Digital Detox Expert: How Technology Is Destroying Your Focus and Health! Colin Corby
Thriving Minds with Alberto ZandiShow Notes
This week Alberto sat down with Colin Corby, a leading digital detox expert with over three decades of experience in technology, health, and behavioural change.
In this conversation, they explore how constant stimulation, multitasking, and screen exposure quietly erode focus, sleep, energy, and emotional resilience. Colin explains why technology itself is not the enemy, but how it replaces movement, rest, presence, and human connection.
This episode is about reclaiming control, not rejecting technology, and learning how to live and work with it without sacrificing your health.
You will learn • Why constant phone stimulation increases stress and burnout • How technology kills attention span and focus • How to break phone addiction without quitting technology • How boredom silence and presence improve clarity and creativity

Kaspar Basse founded Joe & The Juice in Copenhagen in 2002 with a few thousand dollars and an ambition that was anything but small: he wanted to build something that could compete with Starbucks. Two decades later, Joe & The Juice has grown into a global brand with over 500 locations and was valued at $1.8 billion in 2026. But Kaspar believes one of the biggest mistakes companies make happens precisely when they become successful. As businesses grow, they introduce managers, processes, controls and layers of approval to protect what they have built. And in doing so, they can gradually remove the very thing that made them successful in the first place: culture, and quality. Kaspar does not believe great company culture comes from music, office perks, parties or paying slightly more than your competitors. It comes from people feeling agency, challenged, trusted, capable of improving and proud of what they do.
