Welcome to Absolutely Focused Radio, where clarity meets purpose and

4
00:00:14.359 --> 00:00:17.960
healing has a mic. Today we've got the Sobriety crew

5
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.920
holding it down while Daniel, your sobriety buddy, takes a

6
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.239
quick break. But don't worry, he'll be back with us soon.

00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:29.719
This week, we're merging two worlds, mental clarity and digital

8
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:35.320
safety in season four, Episode three, cyber Security for a

9
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:40.600
Clear Mind, Because protecting your peace means protecting your personal information.

10
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:45.520
Hi, I'm Jane Marie with your stats and facts. Let's

11
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:49.520
start with some facts. According to the FTC, Identity theft

12
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:52.479
cases rose by over one point one million reports in

13
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:57.000
twenty twenty three. And here's the kicker. The majority could

14
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.840
have been prevented with simple cybersecurity habits. When we think

15
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.239
about mental health, we often focus on self care, therapy

16
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:08.959
and sobriety, But what about digital self care. If your

17
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:11.480
accounts get hacked, your peace of mind takes a hit.

18
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:16.519
So here are three must do basics. Use unique passwords

19
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:21.200
for every account, turn on two factor authentication. Keep your

20
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.640
software updated, yes, even the boring updates.

21
00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:29.400
Hi, I'm Chucky, Chip your tech on deck. All right, fam,

22
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:31.719
let's check it up. You don't need to be a

23
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:35.319
coder to stay safe online. Here's my quick tech on

24
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:41.480
deck security kit, password manager, last pass or one password VPN,

25
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:46.159
Proton VPN free plan, available device security, malware bytes for

26
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:50.159
quick scans and pro tip. Schedule a digital declutter day

27
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:54.000
once a month. Delete old accounts, update passwords, and back

28
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.760
up your photos. It's like spring cleaning, but for your

29
00:01:57.799 --> 00:01:58.840
brain and your hard drive.

30
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.319
Hi, I'm curious, Joe. Let me ask you something. When

31
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.840
was the last time you checked if your email was

32
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:13.000
part of a data breach. If you're not sure, visit

33
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:21.360
haveabenploned dot com. Sometimes the first step to safety is awareness.

34
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:27.240
Now think about this. In sobriety, we protect our mental

35
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:32.159
space from triggers. In the digital world, we protect our

36
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:39.199
accounts from threats. Same principle, boundaries keep us safe. What's

37
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:43.719
one cyber boundary you can set today that your future

38
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:45.840
self will thank you for.

39
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:51.719
Marc Us the motivator inspiration for the nation. Let's go family.

40
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.240
Your safety is your power. Your clarity is your weapon.

41
00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:59.400
Every password you secure, every scam you dodge, that's you

42
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:02.599
choosing to stay in control. You fought hard for your

43
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:06.159
mental peace. Don't let a phishing email or weak passwords

44
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:09.840
steal it away. Say it with me. I protect my mind,

45
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.319
I protect my space, I protect my peace. Motivation for
