Have you felt like your brain has been getting dumber and dumber the past year?

In January, during episode 34, I talked about how I thought Covid ADD was a real thing.  I shared how I hadn’t really been reading as much in 2020.  That I usually LOVE to read, but my phone had taken over my brain and instead I would scroll on social media or read the news.


In todays episode I delve into the 8 steps to hack your phone, so your brain can be in charge again.


  1. Check and mark your screen time stats. Here is how to check screen time on iphone.  Here is how to check screen time on android.

  6. Change your phone to black and white
