Summary

We are the most connected generation in history, and yet mental health has never been worse. In this solo episode, Cary Jack gets honest about how our phones and social media habits are quietly stealing our attention, rewiring our focus, and pulling us away from the people and moments that matter most. Cary shares eye-opening stats on screen time and its direct links to anxiety and depression, along with what actually happens when you take back control of your digital habits. From dopamine detoxes to Sunday Sabbaths, this episode is packed with real, actionable steps you can start this week. If you've been feeling distracted, disconnected, or just a little off, this episode is your reminder that peace and presence are still within reach. You just have to choose them.
