How to Live Smartphone Free (From a 20 Year Old) with Yunus M.

What happens when a 20-year-old decides to completely unplug—from smartphones, social media, and the digital world?

In this episode, I talk with Yunus Maximus, a bold, creative soul who's chosen a countercultural path in today's tech-saturated world. We explore how living without a phone has deepened his art, saved his mental health, and strengthened his human connections. His story will make you rethink your relationship with technology—and your own creativity.

We talk about:

🔹 Why Yunus ditched his phone and never looked back

🔹 The link between digital detox and artistic expression

🔹 Finding community and purpose offline

🔹 What it means to trust your own path in a hyper-connected world

If you've been craving more presence, art, or authenticity—this one's a must-listen.
