Do You know What It's Like to Be Homeless?

Recently, I lost my phone and was thrown back to the stone-age of communication. No access to the internet, apps, no lyfts, not even pocket change for the bus. 

Not only was I unable to communicate with anyone I knew, I also got a glimpse into what it's like to disappear in the middle of a crowd. 

Tune In to This Week's Episode As I Share:

  • Why your digital detox may be highly overrated, 
  • Attempt to answer the age-old question: Can man/woman live without communication?
  • How truth is sometimes stranger than fiction, as a stolen smartphone and my IMac sent me down a rabbit hole this week, I'm still climbing out of.
