  • Why You Keep Making Drinking Decisions You Regret (And How to Stop)
    Feb 13 2025

    Ever told yourself you’d only have one drink—only to wake up regretting it? Or started the week determined to cut back, only to throw that plan out the window by Friday? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re breaking down why your brain keeps tricking you into making drinking decisions you regret and, more importantly, how to break the cycle. We’ll explore how different “versions” of you—morning-you, evening-you, social-you—battle over your choices, why decision fatigue and emotional triggers make it harder to follow through, and how social settings influence what and how much you drink. But here’s the good news: once you understand these patterns, you can outsmart them. We’re sharing practical, science-backed strategies to help you recognize these mental shifts in real time and set yourself up for success—without relying on willpower alone. If you’ve ever wondered, “Why do I keep making the same mistakes with drinking?” this episode is for you.

In this episode, we’re taking a fun, eye-opening look at the top 5 beer commercials from this year’s Super Bowl. From celebrity cameos to humor and nostalgia, these ads do more than just entertain—they shape how we think about beer, socializing, and even the game itself. I’ll break down the clever psychology behind these ads, why they work so well, and how they reinforce drinking culture in ways we don’t always notice. Plus, one ad this year totally flipped the script—and it might just change how you see beer commercials moving forward.
