In this episode, Dr. Rob Harter reconnects with Larissa “Larz” May, founder of the nonprofit #HalfTheStory and the newly launched for-profit social enterprise Ginko. Larissa returns to the show three years after her initial appearance to share her incredible growth journey—one that has seen her organization gain the backing of influential figures like Oprah Winfrey and Melinda French Gates, and collaborate with foundations and government leaders.
Born out of Larissa’s personal experience with mental health struggles exacerbated by social media, #HalfTheStory is dedicated to empowering the next generation of digital wellness activists. She shares how her nonprofit has grown, the importance of storytelling, and her recent launch of Ginko, the first clinician-backed, trusted AI for families with kids ages 6-14 years old, helping parents navigate screen time, social media, and online safety with peace of mind.
