Are We Okay? The Great Phone Breakup Day 1

In this week’s episode of Are We Doing This?, Lauren P kicks things off by recounting how her friend almost drowned in two feet of water in Mexico—because nothing says “vacation” like a near-death experience in ankle-deep waves.

Lauren B then shares her recent ADHD diagnosis, connecting the dots on a lifetime of “Wait… is this not how everyone’s brain works?”

Separately, the Laurens reflect on their former Texas era, when they felt obligated to keep up with the Joneses—and how moving away cured that instantly. They no longer get their nails done, and honestly? Freedom has never looked so chipped.

They also dive into their newest self-help adventure: How to Break Up With Your Phone by Catherine Price. They’re on Day 2 of the 30-day Phone Breakup, still recovering from Day 1’s assignment to freak yourself out. Spoiler: it worked. They learned exactly how many hours they spend on their phones and how often they’re interrupted per hour… and let’s just say the numbers were not kind.

The moral of the episode? If they’d just put their damn phones down, they actually could do all the things they claim they have no time for—cleaning, working out, reading, writing, and maybe even resurrecting their nail care era. But no promises on that last one.

A chaotic, relatable, and slightly alarming episode. Enjoy!
