83: Let’s Really Deal with Our Phone Addiction

In this episode, Jason shares a powerful personal journey sparked by a trip to Croatia that completely shifted his relationship with technology. From being the guy who prided himself on instant replies and 24/7 connectivity, to someone who now deliberately disconnects. Jason walks you through the exact mindset and habits that helped him reclaim his time, focus, and presence.

He dives into why our obsession with being constantly available might actually be hurting the people who matter most, and how “batching,” time-blocking, and even a little tool called Brick can be game changers.

Whether you’re just noticing your phone habits or you already know you’re too plugged in, this episode offers a real-world perspective, a few laughs, and a practical challenge: take all that junk off your phone and be really present.
