In this episode I share a revelation about our relationship with technology that completely reframes why your phone feels so overwhelming—and it has nothing to do with willpower or “addiction.” I unpack the unseen biological stress of living in constant social evaluation by algorithms, why simply having a phone on the table erodes presence and empathy, and how for the first time in human history a version of you exists at social risk 24/7. You'll learn what smartphones are really doing to our relationships — and why your nervous system feels it immediately…This episode will radically change how you understand your urge to check your phone, help you release shame, and empower you to create boundaries so technology serves your life instead of extracting from it.
