How to get text notifications on watch even if phone is unlocked?

I want my watch to always notify me of a text via a sound or vibration. I don't want the notification to only go to my phone because I may be in a different room from my phone temporarily, yet my phone is unlocked, preventing the notice going to watch.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 8
