Hi there! I need some help and I’m hoping you do, too.

I’m a coach who helps people to break their phone addiction (or change phone habits, put their phone down more … however you might say it), and I’d like to transfer some of my business away from in-person calls and over to email-based support.
And so… I’m looking for helpers who would help me practice. You’d get 4 weeks of free support from a coach with proven results, in exchange for your candid feedback at the end. (win-win!)

Do you fit this description?
>> You have been wanting to break a phone addiction, change your phone habits or put your phone down more…
>> You know exactly what you NEED to do, and you just need to do more of it OR actually START doing it. (Like keep your phone out of the bedroom and not scroll on it first thing in the morning or delete apps that are such a big time suck…or start exercising instead of doom scrolling…)
>> You know you could be focusing more of your time and energy on the things that truly matter to you.
>> You might have tried things like app timers/blockers, putting your phone away in another room etc… but none of it seemed to work.
>> You believe that having an accountability partner could be the thing that would help you see results, but you haven’t got to try it out yet.

If so, this is for YOU. PM me with your details (name + email) by Monday 22 Jan if you want to help me out!

What you will get (full disclosure):

  • A free, non-judgmental and supportive accountability partner for 4 weeks.
  • A Hello/Welcome sort of email from me prior to 26 Jan.
  • An email every Friday (first one on 26 Jan and last one on 16 Feb), with 3 questions that will help you create success in the week ahead. (They take 5-10 minutes to answer.)
  • The ability to ask me anything.
  • 100% confidentiality. I will not share your answers and email address with anyone else.
  • Weekly, personalized responses: I will reply to your email by the following Tuesday.

At the end of our time together, I will ask for your feedback.
That’s it! Zero pressure. 🙂
Why might this work?

  • Firstly, free information is readily available. But not accountability. Combining accountability with the new year’s energy could make this extremely effective!

  • Secondly, as you reply to the emails, you’re making a series of micro-commitments that become tougher to break since you’re making them known to another human being. (I can vouch on this from personal experience. Test this out for yourself if you’re curious ;))
    (Note: I will absolutely NOT judge you for what you did or did not do. Because at the end of the day, you’re only accountable to yourself, not me. And this also means that I will not chase you to reply to the emails, if you choose not to.)

  • Thirdly, you get to do a “brain dump” at the end of every week, reflect, evaluate, and then set goals for the following week.

  • At the end of it, you get to look back at the emails, and review your progress - all on your own terms.
    And, of course, you’d be doing me a big service, too!

A little more about me:
I’m Geraldine, and I’m also a wife, and a working mother with two young kids. After joining the workforce, I realized how much time I, and the people around me, were spending on our phones – for both work and personal reasons. Determined to live differently, I began researching how to break the negative cycle and have spent over a decade testing my discoveries on myself and helping others to do the same.

Here’re some of the results that I have helped my 1-to-1 clients with:

  • Reducing phone usage by 25-50% within the first week of working together
  • Actually being present when around their loved ones (like having a conversation with your child or partner without always looking down at the phone and really noticing their expression and voice as they speak…)
  • Create more moments of calm, and downtime as they go about their daily routine (like peacefully grinding their morning coffee and delighting in the smell instead of multitasking with your phone and kicking up anxiety, annoyance and stress)

Interested? Or curious about how this will work out?
Simply PM me with your name (or how you’d like to be addressed) and email address by Monday 22 Jan, and I will see you over at your inbox! We start on 26 Jan.
PS: Spots are limited, obviously :)
PPS: If this is for you, you’d probably know by now. Therefore I’ll be prioritizing PMs. So definitely PM me if you’re interested in doing this together. Thank you so much!
