Summary

In episode 4 of Home Truths, Nav and Alex go offline, well, sort of. They're talking phone addiction, doom scrolling, and where the line should sit between personal habit and outright social media ban, all while painting portraits of each other in real time. (Spoiler: Nav got an F in GCSE art. It shows.) They get into: Nav's confession of a 2.5-hour doom scroll that ate her whole evening Why "AA for phones" might genuinely be the next form of therapy Kids, iPads and the under-16 social media ban - is it the right call? The blurred line between work hours and home hours when your office is your sofa Why couples are sitting in separate rooms with separate screens The 70/30 rule, phone-free mornings, and the hour before bed And why filming a concert isn't the same as being at one Plus a Home Truth involving Zanzibar, scrubs, and a fainting incident no one saw coming. Stick around for the verdict on who paints better (it's not Nav). 📩 Got a story or a topic for us? DM @simplelifehomes on Instagram. ⭐ Loving the show? A 5-star review genuinely helps us out.
