la pausa
5-week phone & scroll reset
You keep saying you'll put it down. Then you don't.
It isn't willpower or laziness. It's a phone designed to win, a life busy enough that you stopped noticing what's actually going on, and a feed that draws you back every single time.
la pausa is a 5-week group coaching program for people who are ready to change their relationship with their phone, without deleting every app and moving to the woods.
Cohort runs June 9, 16, 23, 30, July 7.
Small group. Live calls Tuesdays at 6pm PT/9pm ET
I'm Ready!DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
- You reach for your phone before your feet hit the floor.
- You open the same three apps you opened ten minutes ago.
- You can't remember the last time you read a book cover to cover.
- You're tired and you don't know exactly why, but you know the phone is in the middle of it.
- Your family WhatsApp is its own full-time job.
- You keep comparing your real life to everyone else's highlight reel.
- You've tried screen time limits, app blockers, and "just not looking." You're still here.
- You don't need more discipline. You need a different approach.
What you’ll walk away with
#1
A morning that's yours, not the feed's. A specific, repeatable morning practice. The first hour of your day stops belonging to your phone.
#2
Two practices that keep working. Built for your life, designed to stay. Not while you're in the program. After.
#3
A calmer relationship with notifications and comparison. Less reactivity.
#4
The ability to be bored without reaching. Lines. Red lights. Quiet moments. You can sit with them again.
WHY NOTHING HAS WORKED SO FAR
Most phone programs treat your phone like the problem. They block apps, count minutes, shame the scroll.
That approach works for about a week. Sometimes two. Then your phone comes back, the apps come back, and you're back where you started with added guilt.
la pausa works differently because it starts with you, not the device.
Your phone use is not a moral failing. It's a loop running between your body (the dopamine hit), your mind (the pull of comparison, avoidance, stimulation), your emotions (boredom, loneliness, the always-on pressure), and your life (the schedule, the expectations, the unspoken needs).
A program that only addresses one of those will only change your behavior for a week.
We change all four. That is what integral coaching is for.
THE APPROACH
Integral coaching is practice-based, action-oriented, and whole-person. Three things to know:
We work with all of you, not just the behavior. Body, mind, emotions, life context. The phone habit lives across all four, which is why willpower alone doesn't move it.
Change happens through practice, not insight. You can read every book about attention and still scroll for two hours. We build small, specific practices that fit your week. Practice, not homework.
What you build is designed to keep working. The goal is not to be held by a program forever. The goal is a new relationship with your phone that stays after the cohort ends.
ENROLL NOW"take ownership over my time, my space, and my energy"
“mareia gave me invaluable tools to be more intentional and thoughtful with my time, to protect my space, and to relate with others in ways that are nourishing and meaningful. This process allowed me to take ownership over my time, my space, and my energy, and channel them in directions that are better expressions of myself."

WHO'S RUNNING IT
Camila Gomez Wills is a Colombian integral coach based in Santa Cruz, California. She is certified through New Ventures West (NVW).
mareia is her practice. She works with people navigating real change, and she brings the same approach to la pausa: practical, action-oriented, no fluff, no formula. She built this program because clients kept bringing phone overwhelm into sessions and she wanted something that addressed it directly, in community, with practice that sticks.
Get StartedWHO THIS IS FOR
-
People who are over their phones and want their attention back.
-
People who have wanted to try or already have tried screen time apps, deletions, and resolutions, and are ready for something that actually sticks.
-
People who want a small group, not a course they'll watch alone.
-
People who want practices built for a real life.
WHO THIS ISN'T FOR
- Anyone looking for a digital detox or "30 days without a phone" challenge.
- Anyone who wants a therapist, not a coach.
- Anyone looking for a course to binge alone.
- Anyone who isn't ready to do the practice. The live call alone won't carry you.

Two tiers. Same experience. You pick.
Everyone in la pausa gets the same program: 5 live group calls, replays, weekly practices, and pod support.
I use tiered pricing so people with different financial realities can still be in the room. Choose the rate that feels honest for you right now.
Refund Policy
Full refund if you request it before the first live call on June 9, 2026. No questions, no friction.
After the first call, no refunds. You're in a cohort and your seat can't be filled.
If you're not sure whether the timing is right, email [email protected] before you enroll. We'll figure out together whether this cohort or a later one makes sense.
