Smartphones, Temptation, and Recovery: Finding Balance in a Connected World
In this episode, we respond to a deeply thoughtful message from listener Zack, who opens up about the struggle many of us face in recovery—navigating the temptations and distractions of smartphone use while still needing to stay connected for work and life.
We explore the challenges of living in a hyper-connected world where one device can be both a tool and a trap. The team shares practical tools, software options, and personal experiences for setting healthy boundaries with technology. We also dive into the importance of intentionality, accountability, and staying honest about the digital triggers that can quietly undermine recovery.
Plus, we revisit a listener favorite—Isaac’s powerful story—and discuss the idea of inviting more voices from local 12 Step groups and Sage into future episodes.
If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in an endless scroll, tempted by online escapes, or unsure how to strike balance with your phone, this one’s for you.
