This week, Busy and Caissie are still basking in the glow of all the info they learned from The Points Guy and waiting for their Amex Gold cards with 4x points on groceries to arrive. While they wait, they discuss why Busy’s trip to visit BFF (Michelle Williams) was cut short, the concept of body doubling in ADHD, the pig pot raffle status, what BFF Michelle gave Busy for Christmas and how, hopefully, not to get scammed by a fake call from the CIA. Listen HERE!

Okay I'm halfway through and maybe you will get to it, but is the game 2048?? I was also obsessed and sometimes still play on the plane (Delta has it on their TVs).
In the episode you discussed things that help with phone addiction, like turning your phone black and white.
Something that has helped me immensely is the Digital Wellness settings on my Android phone. I'm sure Apple has an equivalent.
I gave myself a 45 minute a day timer on the apps I was scrolling the most: Instagram and Facebook. After that time, the app will grey out and won't let me use until the next day. It has helped me so much.
Do I sometimes cheat and reset the timer to give myself more time? Only occasionally, especially after I make a new reel and want to see if I got views, comments, and likes. Most days, I stick to my time limits a day.
I also use the Digital Wellness to help block out my work app (Class Dojo) from 6:00 PM - 6:00 AM. This helps me to keep my work/life boundary and the office hours I communicated at the beginning of the year.
I can't speak highly enough about how much the Digital Wellness settings have helped me in this area.
