In today’s episode, we’re basically here to say: hydration, less scrolling, and touching grass might actually work. We talk about the small habit changes that are making us feel mentally and physically better—drinking more water, moving our bodies, getting off sleep meds, and (gasp) spending way less time on our phones.

We also tackle one of parenting’s greatest mysteries: how to keep the Christmas magic alive when your kids are old enough to ask… questions. Is Santa still believable? Are we still believable? We discuss.

Most of this episode is a love letter to How to Break Up With Your Phone by Catherine Price, because WOW. We’re on day 16 of the 30-day Phone Breakup, our phones no longer sleep next to us (scandalous), our worst apps have been deleted (RIP), and we’ve replaced doom-scrolling with reading, walking, and cleaning like people who suddenly “have their lives together.” If your phone has a little too much power over you, come break up with it alongside us.
