Break from addictive apps with proven strategies for long-term change!
“I am very glad that I am doing The 5-Week Phone Fight. Why?
My attention is back. It is palpable.
I have more energy in the morning. I am doing more creative work and focusing for longer periods of time. I am filling my time with meaty, interesting things like reading and writing and thinking and being in nature and being present with others.
I am less restless. I feel the itch for a quick dopamine hit, but it goes away pretty quickly. As a result, I am not spending my time on shallow distractions.
In short, instead of frittering away four or five hours a day on my phone, I am spending my precious, finite time on things I’m truly enjoying and that I’m not going to regret.
It feels GREAT. I’m SO glad I am doing this.”

Hi, I’m Emmy Laybourne, a novelist, mom, and writing teacher.
Last spring I hit rock bottom with a phone addiction I was keeping a secret from everyone. For months, I had been in a digital nose-dive -- scrolling and gaming for hours a day. I felt crabby, foggy-headed, my productivity was in the garbage, and I felt irritable with my kids, distant from my husband, and my life felt flat.
I thought I was exhausted and worn-out from burnout and stress caused by, oh, you know… the state of the world.
I thought my phone was actually helping me - helping me to de-stress and calm down. But the phone itself was the problem.
After one particularly bleak, all-night mobile gaming session –- just me and my phone in my home office for 7 hours, I realized my behavior had to change.
To be fair, I’d already tried everything out there to break away from my phone -- reading books, changing the settings on my phone, installing time-limit apps. None of it worked.
I needed something deeper, with structure, accountability, and a way to break out of the isolation and shame I was feeling.
So, I went all in -- researching phone addiction, dopamine cycles, and how to change behavior. I studied how phones are rewiring our brains and I interviewed friends and family.
Yep, I created my own recovery program for phone addiction.
And, friend, IT WORKS!

“Me and my girlfriend did the Phone Fight together and I don't think I can imagine going back to my old phone habits. We found ourselves having longer, better conversations and spending more quality (phone free) time together. I can't recommend it enough.'”
