Just about everyone is looking to be a bit more happy in life and I am one of those people. Just saw a post from liminal (@Liminal1988) where they shared this: “A big part of being happy is being excited. Be excited for everything - making a cup of tea, seeing a friend, the next episode of your favorite show, buying something you've been saving up for, sunsets, traveling, falling in love. Live a life you are excited about.” This got me thinking about a lot of things to get excited about in my life. A cup of coffee, doing this podcast, spending time with my wife and family & friends, etc. This also got me thinking about John O'Leary's interview with Carlos Whittaker - where they have a great conversation on the lost art of having a real connection to our lives! A big part of being happy is discussed in this episode. Find it on John's site HERE. You can also watch it live on Youtube HERE. Amazing connections in this episode with this post that I found.

How do we hear God's voice in a world full of noise? What impact do our screens have on our mental health? Carlos Whittaker has made a career out of connecting with people through a device. An author, podcaster, and a leader of a social media community known as the Instafamilia, Carlos has used the power of connection for doing incredible things. And yet, he found himself in a place where the constant connectivity to his phone left him disconnected to what matters most. Carlos decided to embark on an incredible journey in which he would go screen free for 7 weeks and spend time with those who lived without the same incessant attachment as those in the modern world. Carlos lived with and learned from Amish Farmers and Monks and began to see the freedom that was on the other side of disconnecting in order to reconnect. He wrote about his journey in his book called Reconnected: How 7 Screen Free Weeks With Monks and Amish Farmers Helped Me Recover the Lost Art of Being Human. In this episode, Davey and Carlos talk about the impact our screens are having on our mental health, why silence and solitude are so important for our spiritual connection to God, and how to hear God's voice in our pain. If you've noticed that you are more connected than ever and yet are left feeling completely disconnected from the parts of yourself and your relationships that make you human, this episode will invite you to discover how to stay present and connected to the very moments that make up your life.   Website: https://www.carloswhittaker.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/loswhit/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CarlosWhittaker/ Book: Reconnected: How 7 Screen Free Weeks With Monks and Amish Farmers Helped Me Recover the Lost Art of Being Human https://a.co/d/8EDFTBc Episodes #9 and #10 with Carlos Whittaker: https://www.nothingiswasted.com/podcast1/episode-09 https://www.nothingiswasted.com/podcast1/episode-10 Church and Ministry Leaders: Join us for The Healing Leader Roundtable on March 6, 2025 in Indianapolis.

Carlos Whittaker is an author, podcaster, and global speaker who is backed by, as he puts it, “the power of a massive Instafamilia.” Perhaps it's no wonder, then, that when he decided to spend 23 hours a day in silence at a Benedictine monastery, he experienced physical detoxification symptoms—including heart palpitations.  Whittaker and Moore talk about their experiences of spending time screen-free and how it has changed them. They discuss the relational focus made possible by time apart from devices and the transformative effects of communal living. They consider how Christians engage with time, why it's important to savor experiences, and how believers might reclaim the practice of solitude.  Ultimately, they speak to the potential for a healthy relationship to technology and discuss what it may look like to pursue it.

I'm so glad to have Carlos Whittaker with us this week. A lot of people are languishing in their souls these days. Between the state of the economy, strain in relationships, lack of trust in leaders, and the landscape of our political scene, I've heard it said by many, "I just feel flat." Today, we're talking about overcoming dullness in our souls and how to let go of false responsibilities. We're also going to unpack Carlos's 7-week experiment of going completely screen-free, and, what the brain scans revealed both before and after the seven weeks.

On today's episode of the podcast, I have a conversation with my good friend, Carlos Whittaker. Carlos is many things (pastor, speaker, author), but you might best know him through his Instagram @loswhit.Well, Carlos recently conducted a 7-week experiment where he didn't look at a single screen. Think about that. Literally no screen (while traveling through airports, the tv in his home, maps on his phone… none of it!). Instead, he spent time with Benedictine monks and Amish farmers, learning the art of reconnecting with life beyond his screens.Listen in as Carlos shares the valuable things he learned and gives us super practical steps we can take to reset our relationship with screens and step into a life of real connection with one another.

This week on Typology, we welcome back Carlos Whittaker, author, podcaster, and global speaker…and Enneagram 3. If you remember, last time he was on the show, Carlos thought he was an Enneagram 9. We suggested he investigate the Enneagram 3, and that's what we talk about today, as well as his brand-new book, Reconnected: how seven screen-free weeks with monks and Amish farmers helped me recover the lost art of being human. Carlos shares his journey of self-discovery and vulnerability as he embarked on a seven-week screen-free experience that allowed him to uncover layers of his personality and confront feelings of loneliness, shame, and grief.  He shares how this experience helped him discover and appreciate the importance of solitude, authenticity, and true connection. Carlos' story serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing process of self-discovery and the courage it takes to confront our true selves. If you're interested in exploring the Enneagram, understanding the Type 3 personality, or simply seeking inspiration for your own journey of self-discovery, I encourage you to listen to this episode.
