Episode 33: Summer Unplugged - What a Digital Detox Taught Us About Tech & Being Present
After a beautiful summer break, we’re back—and reflecting on what life feels like without screens, apps, and AI.
In this episode of Who Do You Want To Be?, Sabine and Abha dive into their intentional digital detoxes, what their families learned from stepping away from tech, and how this quiet space opened up creativity, mindfulness, and presence.
From board games and barefoot beach days to flights filled with guilt-free screen time, we explore how these moments helped us reconnect—not just with our children, but with ourselves.
We also share how technology did play a role in keeping things running behind the scenes (hello, pre-scheduled podcasts and wearable tech), and how tools like Whoop and Ultra Human helped track our recovery—without taking over our lives.
Key Takeaways:
- Digital detoxing can strengthen connection, creativity, and calm.
- Tech is powerful—but only when used with intention.
- Teaching children the value of boredom and free play is priceless.
- Wearable tech like Whoop or Ultra Human can support mindful recovery.
- Pre-planning content (and using smart tools) lets you rest without dropping the ball.
