In this episode, Carlos shares the physical and mental withdrawals of going screen-free, the surprising brain scan results that stunned his doctors, and the “lost arts of being human” he rediscovered. You’ll learn simple, practical steps to reclaim your attention, rebuild genuine community and design your own “screen-free sabbatical,” even if you only start with two hours a week. By the end, you may never look at your phone—or your life—the same way again
