🤨 Unplugged. What happened when I confiscated their devices.

When we arrived at our cabin last weekend, I did the dreaded thing: I had my teen and almost-teen hand over their devices.

You would've thought I'd asked them to cut off a limb. 

They resisted. They fought me. They fought each other.

And then—something magical happened. 

⚾ One asked the other to play whiffle ball.

🎣 The one who “hates” fishing came with and caught her first pike.

🦮 The one who normally turns down walking the dog came with me—and we talked, really talked.

🌅 The one who'd normally be gaming watched the sunset with me.

🥶 They swam in a freezing cold lake.

🔥 They made fires, roasted hot dogs, laughed, and slept deeply. 

I put my phone down too (except for a few photos). I gardened without a podcast, just listened to birds singing and kids' laughter—music to my ears. 

I felt rested, refreshed and connected to who and what's most precious to me. I feel ready for whatever the week brings!

We know unplugging is powerful. But do we actually do it?

Especially in seasons of uncertainty or transition, the temptation to constantly be plugged in, and it can feel overwhelming. You don't want to miss a thing.

But what if clarity, connection and inspiration come not from more consumption—but from taking a break from it?

❓ What could happen if you unplugged—for just one hour or two?

 I'd love to hear.

And if you're ready to disconnect from the pressures of the world and instead, reconnect to your own clarity and purpose, I can guide you through that.
