WHY I WENT BACK TO A FLIP PHONE (AND I'M NEVER GOING BACK)

Your smartphone isn't just a phone anymore. It's an open door. TIME FOR A BURNER PHONE! What if the next level of freedom isn't buying more technology... but reclaiming access to yourself? In this video, I explain why I voluntarily switched back to a flip phone, and why I believe privacy, boundaries, and self-governance are becoming the real luxuries of the digital age. For years, we've been told that more connectivity equals more freedom. I believe we're entering an era where the opposite is becoming true. This isn't about being anti-technology. I use AI. I teach technology. I build businesses online. This is about choosing when the world gets access to you instead of giving it away by default. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by notifications, distracted by endless scrolling, or like your attention is constantly being rented out, this conversation is for you. Because... Access is the new asset. In this video: Why I switched back to a flip phone Why data centers and digital dependency are connected Why privacy is becoming a luxury How boundaries create freedom Why attention is your most valuable resource The difference between using technology and being used by it How Sabbath, self-governance, and intentional living intersect Why I believe reducing unnecessary points of access is one of the most important skills of this decade If this video challenged your thinking, leave a comment: What's ONE digital boundary you're willing to create this year?
