They happen because something interferes, and it feels like you. In this episode of Starting to Know, we break down why smart people make bad decisions: why people make choices that cost them money, relationships, and years\u2026 even when they\u2019re capable, experienced, and \u201cthinking it through.\u201d My guest, Ajita Shah, has spent decades working with people on the hidden patterns behind decision-making. We translate what she sees into practical, observable mechanisms, and then we build a simple calibration method you can use before your next major decision.
