Description

We all dream about what life might be like if we were not connected 24/7 to our phones. Well, Carlos Whittaker did it!


We sit down with Carlos to discuss his new book, "Reconnected," which chronicles his journey of going tech-free and living with monks and the Amish. Carlos shares his transformative experience, including the challenges of tech withdrawal, the things he missed and didn’t miss the most, and how this journey has fundamentally changed his life.

We also delve into the importance of solitude, the value of not ALWAYS knowing something, and practical steps we can all take to disconnect and reconnect with what truly matters. Carlos is a motivational speaker and author who spreads positivity daily. His Instagram account @loswhit is a true pleasure to follow as he helps change the lives of total strangers by enlisting his “instafamilia” to raise money for good causes and good people.

Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation on the impact of technology and the power of embracing simplicity and stillness.
