Listen "Digital Detox in an AI World: Reclaim Focus, Identity, and Energy with Colin Corby"
Episode Synopsis
On this episode of Soul Sparks, we cut through the noise of a hyper-connected, AI-accelerated life. Tech speaker and mindset coach Colin Corby, creator of Digital Detox Coach, explains why we’ve reached a tipping point: devices shape identity, fragment attention, and drain energy—unless we build sustainable habits. We unpack practical, science-backed resets (from 20-second vision breaks to 15-minute recovery blocks), identity protection in the age of AI “friends,” and how to perform like a “business athlete” without burning out. Clear, direct, and actionable—this conversation helps you detox without rejecting tech, so you can think deeper, connect better, and live on your terms.
About the guest :
Colin Corby is a technology speaker, endurance-trained mindset coach, and creator of Digital Detox Coach. Drawing on decades in tech and performance psychology, he helps professionals and teams reduce digital overload, protect cognitive bandwidth, and build sustainable, human-first workflows.
Key takeaways:
Smartphones and AI have created a tipping point: tools now anticipate behavior and subtly shape choices—guard your agency with clear use-boundaries.
Attention spans are shrinking (frequent task-switching stresses the brain); train single-task focus and close extra tabs/apps when doing deep work.
Treat recovery like an athlete: sleep, nutrition, nature time, and human connection are productivity infrastructure, not luxuries.
Start small: a 20-second screen break (look at distant objects) protects eyes; 10–15-minute recovery blocks restore focus and energy.
Build new habits over time (~66+ days on average); change environments to remove cues (no-device zones, paper books, offline activities).
Identity is shaped by experiences—more online time = more external shaping (algorithms, nudges, AI personas). Rebalance with offline experiences that involve the whole body (movement, music, play).
Balance innovation with sustainability: you can use tech without being used by it; decide what you control (your attention, schedule, inputs).
Digital choices carry environmental costs (energy, e-waste); mindful use is also climate-conscious behavior.
