its impact on our beliefs about alcohol.

She starts by sharing her recent experiences and introduces the concept of confirmation bias.

Carol explains how confirmation bias influences our decision-making and provides examples related to beliefs about red wine and alcohol's effects on sleep.

Takeaways

Confirmation bias is the tendency to seek out and interpret
information that confirms our existing beliefs.

Confirmation bias can influence our decision-making and
hinder critical thinking.

It is important to be open to adjusting our beliefs based on
new information and to consider alternative perspectives.

For Christian women, seeking guidance from scripture and
prayer can provide strength and support in overcoming drinking habits.
