Ever felt like you struggled to make the right decision? Or worried that people you care about might be locked into a pattern of poor choices?

At the next Secret Science Club Online, neuroscientist Emily Falk—author of the new book What We Value: The Neuroscience of Choice and Change—appears in conversation with behavioral scientist Vic Strecher to unpack how we make both conscious & unconscious decisions at the neural level.

Whether it’s deciding what to eat for lunch or what to do for a career, changing our daily habits or other people’s minds, Falk and Strecher will explore how changing what we think about can change what we think and do, and how connecting with our core values can open pathways to more purposeful, fulfilling choices.
