Episode 1: Critical Thinking – Reclaiming the mind in a noisy world

“Critical thinking isn’t about being clever—it’s about being aware.”

In this debut episode of Level Up: Unfiltered, Lauren dives deep into what it really means to think critically in a world full of noise, narratives, and manipulation. From confirmation bias to amygdala hijacks, this episode peels back the layers of mental programming we didn’t ask for—and shows you how to rewrite the script.
 
We cover:

• The four pillars of critical thinking
• How your brain’s built-in shortcuts sabotage you
• What social programming really is (and how to spot it)
• Why the default settings aren’t your fault—but are your responsibility
• Tools to start filtering your reality with power, presence, and purpose

If you've ever felt like the world doesn’t make sense—or that you’re not allowed to question it—this episode is for you.
