In this episode of Doing Life Differently, I’m talking with my longtime friend Emily Thomas about something we’re all feeling.

It is getting harder and harder to protect our kids’ attention in a screen filled world.

We talk about social media, iPads, and the difference between communal screens and individual screens. We also get really practical about what to do when you feel like you’re the only family with boundaries.

In this conversation, we cover:

1. Why going first is a gift to other parents
2. How to start making changes without swinging to extremes
3. What to do when your kids push back
4. How to find support even if your community is not like minded
5. Simple first steps that can actually stick

I’m linking Emily’s Substack so you can keep learning from her and find encouragement for the road ahead!
