Browsing the internet there is a high possibility to stumble on new and interesting material that unexpectedly catches our attention. This was the case with a psychology channel I’ve recently found on youtube. Psychology is a topic I've never been interested in, that’s why it surprised me when I caught myself listening to episode after episode available on the channel.
Interestingly, the hostess of the podcast is a doctor affected by Asperger's syndrome, which makes the analysis she makes even more interesting. As for her background, the hostess has told about her infancy, her adolescence, and about all the obstacles she encountered to mingle with others and to integrate herself in society as someone on the autism spectrum. In this process, she came across different self-analysis therapies, such as meditation, Bach flower, and others, that helped her immensely to get to know herself deeply. In this self-discovery journey, she finally came to understand something apparently self-evident but obliterated by the majority. She refers to this insight saying that since the moment in which we are conceived to our very death all our behaviors and beliefs don't come from ourselves but are inherited from our culture. In other words, we exist within a culture, and all of our beliefs about the world, others, and about ourselves are preconditioned by the environment.

Since you have stated when this occurred ("recently"), you must use the imperfect instead of the present perfect. The present perfect describes present states, in a sense, and it cannot be used to describe what has been completed and is no longer applicable: https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/25709/how-to-correctly-use-the-present-perfect-tense?noredirect=1&lq=1

The rules in other situations are rather opaque, but if a comma is used, the pronoun will likely be "which" rather than "that."

"Refers" only makes sense in the context of designating something by something else.

"The moment in which we are conceived" is fine, but "our conception" sounds better because it corresponds with "our very death."

"Rather" is not strictly necessary, but I added it to make the contrast clearer.

In other words, we exist within a culture, and all of our beliefs about the world, others, and about ourselves are preconditioned by the environment.
