But when our usage bleeds into full-blown ‘technoference’ - technology interference - there can be significant, harmful consequences. In this episode, we explore how phones can harm our friendships and romantic relationships, including: •  How phones are replacing in-person interaction  •  Why we can't help but be addicted •  The impact of 'phone snubbing' on our loved ones •  How phones are killing our sex lives •  The ways we can break our habits and find our way back to intimacy Happy listening!
