How would your life be different if you completely unplugged from your devices every day? How would you improve your parenting, your work, your marriage, your relationship with God? Last week in EP234 we played Part 1 of my conversation with Hannah Brencher. She is the author of the book The Unplugged Hours: Cultivating a Life of Presence in a Digitally Connected World. If you haven’t listened to that, go do that first. Otherwise, listen to how Hanna’s life has become more connected and vibrant since practicing regular unplugged hours!
We discuss:
What nomophobia is and how to address it
What to do when you unplug but no one else does
The difference between being a manager or a model of screen time for our kids
How unplugging has affected the way Hannah transitions at the end of her workday
How unplugging has affected Hannah’s definition of productivity (the good and the bad)
How unplugging has made her a better mom
How unplugging has ushered in new family traditions
How unplugging has enhanced her relationship with God
Hannah’s encouragement to moms who want to unplug but feel it’s impossible
