[0:10] System check sobriety in a tech saturated world welcome back to absolutely focused radio i'm your announcer anna harry wigo and today we're logging into a special session inside the virtual realm Here, our AI-powered sobriety crew is running a system check. They're navigating sober living in a tech-heavy world, decoding temptations, dodging glitches, and upgrading their mindset. What you'll hear are real stories, spoken with humor, honesty, and hope. The crew wakes up inside a digital city of constant notifications and endless pings. Their mission? Keep their sobriety systems running smooth. I log into my mindfulness dashboard, dodging old triggers disguised as friendly check-in texts. I reroute my energy from corrupted bar tabs to meditation loops that actually refresh me. I run daily diagnostics, patching emotional bugs with breathwork and affirmations. I inspect the code base, asking, is this tech helping us heal or just distracting us? Don't let external data overwrite your internal truth. Last week, I almost clicked on an emotional phishing link. An old trigger in disguise. But one pause. One breath.
[1:36] Saved me from a full system crash.
[1:39] Syncing joy with your schedule is like setting permissions. You decide who, and what, gets access to your piece. I ghosted my bar tab like it was spam. Now I get high on clarity, not cocktails. Setbacks are just bugs in the system. You don't shame the code. You debug it. Journaling? That's my daily patch. Real question, are we using tech to heal, or just swapping one addiction for another? It's not the tool. It's the intention.
[2:11] A hammer builds, or it breaks. Tech's the same. Ask yourself, is it helping you reflect or just helping you hide? I use apps like mirrors. They don't fix me, but they show me where I am. Your feed is your playlist. If it's chaos, unsubscribe. My phone is a wellness device. Gratitude logs, breathing timers, pause apps. Not perfect, but it keeps me steady. And boundaries? They aren't just for people. They're for platforms, too.
