Do you ever finish a day feeling mentally exhausted... even though it doesn't feel like you've actually done that much? A few weeks ago, I disappeared for two weeks. No Instagram. No YouTube. No comments, emails, or analytics. Ironically, it wasn't the holiday we'd planned. Berni came down with COVID the day before we left, so instead of traveling, we spent most of our time at home. Looking back, that unexpected change became a gift. In this episode, I read an article that perfectly describes what so many of us are experiencing without realizing it: a brain overloaded by constant notifications, endless information, and the pressure to always stay connected. This isn't an anti-phone or anti-social media episode. Technology allows me to coach mountain bikers all over the world, build an amazing community, and do work I genuinely love. But like any powerful tool, it works best when we're in control of it—not the other way around.
In this episode we talk about:
Why your brain feels exhausted in today's digital world
What constant task-switching is doing to your attention
The surprising benefits of boredom
What these digital sabbaths give me
Small changes that can help you regain focus without giving up technology
If you've ever struggled to concentrate, found yourself reaching for your phone without thinking, or simply felt mentally "fried," I think you'll find something valuable in this episode.
