Today, we’re tackling a topic that I know is on so many of our minds, especially as summer approaches: our kids screen time and the pervasive challenge of social media. It’s a conversation that can feel overwhelming, fraught with guilt, and honestly, sometimes a little terrifying. But it’s also one we must have.

I recently had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Nikki Petrossi, the founder of "Scrolling 2 Death," a podcast and now a non-profit dedicated to raising awareness about the impact of technology on our children. If you've ever worried about the hours your kids spend online, the content they're consuming, or the very real risks associated with it all, then this conversation is for you. We're diving into the sobering statistics, practical strategies, and the crucial role we as parents play in navigating this digital landscape.

IN THIS EPISODE: 

  • Shocking Stats & Online Dangers: Scrolling to Death founder Nikki Petrossi on screen time's real impact on kids.
  • Summer Tech Survival: Smart strategies for screen limits, parental controls, & getting kids offline.
  • Parents, It's Our Turn: Modeling healthy tech habits & why our screen use matters for our kids.
