Episode Synopsis

For Feedbacks In this second episode of our mind series, we explore one of the most debated questions in human thought: How much of our “free will” is actually ours?From the shaping force of our upbringing to the subtle expectations of society, we reflect on how environments sculpt our choices long before we’re aware of them. We discuss Robert Sapolsky’s provocative challenge to free will; drawing from his book Determined, and contrast it with Daniel Dennett’s more hopeful, compatibilist view...Together, these perspectives open a deeper conversation about agency, responsibility, and the invisible threads that guide our decisions. Rather than offering a final answer, this episode invites you to rethink what it truly means to choose 🙌If you enjoyed this episode, don’t forget to give us a 5-star review and follow Beyond The Surface for more deep and thought-provoking conversations.
