ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In today's episode of Overcaffeinated and Out of Effs I'm joined by Kelsey Green, who works at the intersection of community, strategy and accountability. Kelsey helps people stop stalling and start building lives that truly light them up. Today we're talking about something that's such a normalized part of modern day life that so many of us fail to see the connection to burnout for working moms: constant digital availability.
The truth is, you can't feel truly restored, creative, patient or present when your nervous system is always on alert. But when your phone is a key tool for your work, your calendar, your childcare messages, your group chats, your social media breaks, your school emails, your texts from your spouse....essentially your whole life....what are you supposed to do? You can't exactly throw it away or just not have one.
In this episode we talk about:
- How digital habits and expectations amplify the pressure to always be “on”
- Subtle signs that a mom's relationship with her devices is having a negative effect on her energy, focus and relationships
- How to stop feeling guilty for needing space from your screen
- Realistic digital boundaries to help you reclaim your focus and mental clarity, reduce the pressure to always be reachable, and create space for in-person community
- Practical strategies for using technology as a tool without losing yourself along the way
