When was the last time you jumped in a pile of leaves without taking a picture of it? And do you know what not doing this is doing to your nervous system?  In this week's episode, Dr. Josh talks about what it means to go analog in a digital world. He covers why our screens have quietly become our masters, what half-attention teaches our kids, and the small two-degree shifts that bring us back to our own soul, our spouse, and our kids. You don't have to get rid of your devices. But you may need to get rid of your vices.  Here are some highlights:  <ul><li>Anything you can't fast from owns you.</li><li>Connection comes from small two-degree shifts, not one radical decision.</li><li>Kids notice your continous partial attention. When they say "look at me," they deserve all of you.</li><li>Go analog: find what works for you (e.g. no dings, phone stays inside when you play, one screen-free room, one screen-free time of day.)</li><li>Boredom isn't the enemy. It's where creativity starts.</li><li>Use screens to create, not just consume.</li><li>God often speaks in the silence, and our noise can drown Him out.</li></ul>Show Notes:  Looking for one-on-one coaching with Dr. Josh to be famous at home? <a href="https://www.famousathome.com/individualcoaching" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.famousathome.com/individualcoaching</a> Men, sign up for the Living Legacy Cohort.

Go Analog: Small Shifts for a More Present Life

For some reason, we inherently believe that joy is a byproduct of success. Yet, we finish the project, celebrate for five minutes, and move on to the next thing, waking up one day confused as to why the joy didn't seem to follow. In this episode, Dr. Josh shares why so many leaders and parents lose joy, and what joy really is: not a feeling or a byproduct of success, but a present-tense experience rooted in our trust in God. Where happiness depends on circumstances; joy depends on position. Here are some takeaways and highlights:  <ul><li>Ask: does my family experience me as proud of what they do, or delighted that they exist?</li><li>Screens keep us in the left brain. Relational joy lives in the right brain.</li><li>Gratitude has to be experienced, not just listed.</li><li>Your calendar is discipling you. What is it teaching you about joy?</li><li>How and why God scheduled joy. </li></ul>Show Notes:  Men, sign up for the Living Legacy Cohort. Starts Jan. 2027.
