This week's solo episode tackles something we all struggle with: screen time and phone addiction. After recognizing how much of my life was being consumed by scrolling, I'm making intentional changes to reclaim my time and attention. I dive into the negative impacts of excessive screen time and share the analog shifts I'm implementing . From physical journals and a commonplace notebook I carry everywhere, to switching from Google Calendar to a physical planner. We talk about the benefits of reading physical books (for vocabulary and comprehension), and I share changes I'm working toward like printing physical photos instead of keeping them trapped on devices, potentially getting an iPod to separate music from my phone, and going unplugged during family time like dinners and movie nights. I also get real about how algorithms are designed to keep us scrolling, not for our benefit, but for the companies profiting from our attention. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by screen time or curious about adding more analog elements to your life, this conversation might be the wake-up call you need.
