If you’re considering a digital detox or social media detox but keep falling back into phone addiction, this video breaks down what’s actually happening to your dopamine system — and how to reset it without turning it into another self improvement project.

In this video, I share a real-world social media experiment and the psychology of scrolling. As an executive coach, I help high-performers recognize when effort is no longer the solution. We’ll break down the dopamine reset stages so you can move past digital addiction and return to deep work and clarity.
