Summary

In this week’s episode, Jess kicks off a brand-new mini-series on The Jess Connolly Podcast called Simple + Supernatural, starting with a conversation that hits close to home: our phones.

This isn’t just about screen time. It’s about waking up to our real lives, staying present in what matters most, and creating room to actually hear from God in the middle of the noise.

Jess shares some eye-opening stats, invites you into her own honest journey, and offers both simple + supernatural shifts that can help you take back your time, focus, and peace.

If you’re craving less distraction and more connection with God, with people, and with your purpose, this episode is your gentle nudge (and bold invitation) to make space for what matters.

Let’s go.

0:00.0	Hey friends, I'm Jess Connolly. I'm an author, a coach, a Bible teacher, and a local church leader,
0:07.1	and I love talking to real people who know what it means to have full lives, but also want to walk in abundance.
0:14.5	This podcast is for you. It's not my podcast. It's ours. It's for people who crave lighthearted conversations and deeply
0:23.4	spiritual truth. It's for people who are busy, tired, waiting, growing, dreaming, working,
0:30.4	or praying about what's next. Wherever you're listening from, if it's quiet, mundane, or busy,
0:38.8	I am praying for you and I'm so glad you're here from, if it's quiet, mundane, or busy, I am praying for you,
0:41.7	and I'm so glad you're here. Let's go.
0:52.0	Today, I'm sharing what could be a deep, dark secret if I let it be. But instead, I'm going to let in the light. This is one of my biggest struggles. I feel like
0:58.2	life is slipping away too fast and I'm on my phone too much. And I just don't want to live like this
1:06.8	anymore. So this week's episode is called simple and supernatural digital detox. We're talking
1:15.1	about what it might look like to simply and supernaturally step away from our phones,
1:21.8	be on technology less, and live more fully awake. Let's go. All right, pals, I got to kick this conversation off with
1:33.5	a personal confession. If I'm being honest, one of the things that I find is probably the most
1:40.9	honest critique for people in my life is, I'm just on my phone too much. I'm just on my phone
1:47.4	too much. I don't enjoy it. I don't enjoy that I've always got a phone nearby. I don't enjoy
1:53.0	that I'm maybe more likely to pick it up during a conversation than anybody else. And the thing is,
1:59.9	what's wild for me is that actually it's not that I don't try to
2:03.5	work on it. I'm actually pretty cognizant of it. I've been trying to work on my technology for the last
2:08.8	few years. And still, it is such an issue for me. And so I don't know if you've been around
2:17.0	the podcast for any amount of time,
2:18.4	but you might put this together. I'm a girl who loves technology. I like technology. I did an
2:22.9	episode a couple of weeks ago about chat GPT. I love chat GPT. I love using electronics and technology
