The Unrecorded Life: Lessons from a Mind Too Plugged In
Somewhere between the third hour of scrolling and the moment you realize you can't remember what you were thinking about five minutes ago, something shifts. Your mind stops feeling like yours. Thoughts arrive already interrupted. Silence becomes unbearable. You reach for your phone in every pause, every uncomfortable moment, every gap in conversation.
The Unrecorded Life is about what happens when you decide to get your mind back. Not through dramatic digital detoxes or moving to a cabin in the woods, but through honest examination of what you're actually reaching for when you pick up your phone, and what you're running from.
Written by someone who lived through years of scattered attention and found a way back, this book explores the gray area between mindless scrolling and cutting technology out entirely. It examines why we document our lives instead of living them, why boredom feels like torture, why staying informed has become indistinguishable from staying anxious.
Through personal reflection and exploration of modern digital life, it offers a path toward balance that actually fits into real life.
