It’s no secret that we’re all a little too obsessed with our phones. Never-ending doomscrolling. Escaping reality. Avoiding emotions. Relying on our phones to do the simplest tasks. Using our phones to replace human connection. It’s become blatantly obvious that we’re more than just reliant on our phones- we’re addicted, and it’s getting kinda scary.
In this episode we get real about how much time we truly waste on our phones, how we’re being robbed of our lives instead of actually living them, how we use our phones to escape reality, why social media is damaging our mental health, why consuming over creating is draining us, how our relationships are suffering, and why our phones might actually be making us dumber.
And finally, we talk about how to set real boundaries with our phones and social media so we can take back our time, relationships, and life and stop living through a screen.
