'How to Fall in Love with Questions': The Behavioral Science of Embracing Uncertainty | With Author Elizabeth Weingarten
We’re often taught that not having an answer is a problem to be solved. But in behavioral design - and in life -embracing ambiguity can be a superpower.
In her new book How to Fall in Love With Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty, Elizabeth Weingarten flips the script on how we relate to the unknown. Drawing on behavioral science and her own research, she explores why our brains are so motivated to seek closure - and how that instinct can sometimes lead us away from better decisions.
Join Irrational Labs and Elizabeth Weingarten for a session on how to build a more productive relationship with the biggest questions in our lives. Together, we’ll unpack the psychology of why uncertainty feels so uncomfortable, and explore how curiosity can help us move forward when we feel stuck.
