"We've got to live in the modern world, we've got to work online, we've got to interact online, but we don't have to be online for everything." - Colin Corby

Amidst growing concerns about excessive screen time and the impacts of digital immersion on mental health and familial bonds, conversations about reducing dependency on technology and reclaiming control over our digital consumption have become vital.
