Ever wonder why you keep making the same decisions you later regret? This episode uncovers the hidden mental loops and subconscious “files” that silently steer your reactions—and your life.
Hosted by VIN and SHANE of The 1% Podcast, this conversation blends real-life experience and practical psychology to explain why smart, high-functioning people still fall into emotional traps and reactive choices. You’ll learn the exact steps to break old loops and make clearer decisions fast.
In this deep dive, we explore how your brain interprets situations using old memories, emotional triggers, and stored meanings. You’ll learn how these invisible patterns shape decisions, fuel conflict, and even cause burnout. Most importantly, you’ll walk away with simple, actionable tools to interrupt those loops and choose from clarity instead of habit.
What You’ll Learn:
1. How your subconscious makes decisions before you're aware of it
2. Why you misread situations—even when you're sure you're right
3. The emotional “file system” your brain uses to interpret events
4. How past experiences hijack your present reactions
5. A practical framework to stop reacting on autopilot
