Scrolling 2 Death

Mirror, Mirror: What Our Tech Habits Teach Our Kids (with Titania Jordan)


Listen Later

We spend so much time stressing about our kids’ screen time — but have you ever stopped to ask, what about mine? The truth is, our kids are watching us way more than we realize. Every time we pick up our phones at the dinner table or scroll while they’re talking to us, we’re showing them what “normal” tech use looks like.


In this episode, I brought in Titania Jordan from Bark Technologies to have an honest, eye-opening conversation about how our habits shape theirs. We swap personal stories, dig into the latest research, and share what we’ve both learned (sometimes the hard way) about modeling balance with our devices.


This isn’t about guilt-tripping parents — because let’s be real, we’re all figuring this out as we go and no one's perfect. It’s about awareness. It’s about realizing that the little things we do every day add up, and that we actually have the power to set a different tone at home. If you’ve ever wondered how to raise kids with healthier relationships to tech, this episode will give you some hope, perspective, and maybe even the nudge you’ve been needing to put your own phone down first.
