## Description

You Are Not So Smart, created by David McRaney, is a brand that aims to explore the fascinating world of self-delusion and motivated reasoning. This brand offers a variety of products and services to help you gain a better understanding of the human mind. At the core of You Are Not So Smart is the belief that we are often unaware of just how unaware we really are, making us unreliable narrators in the story of our lives. Through a blog, book, and podcast, David McRaney invites you on a journey to uncover the ways in which we develop undeserved confidence in our perception, motivation, and behavior. In addition to the informative content provided, You Are Not So Smart also offers ad-free podcast episodes through Patreon. David McRaney is also available for speaking events and consulting services, specializing in change management and conflict resolution within institutions. With You Are Not So Smart, you'll rediscover humility and reconnect with the stumbling, fumbling community of humans who are just trying to make sense of things the best they can.
