In this episode, I’m opening up about something that’s been a personal struggle for years—and I know I’m not alone in it: being constantly plugged in.
I’ve worked in marketing for over a decade, which means screen time has pretty much always been part of my daily life. But even outside of work, I’ve found myself stuck in endless scroll cycles, picking up my phone for no reason, and wondering why I feel so mentally drained all the time. If you’ve ever felt the same, this conversation is for you.
We’ll talk about the real effects screen time has on our brains, our moods, our nervous systems, and even our relationships. I’ll share what I’ve learned, what I’m still working on, and the little red flags I’ve noticed when I’ve gone too far down the digital rabbit hole.
In this episode, I talk about:
• Why our brains are overwhelmed by screen time (it’s not just in your head)
• How dopamine and constant notifications keep us hooked
• The emotional cost of being “always on”
• What it means when we can’t stop checking our phones—even during downtime
• The signs your nervous system is begging for a break & the app I'm using that helped decrease my screen time on my phone by 80%.
