If you’ve made it to Week 3 of the Digital Habit Reset… that’s a BIG deal.

You’ve brought awareness to your habits. You’ve started to interrupt the loops that were keeping you stuck. And now you’re entering what I call the messy middle, the place where motivation fades, and routines take over.

This week, we’re not just interrupting bad habits we’re building better ones.

In this episode, I’m walking you through:

• Why habits fall apart without routine and reward
• How your brain is wired to run on autopilot (and how to rewire it with intention)
• What Psalm 90:12 teaches us about time, wisdom, and stewardship
• How a morning routine can act as a “keystone habit” that transforms everything
• Why your brain needs micro-rewards to make habit change last

If you're tired of starting strong and falling off after a few days, this episode is for you. I’ll help you shift from relying on fleeting motivation to building rhythms and routines that anchor your day even when life gets messy.

This isn’t just behavior change. It’s stewardship. It’s forming habits that reflect who God created you to be.

Welcome to Week 2 of the Digital Habit Reset.

Knowing your screen habits is a great start. But it won’t change your life.

Last week, you saw your patterns. You named your triggers. You even faced the hard truths in your screen time report. But now it’s time to do something about it.

This week is where we break the cycle, where we stop letting our phones run our days and start building new, healthier patterns on purpose.

In this episode, I’m walking you through:

• Why you keep scrolling even when you don’t want to
• What Romans 12:2 reveals about real, lasting transformation
• The brain science behind habit change and why your brain resists it
• The habit loop that’s quietly running your life (and how to interrupt it)
• How to shift your environment so you can make better digital choices, effortlessly

Good news. Your brain can change. And so can your habits.

The habits that feel automatic today didn’t get there by accident. They were formed through repetition and that means they can be unlearned the same way. One intentional, God-led step at a time.

In this episode you’ll discover how to create friction between impulse and action, how to rewire your daily cues, and most importantly, how to invite the Holy Spirit into the moment when you’re most tempted to reach for your phone. This is where awareness becomes action.

And remember: the Digital Habit Reset Guide is your daily tool to walk this out.

Grab it now at 👉 julianneaugust.com/reset. If you are on my Digital Habit Reset email list, this week you’ll also receive your Week 2 bonus, a whole bunch of custom truth-filled phone wallpapers to help you stay focused every time you pick up your device.

You don’t have to stay stuck in the scroll.

Ever feel like your phone has more control over your life than you’d like to admit?

This is the kickoff episode to a powerful 4-part podcast series called The Digital Habit Reset and in today’s episode, we’re starting with Week 1: Awaken Your Awareness.

I created this Reset because I know what it feels like to love Jesus and want to live focused and free but still find yourself stuck in mindless scroll loops. That’s why we’re not just talking about change, we’re doing it, with a simple, step-by-step path to transformation -- starting today.

In this episode, I’ll guide you through:

• What the "fresh start effect" is (and why Mondays are magic)
• The verse that anchors Week 1and why honest self-examination is where real freedom begins
• Why awareness is always the first step to lasting habit change
• The neuroscience behind your screen habits and how to gently interrupt them
• How to become a detective of your own digital patterns (without shame)
