Tech-Healthy Tips

This month, most of us are enjoying summertime activities as students of all ages get a break from school, families plan intentional time together, and the weather invites us to enjoy fun outdoors. Recently, I was at the beach with my family on an absolutely beautiful day. We watched as the couple sitting next to us--surrounded by sand, sun, and waves--remained glued to their phones for hours. It reminded me that disconnecting from our screens to interact with those around us and be present where we are can be a challenge in even the most beautiful moments. 

This month, I was joined by Andrea Davis, founder of Better Screen Time, on The Leading Tomorrow Podcast. Andrea shared from her own family's journey on learning to put screens in their proper place, and discussed the tools and tips they have created to share with others.
