What if your relationship with your phone isn’t just about screen time?
In this episode, Ashleigh sits down with Ben Krechevsky of Purpose Over Pixels to unpack the deeper ways our phones can shape our identity, self-trust, self-respect, relationships, and ability to be present for the lives we actually want to live.
They talk about why repeatedly telling yourself “I’m going to get off my phone” and then not following through can quietly reinforce the belief that you don’t keep your word to yourself—and how that can spill into other areas of your life.
They also get into the pressure to always be reachable, why willpower alone isn’t enough, what our phones might actually be helping us escape, and why moms in particular can find themselves reaching for their phones when they’re lonely, overwhelmed, bored, exhausted, or simply overstimulated.
And in one of my favorite moments, Ben leads Ashleigh through a simple breathing exercise that makes her realize just how rarely she actually slows down.
This conversation is about so much more than putting your phone down.
