Technology makes life easier—but what happens when it starts doing so much for us that we forget how to do things ourselves?

In this episode of Red Lips Real Talk, the ladies take a funny, nostalgic, and sometimes unsettling look at the skills disappearing as technology and AI become part of everyday life. From cursive writing and paper maps to physical books, basic communication, and problem-solving, they ask whether we're simply evolving—or becoming a little too dependent on convenience.

The conversation also turns to education, college, AI's impact on future careers, and the pressure young people face when choosing a path in a world that's changing faster than ever. It's not about resisting technology. It's about figuring out which human skills are still worth protecting as we move forward.

Because maybe progress isn't the problem. Maybe the real question is: what don't we want to lose along the way?
