Let me ask you something. When was the last time you sat still for more than 30 seconds without reaching for your phone?


If you had to think about that… that’s exactly what pushed me to run this experiment in February.


For 30 days, I went off social media and coffee. Not as a detox. Not as some wellness challenge to post about. But because I was genuinely getting annoyed at myself.

I wasn’t doom scrolling for hours or anything dramatic. But there was this low-grade pull… this constant need to check my phone. And I was like, right. That’s enough.

So I did something about it.


And what I discovered was confronting… but also incredibly freeing. Because it turns out this isn’t really about willpower at all.


That’s what I’m diving into in this episode. The science behind dopamine addiction loops, and how things like social media and caffeine quietly shape your energy, your focus, and your baseline mood, often without you even realising it.


I also share what actually happened in those first few days (it wasn’t easy), the unexpected shifts that followed, and why so many of us aren’t actually “low energy”… we’re just constantly coming down from stimulation spikes.


This isn't about quitting everything forever. I'm back on social media and having some coffee, but I'm smarter, wiser and more in tune with the impacts of my actions.


So let’s start asking a better question: What’s actually running you right now?

And deciding, with intention, what gets to stay.
