In this episode, we're talking about your tech loop, the cycle of sites and apps you check on autopilot every day. You'll hear where the concept came from, why adults and kids are dealing with the exact same issues with technology, and why we're scrolling 45 to 90 minutes more per day than we were in 2019. I share the story of a tech exec client who tracked his time and found he was spending 4 hours a day on YouTube and Reddit in 2-minute chunks, and what changed once he saw it. We get into why your app defaults are designed to hijack your attention, why awareness without shame is the starting point, and the simple questions you can ask yourself to spot your own loop.

If you've ever felt like your phone controls you more than you control it, this one's for you.
