What if your phone could stop following you around?
In Episode 159 of Medium Lady Talks, Erin Vandeven sits down with creator and stay-at-home mom Kassadi Gabriel—the mind behind the viral idea of “landline mode.” Together they unpack how simple technology boundaries can restore your patience, creativity, and peace of mind in a culture addicted to constant connection.
They talk about:
-
What “landline mode” really is and how to try it yourself
-
Why boundaries around your phone help you like yourself more
-
How overstimulation and mental load show up in motherhood
-
The myth of “consistency” as the new hustle culture
-
How curiosity (not perfection) brings hobbies and creativity back to life
This episode is part of Erin’s Phone Free Fall series—a season-long experiment in reclaiming attention, slowing down, and noticing what real rest feels like.
