Description
<p>My guest today, Cody Cook-Parrott, used to bargain with alcohol. Then they caught themselves making the same deals with Instagram. <em>Just ten minutes. Only on Tuesdays.</em> They had 70,000 followers and deleted every single one. Not paused. Gone. We talk about why your willpower is not the problem, how your attention is being stolen by design, and the one question that can pull you out of any doom-scroll: <em>What am I avoiding?</em> A friend once told Cody, "God is not in your phone." This conversation is about what you find when you finally look away.</p><br><p><strong> </strong>00:00 The Real Cost of Distraction</p><p> 03:09 Introducing Cody Cook-Parrott</p><p> 04:12 From 70k Followers to Deleting Everything</p><p> 07:00 Bargaining with Screens (Like Booze)</p><p> 08:45 ADHD, Masking, and a Late Diagnosis</p><p> 11:12 Defining "The Practice of Attention"</p><p> 13:39 How to Run a Full Attention Audit</p><p> 17:30 Podcast Promo & Resources (Mid-Roll)</p><p> 20:18 Distraction vs. Connection: Finding the Line</p><p> 25:33 The Digital Detox as a Spiritual Pilgrimage</p><p> 29:45 Can a Book Succeed Without Instagram?</p><p> 31:51 Creativity, Spirituality, and Feeling Closer to the Earth</p><p> 35:21 Rediscovering Hobbies (And Why Majong Works)</p><p> 38:51 The Power of a Solo Retreat (Even at Home)</p><p> 42:00 Where to Find Cody & Final Wisdom</p><p><strong> </strong></p><br><p><strong>LEARN MORE ABOUT GUEST:</strong></p><p>· <strong>Website: </strong><a href="https://codycookparrott.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>codycookparrott.com</strong></a></p><p>· <strong>Podcast: Common Shapes</strong></p><p>· <strong>Newsletter: Monday, Monday (Free)</strong></p><p>· <strong>Latest Book: <em>The Practice of Attention: Cultivating Presence in a Distracted World</em></strong></p><br><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>JOIN MY COMMUNITY</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>In The Space Between membership, you’ll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.
