160: My Invisible Addiction: When Checking Became a Habit

What if the addiction stealing your focus doesn’t look like one?

I thought I’d broken free from my phone — no social media, no endless scrolling. But in Bali, I discovered a different kind of addiction… one that hides behind productivity, messages, and staying “connected.”

In this short, honest episode, I share the quiet moment that made me realize how easily my attention was being pulled away — and the small experiment that started bringing my creativity and calm back.

If you’ve ever felt scattered, restless, or caught in constant doing, this might be the reminder you didn’t know you needed.
