In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl shares his journey up the Grand Teton in Wyoming as he reflects on the complexities of risk assessment. While scaling the mountain with his friend V, Carl confronts a stark realization: his focus on the probability of falling contrasts sharply with V's concern for the consequence of dying if a fall happens. This eye-opening experience prompts Carl to examine the interplay between probability and consequence in various aspects of life, from adventurous climbs to everyday decisions like texting and driving. Carl invites listeners to think about their own approach to risk and consider how weighing both probability and consequence can lead to wiser decision-making.
