"I picked up my phone to check one text. 45 minutes later, I was deep in Instagram Reels watching someone organize their pantry. For the third time."

Schnelle admits what we all know: even the experts doomscroll.

But here's the thing—you're not powerless. There are actual strategies that work. Not perfectly. Not every time. But they genuinely reduce scrolling.

In this episode, Schnelle shares five practical strategies she uses to break the doomscroll cycle. These aren't theoretical tips from someone who doesn't struggle. They're real tactics from someone who knows exactly how algorithms are designed to keep you hooked—and has figured out how to fight back.

From creating friction between you and the scroll, to retraining your algorithm, to replacing habits you didn't even know you had—these strategies address why doomscrolling happens and how to interrupt it.

The goal isn't perfection. It's awareness and intention. And if you can go from two hours of scrolling to 30 minutes? That's a win.

Perfect for: Anyone who's ever lost an hour to social media and wants it back, parents trying to model healthy tech use, anyone ready to take control of their attention.

Plus: How to teach these strategies to your kids without lecturing.
