Is It Time For A Digital Detox? with Jennie Ketcham Crooks | 334

This Is Woman's Work with Nicole Kalil

Feeling scattered, anxious, or like your brain’s been hijacked by push notifications and endless scrolling? You’re not alone.

This week, we’re diving into the digital chaos with anxiety and OCD specialist Jennie Ketcham Crooks, founder of the West Coast Anxiety Clinic, who’s helping us understand what our devices are doing to our minds… and what we can do to reclaim our focus, peace, and power.

Jennie brings clinical expertise, research experience, and guest spots on everything from Oprah to The View — and offers a smart, practical path to digital detoxing that doesn’t involve tossing your phone in a lake or moving to a cabin in the woods.

We unpack:

• How your phone is rewiring your brain (yes, really)

• Signs it’s time for a digital reset — and how to actually do it

• Why tech isn’t the enemy (but your habits might be)

• What boundaries actually work — and what makes them stick

• How to return to you — the you that exists offline

This isn’t about demonizing tech. It’s about creating space — space to think clearly, feel deeply, and live intentionally. And if that’s not woman’s work, then what is?
