We spend more time staring at screens than we do sleeping. And somehow, we've completely normalized it.

In this episode, we dig into the uncomfortable truth about screen addiction — what it's actually doing to our brains, our relationships, and our ability to just exist without a device in our hands.

Is this a real addiction? Or a habit we're too lazy to break? Josh thinks it's more complicated than either answer. Lisa has a confession that's going to make you feel seen.

We get into:

  • Why screen addiction hits differently for Gen X and Xennials
  • The dopamine loop that keeps us scrolling (and why willpower isn't enough)
  • What a digital detox actually looks like — and why we'd probably fail one
  • How our phones are quietly rewiring our closest relationships

This isn't a lecture. It's two siblings getting brutally honest about a problem they both have.
