Your phone isn't just competing for your attention; it's putting your cybersecurity at risk. In this episode of SipCyber, Jen Lotze visits Grateful Day Coffee in Leadville, CO, a brand new shop already woven into the fabric of the community, to explore a surprisingly simple habit that makes you harder to scam.

Jen breaks down why constant notifications train us to react instead of think, and shares one small change that's helping her be more intentional: turning her iPhone screen red in the evenings. It's not about using your phone less, it's about creating space to notice when something feels off before you click.
