What is your attention costing you, and how is it shaping your relationships, your happiness, and the life you're creating?
I'm joined by relationship expert Mark Groves for a powerful conversation about the attention economy, social media addiction, and the importance of reclaiming our connection to ourselves and each other. Mark shares his personal journey of walking away from a thriving social media business after experiencing overwhelming anxiety and burnout, and what he discovered about the psychological impact of technology, the power of discernment, and choosing a life that feels aligned with who you truly are.
We explore how our addiction to distraction can keep us disconnected from our intuition, why being right can come at the expense of love, and how taking responsibility for our patterns creates greater freedom in our relationships. From setting intentional boundaries with technology to nurturing friendships and choosing curiosity over judgment, this conversation is a reminder that what you focus on expands, and that the most important things in life can't be found on a screen.

Your Practice for This Week:
Pay attention to where your energy goes throughout the day. Notice how often you reach for your phone, engage with something that creates fear or frustration, or give your attention to things that leave you feeling disconnected.
Then ask yourself: Is what I'm focusing on creating more of what I want in my life?
Choose one intentional shift. Put your phone away during dinner, reconnect with a friend, or create space for a conversation that matters.
