EP235 How Unplugging Can Change Your Life w/Hannah Brencher
Show notes:
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 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
