We hit unsubscribe—and not just to save a few bucks. In this episode of Real Talk with Ben and Kimi, we share why we canceled our Netflix and Disney+ subscriptions and what we’re doing instead. From wanting less overstimulation and more imagination for our kids, to being mindful about the content slipping into “family-friendly” shows, this was a values-based decision we couldn’t ignore.
We dive into:
Why we want our kids to know what boredom feels like
The power of fewer choices and less screen time—for them and us
What we’re using instead (spoiler: we love Angel Studios)
How this shift has sparked more creativity, connection, and adventure
If you’ve ever felt uneasy about what’s streaming into your home—or just want to raise kids who play more and scroll less—this episode is for you. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being intentional.
