27 min - How to Build Atomic Smartphone Habits
In this solo episode, I break down how to apply James Clear’s Atomic Habits framework to your smartphone behavior. If you’ve ever caught yourself doomscrolling, toggling between apps aimlessly, or grabbing your phone without thinking, you’re not alone. We’ll talk about why our phones are habit machines, how to interrupt those loops, and what it takes to build intentional, frictionless tech habits that stick, why your smartphone habits are mostly unconscious (and how to catch them).
