Hey love!
I'm about to make you squirm.. ready? Wake-up, grab phone ASAP. Check for texts or missed calls.. none. Check for notifications.. 25. Mindlessly (and possessed by the swipe devil), start clicking IG, FB, Email.... screenshot the important stuff so you don't forget. Get out of bed, pee (while still staring at phone). Go make coffee, ohhhh, gotta add that to IG stories. Picture. Get kids dressed, they look sooooo cute, I need to add that too, right? Driving, ding ding ding... crap... I'm not supposed to touch my phone, but.... my.... hand.... is.... out... of... my... control. Drives while glancing down at random text (that totally could have waited 15 minutes). And so on. And on. And on. Does this sound familiar? I hope so because otherwise I totally suck. I think deep down I knew I had a problem. Actually I know I did. That's why I preach technology detoxing so hard. But, when I wasn't detoxing, I was on phone over-load to make up for it. Sure, I made lots of excuses. I run multiple businesses, from my phone! I have clients! I have leads and contacts that DM and inbox me every minute! What if I miss an opportunity or an important question? But the reality? I had an addiction. I was reactive. I was out of control. Step 1? Admit you have a problem. Step 2? Inventory how bad it is and face it, head on. Step 3? Focus on healing and getting better. Progress, not perfection. Installed 'moment', a free app to track the extent of my 'issue'. Barf. I know. Over the course of 2 weeks I averaged 3-3.5 hours a day on my phone... ok, room for improvement, for sure. Worse? I was picking up my phone like a trillion times a day! Okay, actually 50-70x a day but, hello? WHY? Bad for so many reasons but the number 1 reason? I AM THE EXAMPLE FOR MY KIDS. EVERYTHING THEY KNOW AND INTERNALIZE COMES DIRECTLY FROM MY ACTIONS. Drawing the line. If you ask me (and even if you don't) there is no room for future generations to get worse or more dependent on technology and the internet than we already are. Being PRESENT in today's world is a STRUGGLE. I decided that I wasn't going to 'make it okay' and sweep reality under the rug anymore. It was time to reclaim my intentionality and heal this addiction. Fact: The average human is spending roughly 3 HOURS a day on their phones. I know I was guilty! How about this stat... the average person is logging in / checking social media apps over 60x a day! Do you feel addicted to your phone like I did? Do you struggle to live a present life in a technology-driven society? Ready to stop the cycle before it's too late? Me too. After monitoring my own screen time and recognizing that... whoa, I have a problem. I decided that I was DONE being a slave to technology and took a proactive approach to limiting both my screen time, and my kid's screen time. In today's show, I will be giving you nine tips for re-claiming your life and beating screen and social media addiction, for good. Spoiler? I was able to cut my personal stats in HALF. That is a huge win on so many levels. I hope you enjoy. And hey, share this with a friend that might need some guidance on this topic. xo. Love and light, Stef

A podcast is such an amazing way to grow your audience and build a brand. It helps you share your voice, pour into your niche, and build trust. Did you know audio consumption is growing by over 30% each year? People are craving audio like never before and this is YOUR opportunity to secure your spot in a massive emerging market... podcasting. But... maybe you're thinking... what equipment do I need?

I launched my podcast in 2018 after searching for a way to scale my coaching business and grow my following in a faster, more authentic way. I decided on podcasting because I have kids (aka. video isn't my jam), and because audio is growing insanely fast and I saw an emerging trend. Last, because committing to a podcast was my way of showing up consistently and dedicating myself to my mission.
What has podcasting done for my business? Well, my podcast grew my revenue by over 98%! My community has grown by thousands and it has allowed me to touch more people than I ever could have imagined.
