When did you last spend time with someone without a phone in your hand or on the table?

It’s probably been a while . . .

And while phones absolutely enhance our lives and provide the ability to connect with people across the globe, they can also detract from our IRL relationships.

In today’s episode, Elliott and I continue our conversation on phones and relationships by considering the following question:  Does social media make you happy?

We explore the following and much more!

  • Does “technopherence” create barriers in your relationships?
  • Are you having an emotional affair with your phone?
  • Are you guilty of phubbing?
  • How “intimate” are social media connections?
  • How do attachment styles intersect with social media usage?
  • When do you pull out your phone—and more importantly, why?
  • Elliott’s ABCs of relationships and phones.

PLUS learn Elliott’s step-by-step plan for enhancing intimacy by creating the necessary structure around social media/phone usage!
