Reclaim Your Focus: 5 Tiny Shifts to Detox Your Digital Brain


Listen Later

Know your phone is stealing your focus, but don't quite know how to take your back your brain? Here are 5 small, science-backed tweaks that will actually help.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I broke the cycle—not with timers or guilt, but with insights from neuroscientists, psychologists, and attention experts who helped me understand the real cost of distraction, and what to do instead.

💡 You'll hear:

  • How tech companies exploit your brain’s dopamine system

  • The hidden cost of distraction most people never talk about

  • The identity shift that makes new habits actually stick

  • “20% habits” that give you 80% of the results

  • Why barriers beat willpower every time

  • And the one mindset shift that changed everything for me

Whether you’re ready to ditch social media completely, or just want to feel a little more present in your actual life, this one’s for you.
