## Resource

We keep blaming our phones. We keep blaming dopamine. I want to tell you something true that nobody seems willing to say out loud. Your phone is not the problem. Your phone is the solution to a much bigger problem nobody wants to name. And until you name it, no amount of screen time settings, no amount of digital detoxing, is going to do a single thing. In this episode I unpack what the phone is actually protecting you from, the first time I had to look at it in myself on a silent retreat, and the small daily practice that changes everything.
