Podcasts about Digital detox

In this episode of the Fitness League, hosts Josh, Alessandra, and Joelle discuss the transformative experience of cold plunging, the challenges of balancing parenting with personal wellness, and the importance of maintaining in-person community connections. They share personal anecdotes about their experiences with cold plunges, the benefits of tracking recovery through heart rate variability (HRV), and the complexities of navigating social media as entrepreneurs. The conversation emphasizes the significance of communication within family dynamics and the need to prioritize mental health during busy seasons of life. Takeaways: Cold plunging can be a transformative experience. The cold is a tool for mental and physical resilience. Maintaining in-person community connections is vital for mental health. Balancing parenting and work requires clear communication. It's important to prioritize self-care and mental health. Social media can be both a tool and a distraction. Tracking recovery metrics like HRV can provide insights into wellness. Seasons of life require different priorities and boundaries. It's okay to say no to social obligations for personal well-being. Creating a supportive network can enhance personal and professional growth.   APPLY FOR COACHING: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/1-1-coaching SDE Method app: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/sde-method-app Macros Guide https://www.lvltncoaching.com/free-resources/calculate-your-macros Join the Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/lvltncoaching FREE TOOLS to start your health and fitness journey: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/resources/freebies Alessandra's Instagram: http://instagram.com/alessandrascutnik Joelle's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joellesamantha?igsh=ZnVhZjFjczN0OTdn Josh's Instagram: http://instagram.com/joshscutnik   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Cold Plunge Challenge 02:46 The Experience of Cold Plunging 05:49 Adrenaline and Cold Plunge Dynamics 08:40 The Aftermath: Energy and Recovery 11:20 Data Insights: HRV and Cold Exposure 14:56 Parenting Insights and Lessons Learned 17:55 Navigating Parenting Challenges 19:09 Family Connections and Nature 23:41 The Importance of Digital Detox 29:18 Balancing Work and Family Life 35:10 Communicating Needs in Parenting 40:55 Reflections on Family Dynamics

Get ready for an inspiring journey into the heart of adventure and purpose on this episode of The Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast! Host Rick Saez sits down with legendary polar explorer, speaker, and activist Sunniva Sorby. From her early days trading a computer programming job in Norway for a wild leap into outdoor leadership, to groundbreaking expeditions across Antarctica and the Arctic, Sunniva shares how embracing risk and finding her "tribe" at A16 shaped her life's trajectory.

You can contact me here:  rick@ricksaez.com   From Boardroom to Blizzard: What Adventure Taught Me About Showing Up What Happened: I used to be a computer programmer in Norway. Yep—cubicles, keypads, and killer boredom. Until one day, I stumbled on a pamphlet during a visit to my mom in Montreal. It was for an outdoor leadership school in Alberta. A few weeks later, I'd quit my job, ditched the keyboard, and traded banking spreadsheets for snowshoes. That decision launched a life of adventure I never imagined—from working at A16, where I found my first “tribe,” to skiing across Antarctica, and even tracking a polar bear named Violet in the Arctic wilds. But here's what really shifted everything. After one particularly brutal expedition where I was sick, exhausted, and convinced I couldn't take one more step, I realized something that changed me forever: Strength isn't about pushing through until you collapse. It's about listening to your body, honoring your limits, and knowing when to ask for help. That moment stripped away my ego—and gave me something far more valuable: clarity. Principle: Too many of us think success means crossing the finish line—no matter the cost. But the truth is, the finish line isn't what matters most. It's who we become along the way. And if you're only measuring strength by how much you can endure, you're missing the deeper lesson adventure teaches: real courage is found in slowing down, tuning in, and showing up—again and again, even when it's hard. Transition: The problem is, most people wait for the "right time" to go after what they want. But that moment doesn't come with a red carpet. It often shows up disguised as fear, discomfort, or a tiny whisper that says: “There's more out there for you.” If you've ever felt stuck in your head, waiting for certainty before taking the next step—you're not alone. It's not that you're lazy or lacking discipline. You've just never been shown a different way to move forward that honors your humanity and your ambition. That's Why: That's why we recorded this episode. To remind you that the wild isn't just out there—it's in you. Whether you're chasing polar bears or your next big idea, your journey doesn't have to look like anyone else's. But it does have to start with one thing: action. Call to Action: Feel stuck in your own head and unsure how to take the next step? That uncertainty isn't a dead-end—it's your invitation. Tune in to this episode and learn how outdoor adventure teaches us to push past fear and step into purpose, one moment (and one polar bear) at a time.

Spring is here for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, and as the weather starts to warm up it becomes uncomfortably obvious just how extra dependent we were on our digital devices to get us through the cold, winter months. Honestly, regardless of the time of year, most of us are probably on our devices too much; it's hard not to be when nearly everything we use is now digital, from our forms of entertainment to our work to the many tools we use to keep our daily lives running smoothly. We don't want to villainize all technology, but we do still need to admit that there are some real downsides to being constantly barraged by screens at every turn. So how do we pull back a little from our digital dependency? Join us as we discuss some realistic tips and tricks that will enable you to find more balance and engage more actively with the people and world around you.If you're enjoying the podcast we'd love it if you could help us spread the word by telling your friends, subscribing to the podcast, and leaving a rating or review.

 "Distraction hits us when we least expect it, but clarity is the anchor that keeps us steady." —Kristen WambachSHOW NOTESEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Distractions can be visual, audible, or emotional. Clarity about who you want to be is essential. Identify what is important to you in the moment. Your next right step should be clear to avoid distractions. Distractions can be self-induced or divine interventions. Getting alone with God provides clarity and peace. Distractions pull us away from our intentions, muddling our clarity, and leaving us feeling unfulfilled. Whether it's a technical glitch during an important meeting, the constant buzz of notifications, or even emotional upheavals, distractions can derail our focus and peace. Kristen's message is clear: the real issue isn't the distraction itself but our response to it. "Every distraction holds a lesson. The key is not to eliminate them but to understand them." —viaK

Ever wonder what would happen if your family just unplugged completely? No phones, tablets, TV, or devices - even for just a few hours? While this might sound challenging in today's digital world, my family takes a complete technology break for 25 hours every weekend. What started as a religious practice has become the cornerstone of our family connection, creating space for what truly matters. In this glimpse into our screen-free time, I share: - What actually fills those hours when Netflix isn't an option - How kids naturally return to imaginative play without prompting - The simple activities that create deeper family bonds - Why meaningful conversations happen more easily without digital distractions This isn't about suggesting everyone needs a full day unplugged or imposing strict rules. It's about sharing practical ideas you might adapt for your own family - even if it's just a screen-free dinner or Sunday morning. The surprising truth is that when screens go away, something beautiful happens. Children play differently. Parents connect more deeply. And time somehow feels both slower and more valuable. Whether you're looking to implement a brief weekly tech break or simply curious about building stronger family bonds, these practical insights might inspire your own version of sacred family time. Want to reclaim your family time from screens? Join parents worldwide in the Studio at https://hifam.com/studio and discover simple ways to create tech boundaries that strengthen connection without daily battles.

Alexandre Dana est le fondateur de LiveMentor, une plateforme de formation qui accompagne les entrepreneurs dans leurs projets, mais aussi éditeur, auteur, et penseur d'un monde plus attentif, plus conscient. Il vient tout juste de lancer un Carnet de curiosité, un objet qui m'a beaucoup parlé, car il entre en résonance directe avec ce que je cherche à faire avec ce podcast : approfondir, comprendre, ralentir.Dans cet épisode, j'ai eu le plaisir de recevoir Alexandre pour une conversation à la fois intime, dense et passionnée sur la place de la curiosité dans nos vies. Nous avons parlé de ce besoin vital d'explorer le monde, de ce que ça veut dire aujourd'hui d'être curieux à l'ère des contenus courts, des vidéos en boucle, des algorithmes qui nous enferment. Et surtout, comment reprendre la main. Comment ne pas se laisser happer par les feeds infinis et retrouver le goût du temps long.Alexandre m'a partagé la genèse de son carnet, ses influences (notamment le sociologue Niklas Luhmann avec sa méthode Zettelkasten), et son chemin personnel pour passer de la dispersion à la structuration. Il croit, comme moi, que notre attention est précieuse. Et que le papier est une arme puissante pour mieux apprendre, mieux penser, mieux vivre.J'ai aimé sa manière de voir la curiosité comme une boussole intérieure, mais aussi comme une résistance. Résistance à l'instantané, à l'hyper-spécialisation, à la perte de sens. On a aussi parlé d'éducation, de système scolaire, d'hyperconnexion, de fatigue numérique, de burn-out, de la joie de découvrir de nouveaux mondes, et même de confiance en soi.Si vous êtes du genre à collectionner les newsletters, à ouvrir 10 onglets sans les lire, à dire « j'aimerais prendre plus de temps pour lire mais je n'y arrive pas », alors cet épisode est pour vous. Il vous parlera, vous remuera peut-être, mais vous donnera surtout envie de sortir un carnet, un stylo… et de recommencer à penser vraiment.Citations marquantes« La vraie curiosité, celle qui devient une maîtrise, elle prend du temps. »« Prendre des notes sur papier, c'est déjà faire un premier pas vers la structuration. »« On ne résume pas la physique quantique en trois minutes. »« L'attention est devenue un acte de rébellion. »« La curiosité est peut-être le meilleur remède contre la peur de mourir. »10 questions posées dans l'interviewPourquoi as-tu décidé de créer un carnet de curiosité ?Quel est ton rapport personnel à la curiosité ?Comment as-tu pensé la structure de ton carnet ?En quoi le papier est-il une solution face à la fatigue numérique ?Comment structurer sa pensée à travers la prise de notes ?Pourquoi notre attention est-elle aujourd'hui en danger ?Quel est l'impact des algorithmes sur notre curiosité ?Comment retrouver une curiosité active et profonde ?Y a-t-il des contre-indications à la curiosité ?Comment choisir les sujets à creuser réellement ?Timestamps clés (format YouTube)00:00 Introduction et présentation d'Alexandre Dana02:00 Pourquoi la curiosité est essentielle04:00 La genèse du carnet de curiosité07:00 L'importance du papier dans l'apprentissage09:00 Le combat contre les contenus courts et la dopamine14:00 Structurer sa pensée avec la prise de notes20:00 Le concept de polymath et la pensée divergente25:00 Algorithmes, filtres et perte de curiosité32:00 Par où commencer pour ralentir40:00 Les différents usages du carnet de curiosité49:00 Curiosité, frustration et confiance en soi Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #295 Les étapes de la rencontre avec soi avec Anne Ghesquière (https://audmns.com/FBVhPXW) #206 Comment développer l'esprit critique chez les enfants?

Matt Walker MA, is a dedicated men's psychologist and international mountain guide based in Washington, USA. With a mission to help men navigate mid-life challenges, Matt empowers his clients to define success, align their values with actions, and live unapologetically. Through 1:1 coaching, group programs, immersive retreats, and transformative climbing expeditions, Matt creates opportunities for growth, adventure, and community. His work is rooted in fostering clarity, boldness, and a life lived in alignment with personal values. Matt lives in a mountain town in Washington State with his two children and balances parenting with a full workload which includes coaching individual and groups, leading climbing expeditions both professionally and personally Matt Walker Vroom Vroom Veer Show Summary Matt's Balancing Act and Life Shifts Matt discusses his work as both a mountain guide and a psychologist, supporting men through major life transitions. He is excited about the balance in his calendar between traditional coaching and field work in the mountains. Matt mentions he has a new book coming out after a 10-year publishing hiatus. He also reflects on how his values and priorities have shifted with age, emphasizing the importance of embracing these changes rather than judging oneself based on past expectations. Skepticism and the Shaping of Belief Matt and Jeffery discuss their approaches to knowledge and belief. Jeffery describes himself as highly skeptical, avoiding absolute certainty and viewing most things on a spectrum of probability. Matt agrees with this perspective, sharing an example from a memoir that acknowledged multiple viewpoints of the same experience. They discuss the unreliability of memory and the impact of mentors and teachers in shaping their worldviews. Matt reflects on how early influences expanded his understanding of career possibilities beyond his suburban upbringing. Mountain Climbing and Post-Military Life Matt shares his experience of moving from Northern New Jersey to Washington State after high school, motivated by his desire to be in the mountains following an Outward Bound course. He became involved in the climbing community, joining a group of experienced climbers and participating in significant expeditions. Matt later pursued a degree in philosophy but ultimately worked as a full-time mountain guide, leading international expeditions including the Seven Summits. Jeffery, in contrast, completed a bachelor's degree in psychology using his GI Bill after retiring from the Air Force, but chose not to pursue a career in that field. Matt's Approach to Existential Crises Matt discusses his approach to helping clients who are experiencing existential crises. He explains that he combines his background in psychology with outdoor experiences, particularly mountain climbing, to create a more effective therapeutic environment. Matt emphasizes the importance of having a guide during these experiences, comparing it to psychedelic journeys with proper set and setting. He notes that the most powerful moments for clarity and transformation occur during the descent from a summit, before transitioning back to everyday life. Matt sees his role as a supportive guide rather than actively doing the work for his clients. Challenging Experiences and Personal Growth Matt and Jeffery discuss the transformative power of challenging experiences, particularly in the context of personal growth and self-awareness. They explore how these experiences can lead to clarity, alignment between values and actions, and a sense of awakening. Jeffery shares his recent experience with a meditation app called "Way App," which he finds more effective than typical meditation apps due to its foundation in authentic Zen practices. They both agree that consistent, thoughtful practice can lead to gradual but meaningful increases in awareness and personal growth.

In today's episode of the Sunlight Podcast, I'm sharing why it's so important to review your tax return—even after you've filed. We'll also chat about the power of taking a digital detox during the busy tax season to help you reset and recharge. I'll walk you through how to understand the key sections of your tax return, what tax estimates really mean, and how to reconcile what you owed with what you paid. Plus, I'm offering some simple, practical strategies for adjusting your future payments if your income changes—so you can feel more confident, prepared, and in control come tax time. Whether you're self-employed or just trying to make sense of your finances, this episode is here to support you! Also mentioned in today's episode:  00:00 Digital Detox: A Refreshing Break 02:02 Post-Tax Filing: Key Steps for Improvement 07:16 Understanding Your Tax Return: Key Insights 12:07 Adjusting for Future Taxes: Strategies for Success 15:43 Resources for Tax Management: Programs and Support   Takeaways Digital detox can improve mental clarity during tax season. Reviewing your tax return is crucial for financial planning. Understanding your tax return helps avoid future whammies. Taxes are retroactive; you only know your tax rate after the year ends. Your total tax owed is reconciled with what you've paid throughout the year. Aim to have your tax payments equal your total tax owed. Adjust your estimated taxes based on income fluctuations. Self-employed individuals must be proactive with tax payments. Utilizing tax programs can simplify the filing process. Seek help from tax education programs for better understanding.   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!  Every review makes a difference by telling Apple or Spotify to show the Sunlight podcast to new audiences.   Links: Link to pre-order my book, Taxes for Humans: Simplify Your Taxes and Change the World When You're Self-Employed.
