. This is because we are beings of light, and light energy and the timing of light throughout the day controls how our metabolism can utilize food. After all, it makes sense: we are beings of light; the sun provides energy for all life on earth, and all food is just stored sunlight energy!

In this episode of the podcast, Brooke chairs a roundtable discussion at the intersection of risk, scenario planning and cybersecurity. His guests are Sanjay Khanna, Strategic Advisor and Foresight Expert, and Advisor to The Decision Lab; Alan Iny, Global Lead for Creativity and Scenarios at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), and Michael Coden, Global Lead for BCG Platinion's Cybersecurity Practice. Together they discuss the human and systemic vulnerabilities that expose us to cybersecurity risks, and how scenario planning and creative problem solving can help mitigate such threats. Drawing from countless real-world examples of major global crises, they argue that although our best thought-out plans may never materialize, the process of planning itself is invaluable. Some topics discussed include: The guests' recent thought leadership on cybersecurity, including two potential future cybersecurity scenarios - one reflecting greater multi-stakeholder cooperation, the other reflecting a more fragmented, individualistic response. Balancing a need for individual awareness and responsibility around cybersecurity with a wider systematic approach to the challenge. If human error is the root cause of cybersecurity breaches, how can we help people avoid such errors? The case for scenario planning, not as a prediction tool, but as a mechanism to prepare for a range of plausible scenarios. Real-world examples of how scenario planning has enabled international organisations to prepare for risks that bear similarities to events such as Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this episode of The Decision Lab podcast, Brooke is joined by Olivier Sibony, co-author of Noise, and experienced consultant and researcher focused on how to improve the quality of decision-making. He is currently a professor at HEC Paris, and Associate Fellow at Saïd Business School at Oxford University. This episode explores the three categories of noise, and how they can affect our decision making in ways that can be incredibly difficult to detect. Olivier draws on real-life examples to illustrate this and proposes several strategies to mitigate and avoid noise when making important decisions. Some topics we discuss include: Biases versus noise: how they differ How to conceptualize a judgment and judgment error What the three different categories of noise look like, and how they can skew decision making Why companies that depend on the judgments of many people should conduct a noise audit Decision hygiene and preventative strategies to improve decision making Practical steps that can be integrated into organizations to optimize judgments and reduce noise

In this episode of the Decision Lab, Brook speaks with Wendy De La Rosa, co-founder of the Common Cents Lab, and host and creator of the new TED series; Your Money and Your Mind. Wendy was a founding member of Google’s behavioural economics unit, helping over 30 teams to optimize product strategy and design, customer engagement and retention, as well as revenue. In their discussion, Brooke and Wendy discuss the changes in the economy caused by the pandemic, as well as strategies and techniques that business and individuals can use to help improve their financial standing. Some of the topics include: The way we make financial decisions, and why more education is not necessarily the best solution to our financial difficulties. How to ensure your environment is set up for success. Removing the shame surrounding financial failure, and the benefits of having more open conversations about our finances. How employers can help support their teams’ productivity by taking some of the stress out of their financial situations through initiatives like Financial Health Days. The importance of discussing finances in our personal relationships.

One job of a leader is to analyze risk appropriately, then make a decision on how to move forward. However, our perception of risk is not always rational. Your ability to discern the difference between perceived risk and real risk will make a difference. This episode deconstructs perceived risk to help you know the difference.
