#36: Larissa May is the founder of Half the Story, a non-profit dedicated to helping the next generation develop healthier relationships with tech through community, education and advocacy. Larissa and I discuss her journey to starting Half the Story and the sociological, psychological and economical implications of our collective obsession with being online. Larissa offers up some solutions and ideas for how to course correct and create digital boundaries in order to empower the next generation’s relationship with the internet.   

Today, Larissa and I talk about: 

 

• Programs at Half the Story that are helping kids fall back in love with the real world 
• Changes that have to happen with tech giants, consumers and creators 
• The pros and cons of shifting from web2 to web3
• The most dangerous part of social media that people might be engaging in and don't even realize it
• Her advice for people experiencing digital burnout 
• The difference between sharing information and stories online 

 

“Your digital wellness routine is like nutrition and fitness. If you don't schedule it into your calendar, it's not going to happen.”  #MAYFAIRWORLD
