Show Notes

Tech addiction is real—and it’s stealing your time, your peace, and your purpose. But you don’t have to stay stuck.

In this powerful episode of The Chris Stefanick Show, I sit down with Andrew Laubacher, founder of Humanality, to expose how your smartphone is rewiring your brain—and what you can do to take your life back.

93% of your free time is being eaten by screens

The average teen is on social media 5+ hours/day

1 in 5 millennials has no friends

And your phone was engineered to make this worse

This conversation will give you the truth about tech addiction, the science behind attention loss, and real tools to break free—without going off the grid.
