Description

I’ve officially gone screen-free after 9PM for a whole week… and it might be changing my entire life??

In this episode, I’m breaking down the surprising (and honestly wild) impact of cutting off phone time before bed - from actually cleaning my room (shocking), to finishing a sexy fairy book (that I hated?), to waking up with positive vibes like some kind of morning person.

I also talk about:

  • The night I broke the rule, and why it lowkey proved how powerful this habit is
  • My mini car scroll moment (we’re all fragile, okay)
  • How less screen time has boosted my productivity, improved my sleep, helped with emotional regulation, and made me feel like a more present parent

Oh, and there’s a letter from my son that had me ugly crying in the best way — this one's got heart.

🔑 Key things you'll find in this episode:

  • How to stop doomscrolling at night
  • Setting phone boundaries for better sleep
  • Creating a night routine without screens
  • Mental health and screen time
  • Journaling before bed
  • Parenting while healing (and trying your best)

If you’re thinking of setting a no screens rule at night or just need a cozy, encouraging listen to nudge you into a better habit... this is your sign 💫

💬 In this episode:

  • Why I’m screen-free after 9pm (and kinda obsessed)
  • The gross feeling of breaking my own rule
  • A weirdly productive week 
  • How I discovered sexy fairy books were not for me
  • Parenting wins that hit deep
